Plus, the open facemask style is just cool!	Ebony Replacer Revival Its just a basic mesh Replacer for the Ebony Armor. Male has Cuirass, Gloves and Boots. Female has cuirass and an alternative chainmail mesh.
Rogue Blade Armor A neat blades armor mashup that comes with a new backpack and two belts!

Tips and Tricks.

As you gear up your game with the armors listed, you'll find that most of these are merge friendly but be careful as some involve quests to obtain the armors. Don't go merging quest mods unless you know what you are doing.

Don't think you are done, you still need WEAPONS right? One last page to go, citizen!

PS. Don't forget to rerun your bashed patch if the mods add to the level lists.
