I sided with the Stormclocks (I'm not racist, my best friend is a Dark Elf) and had a major role - if I do say so myself - in kicking the Empire's sorry azz.

I have subsequently come across a few Imperial camps out in the sticks and, one way or another, killed everyone in the camp. Everyone except for the indestructible Legates.

Now, when I happen upon a decimated camp, the Legate is either studying the strategy map or sleeping in his tent or, in one case, patroling. At this point, don't you think they should be killable? I mean, let's face it: it is time to abandon post. Wars over, man. These whack jobs are still carrying on, looking for a weak spot in the Stormcloak defenses and the rest of the world has moved on.

These guys need help, or the sweet release of a battleax to the face.

Yeah it's LOL. I sided with the Imps and after completing it I am told that there are SC-camps about and that they expect me to kill them all, the problem is that the leaders are essentials so I cant kill them. Why are they essential after the questline is finished?

Yeah, I should be able to whoop those sorry Stormcloaks back to Atmora myself.

Imho I thought that the ending to the civil war quest line left much to be desired and could have been so much more than just, "oh that's it, now go mop up"

Cute Khajiit girl offer to smith all their gear to legendary+++ and enchant it if they can link me with an good looking Khajiit male.
Would make rest of the campaign boring as armor capped tend to do.
