It'll be like the Spanish Armada. The difference? The Spanish ships were not properly equipped to fight in the English Channel. The Spanish large war ships could not surround the quicker lighter English ships which had the advantage in their own waters.

Stormcloaks doesn't even have warships, while the Thalmor already have access to Skyrim. Were the Thalmor to invade Skyrim, they certainly would be at an advantage due to WGC. They know the ins and outs of every city; from the stones of Markarth to Riften sewers, and the Empire would forced to bend the knee right away and give Skyrim on a silver platter if the rebels won the civil war.
