User blog comment:Jimeee/Skryim DLC Details Leaked in 1.5.26 Update Files - The Snow Prince!?/@comment-4977109-20120428135828/@comment-5060344-20120428173853

Also note that one of the loading screens featuring the Falmer states their hatred for the surface world and all who dwell their. I suppose given the fact that the Dwemer pretty much destroyed their culture, identity and even biology (given the whole blindness thing), and the fact that the early humans smashed their armies, which would be pretty humiliating for a nation that Enthir states rivaled the Altmer's.

So I suppose that I'm trying to say that I find your theory very plausible and that this info leak is far more likely to be real than the whole Riders of Hammerfell thing.

Anyway, kind of meh to crossbows, given that a crossbow is effectivley a more powerfull bow, that requires less skill to learn and fires slower than a normal bow, which given how slow the daedric bow fires... I can't get too excited about that.

What I would like are the long promised spears because the tactical opportunities of either a throwing spear or a pike would be interesting (and if they put something like a naginata then I will be very happy).

But yeah, DLC. It ought to be cool given the talent of the studio that made things like Shivering Isles and Point Lookout. Just no more horse armour. Seriously. Never again.
