Well, the Nords won't use magic because they believe it to be cowardly. So the Nords have a huge disadvantage at sea. When you say they should go south, what are you trying to say? You can only reach the Summerset Isles by ship, so they will have to use a navy. Ok, now about Morrowind. The reason they won't help the Stormcloaks is because they treat the Dunmer like shit. Don't even try to talk about the two Dunmer who don't live in the Grey Quarter. The vast majority are mistreated for no reason. Hammerfell may join the Stormcloaks but then a problem will arise. Who would lead the combined redguard/nord force? Ulfric will not let a redguard command Nords, and vice versa with the redguard leader. However, an alliance led by the Empire would work since both Skyrim and Hammerfell and High Rock have been controlled by Imperials before. The dominion invading Skyrim would be tough, but they would destroy the Stormcloaks in the end. They will have a larger, better equipped, and better trained army. The Stormcloaks only are good at guerrilla warfare. Cyrodill is essential to beating the Dominion. They could supply the Alliance with food, since Cyrodil is the breadbasket of Tamriel. Ulfric needs to die for an alliance to work.
