Star Wars. Skyrim. Not two things you'd naturally put together most likely, but one modder has proven a mash-up between Bethesda's beloved fantasy game and the hit Disney+ sci-fi show can be a pretty wonderful thing.
Skyrim mod makers Araanim, AnthonyPodavin, and Kryptonian have posted a new creation to Skyrim's slice of Nexus Mods called 'Legends of Mandalore', which adds an "arsenal of ancient 'Mandalorian' weapons and armours that can [be] found, re-forged, customised, and painted". Based on the game's Ancient Nord armour, the Mando-style kit includes things like light and heavy Be'skar armour (with painted variants), Be'skar weapons, heavy and one-handed crossbows, saberdarts, a vambrace flamethrower, and even the signature jetpacks, though these are functional only as carry weight-adding backpacks rather than actual jetpacks. Oh, and mod also includes the ultimate weapon of Mandalorian lore: the Darksaber. Oooh.
But it's not as simple as tracking down a merchant and spending all your hard-looted Septims on the Mando kit - you'll have to track them down throughout a "number of super-secret Coverts scattered around Skyrim", as the modders explain.
