User blog comment:JoshofBlades/Why the Empire Should Prevail Over the Stormcloaks! (part 2)/@comment-98.254.157.66-20111127074220/@comment-75.104.114.122-20120601202827

Realistically, evertime I've seen stormcloaks run into thalmor, the thalmor slaughter them like it's nobodies business. Maybe it's a random event or something, but occasionally when I get close to a thalmor diplomatic building or one of their justicars they are ambushed by stormcloaks, and they never succumb.
