    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Getting bored trying to resolve all of Skyrim's ills. Perhaps I shall check out this "Age of Dragons" game you keep going on about. Which one though? Isn't there like 3 of 'em now? UPDATE: MUHAHAHAHA I'll be the "Inquisitor" My God Jim, the graphics are excellently excellent.

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Only because of the Nords action's towards them. The problem with the later day Snowelves is they became dependent on the Dwemer, the Dwemer started making all the decisions for them, so, the Dwemer did whatever they wanted with them because the Snowelves traded they independence for security...

    One of the problems people frequently experience with my persona is I never apologize and I never take it back. Unless this is Civ 5, then it's perfectly alright ;) So let's see... I can tell you're no fan of the Dwemer. Hehehe Like all Elven races, the Dwemer leave much to be admired. It...

    Thanks for you reply. Windhelm was built by Elven slaves. There is also a book out there somewhere which talks about the Elves trying to surrender and being either ignored or killed anyways out of Nord pride. Above and beyond all else, the Nords never pressed for peace or relented, even when...

    Thousands of people *DIED* just so the WGC could be signed in the first place. The Emperor was forced to allow the Thalmor to openly administer the ban on Talos because of the rebellion. Thalmor will even tell you this is so. The only sane conclusion for this is because the Empire wasn't...

    Thalmor don't hate everyone. That's opp of the truth actually. We've all already agreed the Thalmor are good with politics right? So, how do you expect to get ahead by hating the world? Thalmor also ~ eat their own sometimes. For example, Elenwen replaced the former ambassador to Skyrim...

    True. The good Jarl has a pretty bad habit of breaking protocol. However, I wouldn't call him "traitorous" as he hasn't sided w/ Ulfric. The Jarl actually seems pretty loyal to the Empire once you speak with him. In fact, he had to swear fealty to both Empire and WGC before the Empire took...

    In the meantime, WGC will be enforced, heathens / terrorists hunted down and exterminated with extreme prejudice... lot of torturing to do... "woo-ooo-ooo" "tck tck" *points to Raijin w/ both hands*

    Civilization requires conformity. Conformity is the first rule to creating a society, Taxes are the first rule of maintaining said society. Taxes created economics and everyone in or outside the society must trade... eventually. And thus, conformity provides independence at a price...

    Of course. Oblivion was the same... "The Future". However, there are future elements which can be inferred. TES VI will be boring as hell without the Thalmor... and you all know it. Behold the Future! Behold the Thalmor!!! HAHAHAHAHA

    Otherwise known as "The Gauntlet" or "MadMage beyond WinterDome".

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Question for you. Why, is it so bad to hear the Imperials side of the Markarth Incident? I mean, the Empire didn't make the deal with Ulfric they were left with the bill once the new Jarl decided he'd rather turn the city over to the Empire as opposed to facing the Thalmor. So, we hear the...

    Actually, I recognize those Thalmor with him, they're the fashion police. This Nord's outfit is so bad, he's being placed under arrest to prevent harm to himself or anyone else. They were simply bringing him back to Solitude to get some new threads.

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Admittedly, the Imperials have very poor representation in Skyrim. Oblivion was a very different story, however, as everything was "pain-stakingly" fitted to Lore with ruby-red glass slippers and a stage coach made from a magic pumpkin. The difference in Skyrim is there is no magic. The...

    The Thalmor are an old association within the Summerset Gov. They were 'what was left' of the original Dominion Gov after Tiber Septim was thru with Summerset, they became the minority voice of reason. Thru the years of being ignored, spat on and cold-shouldered by the Crystal Tower and puppet...

    The Altmer merchant immigrated to Skyrim, which is a process all it's own. It would be *extremely* difficult for the Thalmor to invade Skyrim, also bad tactics. Some reasons for this include pirates, disgruntled Redguards and sea hazards such as floating chunks of ice... not to mention the...

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Correct. The Aldmeri Dominion is both rich and powerful. The Altmer are natural mages, however not all Altmer are mages. An Elven army of mages or one of which where ALL Altmer field units are trained in at least basic Conjuration can effectively double it's strength thru Conjuration. Altmer...

    ill answer #10: "10. You would be safe for a while. But with Skyrim split from the Empire, Imperial forces would be hindered and halted. Resulting in an easier invasion of Cyrodiil and soon after Skyrim." IF the Empire were to fall, or Skyrim was to secede, good news is you have options! :)...
