Check the Beth Forum thread linked in the description for any patches or compatibility notes—the mod page itself is thin.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community favorite with over 1,200 endorsements—clearly a hit among Oblivion players.
- Massive download count (40k+) shows it's been tried and tested by many.
- Adds a variety of weapon types (sabers, cleavers, swords) so you get options, not just one sword.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2008—over a decade old, so it may have compatibility issues with modern mod setups or the Steam version.
- Description is sparse, so you won't know exact stats or how to obtain the weapons without digging into forums.
- No mention of compatibility with popular overhaul mods like Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul or Francesco's—you'll need to test yourself.
