Talk:Skyrim Civil War

Glaring Errors
Some fairly big errors in this article. The imperials have their base of operations in Castle Dour, hardly a "small building". Castle Dour is (obviously) in Solitude, the hold of Solitude is the Blue Palace, which makes it impossible for the Stormcloaks to be using that as their base of operations.

Lastly this brings up the use of the word "there" in this sentence from the Stormcloak entry

"There base of operations is inside the Blue Palace ."

The correct word is "their". There is a general lack of good grammar use in this entire article overall.

The imperials don't want to destroy the Stormcloaks, they wish to crush the Stormcloak resistance and bring the entirety of Skyrim under Imperial rule.

The Stormcloaks have a more complicated motivation. Skyrim was a part of the empire. The signing of the White Gold Concordat that ended the war with the elves also forbade the worship of Talos. The Stormcloaks feel that this is cowardice, considering Talos (as Tiber Septim) was actually a Nord, to them this outlawing is an outrage and spits on the legend of the man-god. So the Stormcloaks want to remove the Imperials and make Skyrim an independant state so they can allow the worship of Talos. From what I have read on lore Skyrim was never really strongly aligned with the empire anyway.

Only write this here because I am not so good at writing succinctly, plus I may have some lore points wrong.
