SKYRIM SE CIVIL WAR MODS SERIES

On top of this, the opposing side would actively participate in the war, which would have forced players to play defensive as well as offensive missions.

In addition, sieges like those seen during Battle For Whiterun and the final two battles were intended to occur with each hold capture. Taking a hold would have involved capturing the outlying villages and/or points of interest as well as completing the regular missions.

Leftover dialogue, markers, quest updates, and other evidence suggests that at one time the game's developers intended the Civil War to be much more dynamic and complex than it currently is.

This questline is put on hold during the ceasefire negotiated in Season Unending Civil War quests are unavailable until after the Main Questline is completed.

At the end of this quest, you have a final opportunity to keep or change sides in the Civil War. If you join the Imperials, the second quest that you receive in the Imperial questline will be The Jagged Crown (Imperial), and if you join the Stormcloaks, the second quest that you receive in that questline will be The Jagged Crown (Stormcloak). For example, if you are a Stormcloak you are no longer welcome in Imperial Camps, and after a warning, will be attacked by Imperial soldiers if you do not leave immediately. Another implication of joining a side is that the other side now considers you an enemy. Although you are not required to wear the armor, wearing the opponent's armor can result in your being accused of being a spy ironically, this dialogue stops once you have joined one side or the other. Even after you are formally inducted, you will have yet one later chance to change sides. Both sides have an initiation task that you must first complete before you are inducted into the faction. If you have not initiated a quest to join either side, you can simply travel to either base and trigger the quest by speaking to members of the leadership. To join an army, you need to go to that army's base to join (in Windhelm for the Stormcloaks, or in Solitude for the Imperial Legion).

While exploring Skyrim, you will fairly often meet soldiers from both sides, who will ask you to join their side if you have made no choice, or if you belong to the opposite side. If you do make a choice, you can later change sides. You can make a choice to accept the suggestion or you can postpone it.

However, this choice only determines which side you will be first asked to join.ДЄfter escaping the Helgen keep, your chosen companion will suggest that you join their side, adding the corresponding quest to your log. You are first asked to choose sides shortly after you escape your near-execution and the subsequent dragon attack during the Unbound quest, at the point when you choose whether to enter Helgen Keep with Ralof, a Stormcloak, or with Hadvar, an Imperial soldier. The overall quest arcs for the Imperial Legion and Stormcloaks are similar, and allow you to unlock the same achievements.

Either choice allows you to start a series of quests, during which various battles of the Civil War are fought, ultimately resulting in your chosen side taking control of Skyrim. You will be asked to take sides in the Civil War being fought between the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloaks (a historical description of which may be found here).
