'''"lying? Acting? Pretending?" '''

I really don't think so during Season Unending in the main quest he could have shown his cunning and intelligence in negotiating with the Empire but yeah I got to admit he was really bull headed all he wanted was Markarth regardless to the fact that area is teaming with Forsworn and he couldn't even keep his cool when Elenwen was around in the treaty and he complains if he loses Riften or well anything for that mater during the treaty and if he was so clever how was he captured twice one by the Thalmor when he was arrested and two on his way back to Windhelm it really doesn't show a lot of cunning on his part and how does he acts exactly like this for the course of the whole game hey if you thing hes plotting something sure but have something to back it up other than circumstantial evidence based on well on how you view the out come of the civil war for the Stormcloaks is. he does know one thing its how to fight in a war and is a lot better than Titus Mede II. You didn't base you opinion on Laila Law-Giver and Saerlund Law-Giver did you?

Ulfric murdered Torygg.

yeah no he didn't if I asked some one in the street to fight me and he agrees with witnesses he cant charge me with assault because he agreed to it and if I just happen to know Martial arts as well yeah still cant and that is the equivalency to what the Thu'um to the Nords is a form of Martial art it isn't really like magic why because you need to spend years on the top of a mountain harnessing your voice just to finish three words and all this does is knock your foe down unlike magic spend that long studying and well you would be a adept in three schools and even then Torygg could have denied yes he was not forced he was not assaulted he didn't assassinate him in the dead of night it was just some guy came in and challenged him to a duel he lost. ''' "I faced him fearlessly - my fate inescapable, yet my honor is unstained - can Ulfric say the same?" ''' The rules of the duel never really sated he couldn't use his Thu'um in this duel hey if you have a tool use it he was also armed with a sword when you meet him is Sovngarde meaning he died with a weapon in hand so no he was not unarmed and he could have prevented it and said no and just ignore him I mean really what can Ulfric do then he is in a room full of guards in the middle of the palace where he announced that he challenged the high king to a duel he can use his Thu'um to escape but that only works on those in front of you and if he knew that he would be killed then why did he go through with it because of his honor? I'm sorry but that was just stupidity on his part so yeah that's kind of a blow to his honor there at least he was fearless.
