While you Imperials, and Stormcloaks fight over the southern lands of Skyrim, our navy will bring our armies through the Sea Of Ghosts. We will launch a three headed attack, taking Solitude, Winterhold, and Windhelm. Then we will unite the three armies and annihilate Whiterun.
Through the Sea of Ghosts? Well that is smart, if they're looking to lose majority of their fleet. The Sea of Ghosts is known for wiping fleets out. Sea wrecks are many in Skyrim's coast. Single ships using a shipping lane perhaps, but not a fleet. Emperor Uriel discovered this during his invasion of Akavir, the weather destroyed many of his East Imperial Navy.
You see Nords are impressive warriors, up close anyway. We Altmer will incinerate you at a distance. While our Bosmeri counterparts will pick yo off one by one, as thy are unquestionably the finest archers in Tamriel. And for those few and unlucky to survive this onslaught. They will have to face the Claws and speed of the Khajit.
Aldmeri troops will run out of supplies, and reinforcements with help being months away. They'd be constantly engaged and ambushed, by hit and run guerrilla tactics. Slow moving army through the province, no outsider army has ever been able to conquer Skyrim.
In one swoop we will take the Capitol, the provential capitol, and the center of Magick from Skyrim. What will that leave you. The Reach? The Imperials and Stormcloaks alike already have their hands full with the Forsworn. The Rift? an expanse of petty thieves.
The force needed to achieve this, you just abandoned Valenwood, Elsweyr and left an open route to Summerset Isle for the West Imperial Navy.
What does that leave you? Stuck in a frozen province, while the entire Imperial army simply marches unopposed and takes back the provinces.
All Hail The Aldmeri Dominion.
There won't be a Dominion after that one, sport.
If the High King is too weak to defend himself from a shout, how can one expect him to know how to defend the province properly if the Thalmor do come to Skyrim, and he needs to be out there to defend his people?
Many Kings couldn't defend themselves from a shout. Ysgramor wouldn't of been able to, does that mean Ysgramor was a weak King?
