Alternate Civil War Ending Needed. The right choice was neve

@Lyn1964: Oh dear we're not going to go with the "Ulfric is collaborating with the Thalmor" nonsense again, are we? If so you might want to read that dossier a little more carefully before you slap it down on the bargaining table.
Actually, the "heavenly discussion" had nothing to due with Ulfric being a collaborator, nor do I say or think that he is one. For those who know what I'm referring to, the discussion confirms the true character and motivations of Ulfric, which is questioned by NPC's throughout the game if you are paying attention to their background conversations.

@manic millipede: You are right, the options that you are given force you to make a choice and pick a side knowing that whichever you choose, it's wrong. It does give you a more real life feel, as seldom in real life do you have access to an overarching view that allows you to see the big picture. It's just frustrating to know what's coming, to know how to stop it, and yet not be able to. What I had wanted to achieve with my ending (or one like it) was see Tamriel make the transition that humanity made away from colonial powers to independant nation states. However, from the way Bethesda has set up this game, and with other clues from other faction storylines that I haven't menioned (to avoid spoilers), it seems that the established Elder Scrolls lore will be that the Empire falls shortly after the events of Skyrim, and the next game will center on a Tamriel ruled by the Aldmeri Dominion.

You mean it confirms your opinion of Ulfric's true character and motivations, which are questioned by some NPCs and revered by others if you are paying attention and talking to enough of them.

Interesting, you made a thread after all. I've already responded to you before, soooo...

A unification choice would be nice. Although im really quite doubtful that the stormcloaks would just say "ok lets put aside out differences and work together"; the stormcloaks are quite devoted to their beliefs. *cue galmar stone fist*

Go ahead and quote it. This is the spoiler section after all.

Read it and thought it interesting. Just one thing id like to point out is that a thane is much lower than a jarl. More like a thane is a noble and a jarl is a governor.

But I believe theres no true good ending to the civil war just yet BC I dont feel its finished yet. No matter which side u do, the moot has yet been called.
