The Dominion is trying to Invade Skyrim. If it takes it they will be unmovable from there pretty much securing it forever and suround Cyrodiil.

If they didn't try to prepare an Invasion they wouldn't waste resources to keep the Civil War running as proved and explained in the Thalmor Dossier. They want to weaken the land the Soldiers the Spirit of unity and they also have scouted all of Skyrim.

They will start the 2nd Great War nontheless and they will attack High Rock and Skyrim since the Imperial Legion isn't capable to cross the Ocean into the Summerset Isles so they dont have to worry about a Front with Cyrodiil.

They will take High Rock (At least the Coastal Cities No way they can take the mountains of Orsinium or the Reach) since the Legion cannot afford spending Manpower there because that will weaken their defensive position at their Homeland.

As for Skyrim. If its still strong and becomes stronger it can destroy any Invaders in this Mountainous Highland even destroying superior Aldmeri Ships in the treacherous Ice Fields of the Sea of Ghosts in which only fast ramming and boarding Longboats can propably move manuever and reach battle speeds.

But will the Stormcloak be capable of an Invasion of the Summerset Isles? Well perhaps they will be capable for swift terrorizing raids against settlements or key structures all over the coasts which are ruled by the Dominion if of course they can pass or avoid the Aldmeri Navy but that wouldn't lead to victory. Its a waste of time.

No way would they be capable of invading Alinor. Not even the Imperial Legion would suffice for that.

But the real question is not if the Stormcloaks or the Imperials would win against the Dominion or if an Imperial or a Stormcloak Skyrim would be better but if: The Nords Unite become independent with the Empire as their military Ally with Jarl Balgruf the Greater seating on the throne and the Dragonborn ellected Grand General of Skyrim to counter the Aldmeri threat leading to the Dragonborns destiny to become stronger influence Tamriel and bring balance all across it by having actually a chance to save Men from the vile Mer the Thalmor.
