📋 About This Mod

Covers the standing, forward, backward, left and right power attacks. The animations are provided as vanilla replacers, to be used as is, or to be placed in your folder structure of choice (PCEA mods, Combo/Stances Animation Framework, DAR, etc...).

The animations apply by default to both the player character and NPCs.

Some of the attacks are inspired by the HEMA techniques of "Half-Swording", here is a neat video by Skallagrim showcasing some of its uses in action:
