📋 About This Mod

An MCO|ADXP moveset for Greatswords, inspired by some HEMA techniques and stylized and balanced for gameplay.

This is designed for the MCO behavior and will not work without it, for its Vanilla behavior counterpart, check out 'Leviathan Animations II' Greatsword Attacks.

Some of the attacks are inspired by HEMA's "Half-Swording" techniques, here is a neat introductory video by Skallagrim showcasing the uses of Half-Sword Thrust and Murder-Stroke/Mordhau attacks:
