Tamriel is a dangerous place. Protect your horse from danger with this beautiful handcrafted armor!
This mod adds armored horses, replacing each cities buyable player horse with a unique armored horse. This mod is compatible with BETTER HORSES which adds horse STORAGE, horse invulnerability, and horse AI. The normal saddles are still used by NPCs.
Whiterun: Nordic Steel Horse Armor
Markarth: Dwarven Horse Armor
Windhelm: Ebony Horse Armor
Riften: LEATHER Horse Armor
Solitude: Dragonbone Horse Armor
Frost: Altered Model & Texture from Sader325’s Divine Saint Mod
There is and ingame NPC guide (NOT A VENDOR) located at the whiterun stables to answer any common questions you may have.
If your horse has no armor, you may need to select a horse in the console and quickly enter “disable” then “enable” (most likely a compatibility issue) to refresh the model. Also (use with caution) you can try console “kill” and “resurrect” on target.
