User blog comment:Longdead97/Ulfric's war effort & gaining support. Smart move or no?/@comment-1600847-20130327230238/@comment-1600847-20130328135114

1) Well I never heard a Nord complain of the liberation of Markarth, only Reachmen. They view it as a good thing.

2) I don't care what anyone says, Ulfric murdered Torygg. Torygg knew he couldn't win, Ulfric just shouted him apart. As he said:

"I faced him fearlessly - my fate inescapable, yet my honor is unstained - can Ulfric say the same?"

It wasn't honorable combat at all. Ulfric knew Torygg couldn't win and that's why he fought him. Had it been honorable, Ulfric would have just fought him with his axe. But no, he used an ancient power he knew Torygg couldn't hope to withstand. If you kill an unarmed man, it's not honorable. What Ulfric did was the same.

3) "Ulfric's psychology doesn't correlate"? I think you're making broad assumptions there. You don't know anything about Ulfric aside from a few lines of dialogue with him. He could be, I don't know, lying? Acting? Pretending? There's no way to know for sure. He wouldn't be the first power-seeker to lie and manipulate for his own ends.
