⚠️ Common Mistakes

Installing without checking requirements

👍 Pros

Huge community trust: 12,399 endorsements and 2.9M downloads show this mod is a staple for many playthroughs.
Fills a real gap: after wiping out the Brotherhood, you get a proper follow-up instead of a dead end.
Still maintained: last updated November 2023, so it's likely compatible with current Skyrim versions.

👎 Cons

Requires you to destroy the Dark Brotherhood first—if you're a stealth assassin, this mod isn't for you.
No detailed feature list in the description, so you'll have to discover the quest details in-game.
Only adds one questline—if you're looking for a full faction overhaul, this might feel limited.
