I want to give the Orc strongholds an upgrade.

Overhauls the exterior area of Narzulbur Stronghold, Expanding It and making the area better fortified.



The following are not required for my mod to function, it will function on It's own. These are my personal favorite mods I enjoy to add an extra layer of Immersion and upgraded visuals.

Nordic Stonewalls 
FYX - 3D Stockades - Walls and Gate

FYX - 3D Stockades

Spice of Life - Orc Strongholds SE

Daedric Shrines - All in One

Children of the Pariah - An Orc NPC Overhaul

Daughters of Malacath

Unreal 4K-8K Mammoth Skeleton ReTexture

better ropes for skyrim SE

Solitude Objects SMIMed - festival ropes

Giant Hanging Bones Retexture

Solstheim Objects SMIMed - High Poly Dark Elf Furniture

Dovahnique's Diverse Dark Elf Lanterns (BOS - ENB Lights - High Poly)

DYNDOLOD USERS

- You will need to re run DynDolod after installing my mod, otherwise you'll get pop in of the walls and towers from a distance. I personally cba with dyndolod anymore and just use fog and mist mods lol

Thank you for reading,  ENJOY.

For Skyrim players who love Orc strongholds and want Narzulbur to look more impressive from the outside. If you're a completionist who wants every hold to feel unique, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or interior overhauls – this is purely cosmetic exterior work.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage this mod easily.
  • Check for compatibility patches if you use other mods that modify Narzulbur's exterior, like city overhauls.
  • Load order usually doesn't matter for simple mesh/texture replacers, but placing it after major overhauls can help avoid conflicts.
