Katana Collection

Zero points for an imaginative title, but nevertheless, I urge you to reconsider!

This mod adds a collection of katanas and dai-katanas to the game, created with excellent meshes and textures from InsanitySorrow (big up to him), and stats devised by myself (mod alias is s0ulShatter). They are available for purchase from most weapon vendors around Cyrodiil. Following this post will be the official readme, but here are some extra notes.

- Weapons stats are loosely based on vanilla weapon equivalents (longswords for katanas, and claymores for dai-katanas), increased slightly to reflect the skill and mastery required to forge weapons of this caliber. Some stats have been set to match (as they have no vanilla equivalent) in a lore-friendly and these are:

Elven and Mithril
Daedric and Crusader
Amber and Madness (SI Lore)

- A spreadsheet of the stats is available, just send me a PM (OpenOffice or Excel format).

Awesome! You can never have too many Katanas! Just out of curiosity, what method did you use to add the Katanas to all the merchants?

I added the items to the VendorWeaponBlade leveled list, in future releases I'll be adding them to loot lists as well

Link will be up in a minute or so?

Looking at the screenshots it looks like the blades don't match up, sizewise, with the sheaths. Not sure if it just has to do with my own perception, but it's bothering me.

It's your perception

They do, I will upload some in-game shots later

Don't let it bother you. These were made by InsanitySorrow. They will definitely match up in game.
