GET THOSE PANSY BOY-LOVING ANCIENT GREEK BRONZE-HEADED FOOLS AWAY FROM ME!!!

Meh...

Not going to bite.

Roman weapons and armor mod.

Why do people like mods that don't fit the game at all?

OFFTOPIC: Imagine being born to Spartan parents, being forced into the agoge while your mother screams. For many years the teachers brutally discipline you, until you learn to deal with such an experience. They deem you ready and send you off to your brothers in the Spartan Army. A year later, they send you to fight the invaders from the peninsula to the west. You are ready, you are a Spartan, the greatest warrior in all the world. All that awaits is for you to raise your dory and...- *head is penetrated with a pilum*

RIP, my dear Dionysios.

Is there something wrong with that?

Ugly Helmets? Check.

Ugly Shields? Check.

Ugly horses? Check.

The spears are the only thing good in that picture and still nothing is impressive or unique about them.

I can't stand it when a mod does not fit the texture or art style of the game. Those people that use those doll faced women for example... someone needs to back hand those people as hard as they can.

But then it wouldn't be fun lurking the screenshots thread.

Thats like asking why are mudcrabs horrible filthy creatures dude.

The only real change I would have liked to the look of the Imperials was perhaps something more warmer looking to fit the cold climate they often find themselves in whilst travelling Skyrim.

That and Officer Armor... "yea lets give the Stormcloaks Officer Armor" "what about the Imperials?" "ohh just a helmet will do" http://imageshack.us/a/img514/4691/fuuuuuuuu.jpg

Yeah something like that. At the very least some pants under their skirt would have made sense.

Yeah, an option to purchase a cloak would be nice. Still, I like the look of the Imperial armor, especially the heavy set with the spartan helmet or Imperial officer helmet. The stormcloak bear man armor is pretty unique too. It's the copy and paste Stormcloak guard armor that I'm not a fan of. Not unique enough. All the guards wear it. Overall I feel bethesda did a great job with armor. Alot of historical influenced armor and pure fantasy armor. I like it.

No capes, no cloaks unless you plan on running around making air plane noises and yelling "I'M SUPERMAN".

Bunch of faires they are.

Anyways since the Mede Empire is a dying Empire being slowly swallowed up by another rising super power I think having a Byzantine like influence would be suitable.

Those darn Thebans and their superior tactics!

Byzantine... as in Komnenian or shortly after the fall of Rome (like Justinian?)

I was thinking Palaiologos but I suppose Komnenian could do. Definately not Justinian considering that the Byzantine Empire was pretty powerful and stable under his reign with the exception of the plague.
