Mod by lukaluka94

Note: Please Endorse the mod if you like it and enjoy it, as it motivates me to continiue my work"

Another note: It would be nice if anyone made a YouTube video about the mod, so that other people can see and enjoy it.

And again, another note: I'm working on Shields right now, and suggestions or criticism are always welcome. If anyone has some ideas about armors or anything else, let me now and I'll consider to add them.

============================================================
Description:
============================================================
Medieval Armory mod adds 19 new craft-able and upgrade-able medieval armors to Skyrim, including couple of helmets to go with the armor. It includes armors from famous Knightly Orders such as Knights Templar or Knights Hospitaller, and different countries and their coat of arms like Spanish, French, English etc. More armors and shield will be added in the near future.

============================================================
How to acquire armors:
============================================================
There are two ways to get the armors:
1) Craft them. They can be crafted and upgraded at any forge, as long as you have - Advanced Armors perk. They are located in - Steel category.

Or if you are like me

2) Get them straight away from a chest located on the top of the Guardhouse in Windhelm. When you enter the city, its the first building on the left, and you can go up from the right side.

============================================================
Installation:
============================================================
Normal - Just copy the "Data" folder located in "Medieval Armory.rar" file to your Skyrim directory, and overwrite if asked.

Heavy - To install the heavy version of the armor, just copy the .ESP file located in "Medieval Armory - Heavy.rar" to your Data folder in Skyrim directory. IN THIS CASE DELETE MedievalArmory.esp (There must be only ONE .esp file active)

============================================================
Uninstallation:
============================================================
Just delete the folders - "CA" in Meshes (in Data) and "CA" in Textures (also in Data). Also MedievalArmory.esp


============================================================
Armor stats:
============================================================
I Tried to balance it as much as I could. Armors included in the NORMAL version of the mod are LIGHT, their stats are: Armor 30, Encumbrance 7.

For the people who prefer Heavy armors, I've included HEAVY version as well (Separate small download), their stats are: Armor 35, Encumbrance 20.

Some of the Helmets are Heavy, some of them are Light. If there are some balancing issues, let me know and I'll fix them in the next update.
