Why this mod?
1 - I made this for myself and decided to share, because i like the idea that depending on your "fighting style" different things should happen.
2 - If you are a MCO/BFCO + OAR user you can expand on the mod to include animations based on the stances.
3 - I like the versatility to deal with different types of enemies/encounters without the need to switch weapons.
4 - I like the idea of leting the player decide what weapon they want to use without forcing them to use another one and still keep it balanced in some way, since you still have to take the perks to use their effect.
5 - You can combo the perk effects without needing to switch weapons, keeping the flow of the combat.
Let me know if you find any bugs.
