Yes, yes, it is a well-tread path I walk in saying I'm going to reassign and retexture the armors appearing in The Sith Lords. However, no mods of similar design quite go all the way. Enter me. My guiding principle: All descriptions, lore, and textures should carry equal weight. The textures of TSL's armor uti files will be corrected where needed to point toward their K1 appearance. Some of this was just sloppiness on Obsidian's part, some of it was just interesting reassignment choices. For new armors, I intend to do the following: The Light Combat Suit will now take its cues from the Peragus Mining Uniform (so it will basically be just a brown leather suit). The Mandalorian Combat Suit will take its cues from the Cinnegar Weave Armor of K1, to better match description. The Mandalorian Heavy Suit might get Bandon's Fiber Armor recolored, again to better match the item description (although kudos to Obsidian for putting in the bare minimum effort of making the combat suit texture indigo). The Echani Shield Suit I'm considering a recolored version of K1's Baragwin Shadow Armor. Not ideal, but better than the obviously Mandalorian armor from before. The Sith Battle Suit will now resemble a red version of K1's Environmental bastion armor. The Verpine Fiber Ultramesh gets recolored slightly--more gold added to the shoulders and tubes. We don't know where Davik got his armor, but we do know a Verpine color scheme when we see one. The Corellian Powersuit takes its cues from the Powered Battle Suit to better match the item description. M'uhk'gfa is my own attempt using the Battle Armor base with a modified weave over the leather parts to better match the item description. The Iotran Braceman Armor takes its cues from the class eight Mandalorian armor now (what was previously the Echani Shield Suit), better matching the item description which categorizes them as a warrior society. The Fenelar Armor now bares its correct name, and has been recolored to distance it from Jurgan Kalta's Power Suit, although the implication of the identified Fenelar design on the origins of Kalta's armor is up to you. The Matrix Armor is untouched (because I refuse to call it Cassus Fett's armor) but has a modified description which implies a link between either starship plating and beskar or the armor's design and those of the Mandalorians depending on how you take it. They are in various stages of completion, but I'll post images as I get to them. As always, feedback is welcome!

We are actually on the same page with regards to the Verpine tiers, and I like your idea about the Mandalorian tiers. Less work for me at least. Some corrections: it was the Echani heavy armor that was Mandalorian, my mistake. Here's my attempt at the correction: Echani heavy armor, Iotran Bracemen armor Here's a rough version of the Echani Shield Suit. I haven't got the color quite right (aiming for a gold that matches the Echani battle armor). Also I figured Jurgan Kalta's suit and the Fenelar armor was intentional, but there are enough "dark yet plausibly colorful" armors in the game as is. The Light Combat Suit (again, minimalist because it is legit just "better than clothing."
