Legion all the way. The Stormcloaks' arguments all really boiled down to "FREEEEEDDDOOOOOOOM!", but didn't really strike me as smart. I felt as though we should be unifiying against the Thalmor, the common enemy of both sides. Skyrim cannot beat the Thalmor on their own, and without the Empire, they'll surely be conquered. In addition, the entire rebellion seems more centred around Ulfric himself. It feels like most Stormcloaks are fighting to get him on the throne, and not for independence. The Legionaires on the other hand, don't fight for the cause of a person; they fight for they unity of the Empire and the protection of its citizens. That came across as way more noble than the Stormcloaks, many of whom want to drive out non-Nords. Also, the Roman armour was pretty sweet.

Long live the Legion!
