IMO the Nords in Skyrim could have had a mix of Celtic and Germanic arms, armor and material culture. Its pretty clear that Bethesda had them flip flop between the two depending on which entry in the series you are playing. The more Hunnic or oriental influence doesn't gel well at all unless you want to go with something like an earlier steppe people closer to Europe (The Scythians and such), but I have no idea how that would work at all with the lore and IMO it would feel somewhat derivative of the Ashlanders from MW.
>Plate armors make a lot of sense in the TES setting, they are used by Imperials and Bretons, and Nords themselves for hundreds of years up to Skyrim.
I meant more so mods that just copy and paste medieval armor straight into skyrim and people wonder why it feels off. Things like kettle helmets and such.
