You don't take 30 years to rebuild a rather token force and sit by as the enemy tortures and kills your people. If you're preparing for war, you don't freely allow spies to look at all your plans. The legion doesn't make decisions for the empire. There's nothing to suggest the empire has any ideas of restarting the war. He may not be a manchurian agent, but the end result is the same: Ulfric is a Thalmor tool, and the only way out he gets is the Dragonborn, through siding with him, or against him. You can see Elenwen pushing them should she stick around at the Season Unending talks. They know all his angry buttons from his time as a POW. But nope, The Thalmor said 'Jump', Ulfric said 'How high'. Well if Ulfric had patience and a modicum of astuteness, he would probably get a hint that the WGC only bought an interbellum. As I said: 'Jump!' 'How high?'Д«ethany Watkin Posts: 3445 Joined: Sun 4:13 pm Instead of getting mad at the Thalmor for foisting such unfair demands, they get mad at the Empire for having no choice but to accept. That's what the Stormcloak rebellion is: A Thalmor plot to disrupt the Empire's rearming. The Stormcloaks, goaded by the Thalmor, disrupt those plans. So the Empire should just roll over and let the Stormcloaks break the Empire's back? The Empire was re-arming because they knew it was only an interbellum. Both the empire and the Stormcloaks have decided that settling the dispute over who should lead Skyrim is more important than papering over with a false peace. The fact that the Thalmor hope to profit from the conflict doesn't matter. Who says he isn't? I don't know why people think the idea that your enemy wants you to be distracted and weakened by infighting is such a revolutionary concept that even a complete moron wouldn't grasp it.

Leave her free to plot her revenge? I think he underestimates her. He killed her husband, fair challenge or not. Personally, I'd be none too happy about that if I were living out my life in her basemant while she goes right on being Jarl of Solitude two floors up in the throneroom. No matter which way you play, not a single Jarl pays with his/her life for siding with the enemy, except Ulfric and that's because he's the leader of one faction, not someone who just took one side or the other.ДЄll the Jarls who supported her lost their thrones for doing so, and in the end she meekly agrees to swear fealty to the enemy to avoid the same fate. I mean, I don't for one minute think she was in danger of being killed, only of being deposed.

Please indicate how Ulfric is 'short-sighted.'ДЄ united Empire also makes spying and intelligence-gathering easier, especially since they've already been doing it for a quarter-century. con- Extra recources, means that the Empire can rearm its forces faster, much faster than the Thalmor can. con- an united empire is going to be hard to beat in the future, and there are no relation problems in this case.(which would be present if Stormcloaks win. pro- They still could regulate and stay around in Skyrim, spying and killing resistance to the Thalmor. con-As you said, the Thalmor wouldn't be able to walk around Skyrim and take Talos worshippers and keep an eye around. even an alliance with Hammerfell will be filled with tensions, a problem which would never be present in a united empire. pro-seeing how 'short sighted' Ulfric is, he will never make an alliance with the empire. pro-The empire will lose a big province with much resources, divide and conquer. Each side when they win have pros and cons to the Thalmor I believe.
