Well... You have to look fabulous when you're threatening the existence of the entire human race.
The Roman Empire? Perhaps, but they are the Roman Empire at its end. If need be, the Skyrim under the true High King shall be the Germanic tribes that destroy the Roman Empire.The imperials are badasses. Dunno what else to tell you but... THEY ARE LIKE THE FRICKIN ROMAN LEGIONS! The way they act, how they handle themselves..... Whereas the Nords are what? Dumb viking people? Yeaaaah.... No. '
Imperials>All. Even Lizard men, sorry Kabuto.
Dumb. Brutish. Viking. People.Dumb viking people
Dumb viking people
I'm fighting the urge to neg rep you....

The Empire is a crumbling husk of its former self, reduced to being a slave-nation
There are 9 provinces of Tamriel. In Oblivion, the Empire controls 9 provinces. By the time of the beginning of Skyrim, do you know many provinces are held by the Empire? 2 1/2 at most. If the Empire hasn't fallen already, which it has, it's time to fall now.
Would you want to live as a slave to High Elves? Or would you want to fight the Thalmor? The Empire is corrupt and lazy, the Stormcloaks not only fight for Skyrim, but for all of mankind.
Dumb. Brutish. Viking. People.
Who would want to be them?! "Hey, Oolaf! let's go'a ravage some English church's!"
"Dasayurgin! Sounds great Loki! let's go pillage a few defenseless villages too!"
Where as the Imperials have the class, elegence of the Romans......... Well, the order of it. It seems. I mean, would you rather play as the people who represent/are a reflection of those who conquered the Mediterranean? Or simply those who raided a shit ton and LOST to Native Americans when they tried to colonize North America.
Romans of course. Don't hate on the Imperials just 'cause they're better!

We've had this talk, Skyrim >.>... I've only played Skyrim and I got probably.. Not to ofar. I became a dragonborn, learned how to shout, went to Solitude, did a few quests... Then got lost and kept dying to a pack of wolves and treemen in a cave!''
I.Do.Not.Know.The.Lore!
But Rome>All. And the Imperials ARE Rome-ish.. Soooo. Yeah!
of course the empire will fall ..all must crumble U_U But i'll simply kill for the next rulers of tamriel, as long as they've got the money my allegiance is to myself, and perhaps the brotherhood, **** with me ..you die whether your stormcloak or imperial
BAH!
See HiddenSound's post above for my response.
The Stormcloaks are fighting for Tamriel itself, in the end!
The Aldmeri Dominion, aka the Thalmor, aka the High Elves beat "Rome" U_UDumb. Brutish. Viking. People.

No their not ..Stormcloaks = Fighting for skyrim's freedom
Imperials= Tamriel's freedom Not to mention Storm Cloaks are too brutish , i prefer the suave that comes with being a one hander ...As a mage i would think you would hate the nords who despise you?
@ HS- Indeed my man, they should set that up as an legitimate option in the next game...assuming their is some sort of war like conflict

At the end of the Stormcloak quest line, Ulfric explains that the true enemies of Skyrim are the Thalmor. Thalmor = enemies of mankind. Skyrim will lead man in its fight to conquer the invaders U_U
And how can the Imperials fight for Tamriel when they're under the thumb of the Elves? The Empire is paralyzed and stagnant.
:l...... **** Skyrim. **** Elder Scrolls. NO ONE beats the Romans but three hundred years of corruption, a few thousand barbarian tribes, a few generations of poor leaders and buying off mercenaries to fight for your empire instead. Oh, and religious feuds that cause the empire to split in two!
Plus, high elves are pussies.... God damn Kael is proof of that.... Watch no one get that and I feel like a nerd :l
Time to break my skyrim disc in half and get Oblivion. It'd be sooo cool if ya'd mail me your copy! >.>"Rome" did survive though, obviously. It's dying from its injuries though.
The most recent Empire, the current one, lasted for a good couple hundred years, 2 or 3 eras or so.
Thalmor and Stormcloaks = "Barbarian tribes"
The Imperial High Council is very, very corrupt.
The current leader, while not poor, is subpar compared to the old leaders.
And there is a huge religious feud in the Empire.
Oblivion takes place in the Empire's time, Skyrim takes place in the Empire's fall U_U
God, I love Fallout. My other favorite franchisemy knowledge of skyrim pails in comparison to most![]()
i should spend less time with fallout![]()
Yes i know .. i joined the storm cloaks once.. kind of weird how the final battle only contained like 7 SC's
They should of made it a fullscale battle XD..
Anyway's not really the empire had to obey or else Skyrim would of been obliterated U_U Not to mention The SC's discriminate any other Race except their own.. Which is the one thing i hate..seeing as i'm a minority myself (argonian)
**** you you racist pig, Death to the storm cloaksYou disgust me.
My brother!
Seems the Imperials would pay better, but I don't think you don't get paid either way.
Basically it boils down to which you prefer:
Kinda racist Nord guerrilla fighters who fight to free their homeland or puppets of the equivalent of the Nazis.
God, I love Fallout. My other favorite franchise
Yeah, the final battle either way lacked... Intensity.
Stormcloaks don't discriminate. Any race can join, and there High Elves and Dark Elves in the upper class district of Windhelm. The Argonians came into a Nord city expecting they would be given the fluffy treatment as if they were in the Imperial City. Nope. To get by in Nordville you have to work. A few newcomers saw this and they get along fine, the others didnt like it started complaining instead fixing the problem through their own work.
