??? The Road to Silgrad Tower
????? This video was shot on March 7th, showing the work-in-progress 'Road to Silgrad Tower' and featured in a forum thread on silgrad.com. Since shooting it, a region was generated to welcome the player to Morrowind, and the roadsign textures & models were updated for more clarity. To see the state of the road as it is in the mod, please refer to the screenshots.
