Merc Armor Bundle




Welcome!
Ever wanted your hired mercenaries to look the part of sell swords trying to make a quick buck on a bad job. Well now they can with merc armor bundle!

This took a little longer than I had expected but I am happy with the result. Mercenary Armor bundle expands on the armor that is in-game. Kind of like my clothing mods but this time for armor. Unlike my other bundles that were just crafting stand alones this mod goes ahead and expands on the mercenaries in-game by giving them the new armor to wear.



Whats Included?
This mod includes several new custom made armor pieces and backpacks. They include:
4 New helmet types - Faceplate, Round Zukin, Kabuto Helm, and Kabuto Helm with Faceplate
7 New Armor Types - Left/right/double sleeved Kote and Mercenary Dō/left/right/and doublesleeved versions
3 New Armor Pants - Heavy, Medium, and Light mercenary leg plates
1 New Boot Armor - Mercenary Suneate
6 New Backpacks - Mercenary ropes, Mercenary Ropes Crossed, and Mercenary Captain Flags

All of the armor types are colorable, Mercs color is black.



Stats and Obtaining
All items can be researched under Merc Armor from Cat's Clothing category. All of the armor can be crafted at the following:
Backpacks - Clothing Bench
Faceplate and Round Zukin - Armour Chain bench
Other Armor - Armour Plate Bench

The stats for the armor vary but the general rule is this. Faceplate and Zukin offer less protection than the full Kabuto. The Kote arm sleeves are considered light armor and the Dō is medium. The leg plates vary on light medium or heavy and the shoes only offer medium.



Lore Friendly
I tried to keep it lore friendly by basing the armor after concept art i found of Japanese mercenary bandits. I thought it looked like it would fit into kenshi well as it was dirty and clearly scrapped together. I tried to mimic that with this mod ny making the armor used and battle worn,

Questions?
Q. What ref did you use?
A. mostly concept art above and real life ref.

Q.Why isnt anyone else wearing these?
A. They should be? if they are not tell me!

Q. NCE Patch When?

Sorry you are seeing that issue but my mod wouldnt have anything to do with that its simply a cosmetic mod

Ok I have to delete this. It causes critical problems with mercs. Not sure if it just messes with my other mods but ever since I got this the new mercs wearing the new armor RUN INTO THE EARTH NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN!

So im tired of losing the cats...

The armor looks amazing. The best looking in the game in terms of lore friendly. However are the stats correct?? This is the WORST stat armor a merc can wear??

I would like to also see a full samurai armor version from you (e.g. for UC) because IMO the merc armor looks a bit more authentic than original Kenshi samurai armor - still post-apocalyptic without colorful details of historical Japanese armor but also without weirdly placed armor plates.

may i request a version of the armor with Sode and more leg protection?
a lot of japanese armors had the tassets overlap and go down lower on the thigh
thanks in advance

I feel like I should let people know that the legplates (skirt more like it) are compatible with nudity mods. The leg plates add in a thong-like underwear that are the same colour as vanilla underwear, so they're normally invisible without a nudity mod.

If I could make a suggestion to Cat, can you add in an item that is JUST the thong? I like to role play sometimes as a naked warrior, kinda like an old time Viking or barbarian.

Hi! Can I take your mods for my overhaul mod SLOFK? I will indicate you in the credits, or if desired, I can add you to the authors.

Well, year ago i complain about this armor have no pant, and u said since this is mercenary armor and it suppose to look like that, you also said you will consider make one someday, so im still waiting since :steamsad:

Guess i have to use colored vanilla samurai leg plate then :cta_emo4:

@Quilava, I am not sure what you mean by base samurai model? But I currently dont have much time to model and implement things into kenshi as it is a time consuming process
Quilava 17 Jul, 2024 @ 7:43am 
It been a year already and still no samurai armor base on this model, i need really need some samurai armor base on this armor model to flex on tho scummy UC Samurai who keep planing drug in my bag to make me spit out money for em :sad_seagull:
