User blog comment:Longdead97/Ulfric's war effort & gaining support. Smart move or no?/@comment-5558140-20130324032553/@comment-67.189.165.3-20130327212130

you really think that the people who support ulfric and his war effort would not convene to make him the high king? thats ridiculous. why else would they support him, they support his cause which is to make skyrim independent, to do that they need ellisif off the throne and tullius gone. so when they convene the moot after all is said and done, who do you really think that all the other stormcloak supporting jarls (assuming the story has gone that way) will make high king?

because it wont be louis letrush.

also his goal was not to "eliminate the competition" it was simply to establish a new order, hence his rebellion. killing every jarl sided with the empire would send the wrong message to his followers. and i am GUARUNTEEING you that any race joing is SOLEY for the sake of the game, so all the 12 year olds who want to play the argonian stormcloak dragonborn don't get butt hurt. the writers may have found a little way to fit that in with ulfrics dialogue but ultimatley only nords are stormcloaks.

i do believe Ulfric wanted to be king, but it was definetley a combination of events that led to him wanting to seize power, and i really did beleive that Ulfric beleived he was fighting a noble cause. vladimir culich did a good job convincing me.
