Ok so ive played through the civil war on the imperials side and this just happened like 5 minutes ago, but so im doing this deadric quest and im walking along the road with this talking dog and i come across 4 imperial soldiers escorting a stormcloak prisoner, but the cool thing was that we were traveling the same direction and 3 stormcloak soldiers tried to ambush the imperials, i just couldnt help but watch, i thought it was pretty neat.

2 days ago I saw some bandits assault a Stormcloak guard post. The Stormcloaks made pretty short work of them.

Well this one time I saw two hunters go after a deer. Before they could kill it I drew my bow and one shotted the deer. Well, I went to go loot its hide and meat but the hunter got to the deer first and yelled at me saying, "Back off! This is ours!" Or something like that. I stood there like did you not just see me kill it? Then he attacked me! The nerve of them hunters in the game.

I had something like that, except it was Thalmore escorting the prisoner, and I was right outside Solitude with Ulfric. That..was really, really fun to watch him tear into stick-up-the [Numnit] Elves.

Like maybe the 5th dragon I killed, I initially spotted it cruising around while I was walking down a road. I chased it, and it turned around and headed back up that road. So I turned around and chased again... and then turned and chased again...
This went on with me running back and forth trying to actually hurt the thing enough to get its attention. Along the way I got in several fights (bears, wolves, a wandering conjurer). Eventually I saw a bunch of arrows going up into the sky , and the dragon landed in the road. There was an Imperial patrol off to the side of the road, in ambush position, and they had done enough damage to get the dragon to land! I promptly 2 handed it to death, and they stood in awe of my soul absorbing powaz.

Made me proud to be fight on the side of the imperials - our soldiers actually ARE doing something about the dragons!

I saw a couple of Companions out in the wilds near the Atronach Stone fighting a Mammoth, and that fuzzy elephant pwned them all down to a man while I watched from a safe distance. Aela was saying "No more... no more..." while the pissed-off beast was jamming its tusks in her ass. :)

I got to the Thieves Guild quest were you can either kill a guard or pay off his debt. I opted to pay off his debt, but when I went ot speak with him he attacked me. Not wanting to kill him I walked into Riften's main square. None of the City Guard would do anything, but then Madesi the Jewelsmith one shot him with a dagger to the back. I laughed for a good long while.

You thought it was a mammoth, but that was just an adjective.

I saw some Imperials attack a Forsworn camp near the empty dwemer tower in the Reach.

I came upon a group of Orcs fighting a giant the other night. The giant took out two of the orcs no sweat and only because I helped out did the 3rd orc survive. He had no dialogue.

One of the orcs was named while the other two were just generically labeled "Orc." (The named one was one who died....hopefully he isn't important for any reason.)

Thalmor agents vs. stormcloacks. Wonderful.

The thalmor ended like 7 soldiers in 5 seconds. And there were only 3 thalmor.

Best of this: I destroyed everything.

That would explain that exaggerated walk of hers.

For me it would have to be a 4 sided battle. I was going to hunt a giant when a pack of wolves started attacking his mammoth on top of a dragon just showing up and set everyone on fire. There were guards on patrol and decided to fight the dragon hitting the giant a couple times to. One of the guards ran right into my fireball so it was all hell but very fun battle.

The only thing that svcks there is that you probably got a bounty, right?

I was trying to defend Winterhold from a damn dragon and accidentally shot a guard who moved into my way. 40 gold bounty. As the dragon lay defeated, the guards come running up to arrest me.

Next time, I'm not going to help.

I played Hide and Seek with Braith in Whiterun. She'd hide then when i find her, the quest would complete but then a new quest would start where i would be the one to hide, as i would run, Braith would see me and the quest would complete then another quest started for me to look for here. it just kept going on and on, alternating everytime and all the while i was thinking: "oh [censored], i hope this isnt an infinite loop of a bug/glitch" heheheh

Actually, you need to save the named Orc to get started on a Daedric quest.

I had the same thing happen, except there weren't any Stormcloak soldiers to help. I killed them and let the prisoner go. Not because I'd sided with the Stormcloaks, but because my character doesn't approve of anyone being a prisoner.

But apparently unprovoked assault and murder is morally acceptable.



I've run into the escort missions twice now. The first time, I gave the guy a good sword and shield to help him escape. Then we killed the guards together. But then the bastard tried to run away with all my good gear! I had to hunt him down and in order to get it back I had to kill him. That was really irritating.

The second time I ran into the escort I helped the prisoner, but didn't give him any gear. I followed him for a while but then got bored. I wonder where they go.


I went to the gold mine you have to liberate from the Forsworn recently. When I arrived there was entire group of Forsworn leaders, the two NPCs that live there, a guard for that region, my spectral assassin, my follower, myself, two wild animals, and then a dragon showed up. It was a pretty messy battle. When all was said and done there was a dead dragon, a dead guard, about 7 or 8 dead Forsworn leaders, two dead NPCs, my spectral assassin got eaten by the dragon, and everyone but my follower and I were dead.

There had to be at least 20 people, comprising 6 different sides in this battle. It was pretty bloody. Kind of cool, aside from the dead NPCs and the Forsworn being back in the mine where they weren't supposed to be.
