Is she your waifu

Hot waifu

[QUOTE=Vehk;47804876]Is she your waifu[/QUOTE] I dare to say she isn't or she'll burn me into a crisp. [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/717541825162304842/7F890DA349A4E1C49AB0DE2137092B89F5809532/[/t]

She's a strong independent Breton woman who don't need no guicool?

[QUOTE=Vehk;47804917]She's a strong independent Breton woman who don't need no guicool?[/QUOTE] Yeah... :( Anyway, forgot to say, I made so she scales with you and at some level she gets perks and some Fire spells, in case you need her to be a mage. But she also accepts light or heavy armor, bows, one handed or two handed weapons. She also heals you in combat when you get hurt. Really. [editline]26th May 2015[/editline] Someone on the Nexus donated me 5 bucks because of her! Holy shit!

Wifin' is expensive

[QUOTE=guicool-BR-;47804741]So guys, as a shameless plug, I made a follower and released her on both the Nexus and the Workshop, please check her out :) [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/717541825162297407/5044C59D073F1A35BAB1491329C8CA1680C7557B/[/t] [URL="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=448649739"]Workshop link[/URL] [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/66201"]Nexus link[/URL] [sp]Bikini not included[/sp] Edit: I made so she scales with you and at some level she gets perks and some Fire spells, in case you need her to be a mage.

I dunno what to feel about choosing sides in this war. I went for Imperial tho

[QUOTE=Spectre1406;47805077]I dunno what to feel about choosing sides in this war. I went for Imperial tho[/QUOTE] both of them are kinda flaky. Imperials have far fewer red flags, though.

If you side with the Stormcloaks, the Empire ends up weakened and [URL="http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Thalmor_Dossier:_Ulfric_Stormcloak"]gives the Thalmor more or less exactly like they wanted[/URL], just as [sp]Tullius says just before he's killed[/sp]. Ulfric starting the Civil War altogether has pretty much helped the Dominion indirectly, by, again, weakening the Empire. [quote=Ulfric Dossier]As long as the civil war proceeds in its current indecisive fashion, we should remain hands-off. The incident at Helgen is an example where an exception had to be made - obviously Ulfric's death would have dramatically increased the chance of an Imperial victory and thus harmed our overall position in Skyrim.[/quote] [editline]asdf[/editline] I think a few hints are dropped that things are becoming tense between the Empire and the Thalmor yet again, possibly leading into a second wave of the Great War in the nearish future. Is Ulfric's exclusive buddy-club of ragtag racist Nords with shitty equipment going to be able to defend Skyrim if the [i]Legion[/i] lost the battle for their own capitol city, the Blades got massacred, and Cloud Ruler got destroyed? Fuck no, Skyrim would be utterly buttrekt. [editline]adsf[/editline] Btw, if you finished the Dark Brotherhood questline, the Empire once again has no leader. Stack that on top of a Stormcloak victory, if you did that, and you've pretty much doomed us all. Thanks. :v:

[quote] emma [/quote] Completely serious question Why do so many people use SGR? She literally looks like she has skin cancer, and no ENB can cover that up level of pixelation and bad tonal gradation/mismatching.

[QUOTE=27X;47805177]Completely serious question Why do so many people use SGR? She literally looks like she has skin cancer, and no ENB can cover that up level of pixelation and baded tonal gradation/mismatching.[/QUOTE] Now you got me curious, what do you use as replacement?

[QUOTE=Vehk;47805133]stormcloaks rant[/QUOTE] And another thing; let's assume the Thalmor focus solely on Imperial forces during the next war, and the Empire is finally destroyed cause they lost one of their few remaining allied provinces and the Emperor was assassinated. The Thalmor and their allies (namely Elsweyr) would probably go for the resistance pockets in Hammerfell, Skyrim, and (I think? I don't know much about) Orsinium. You could probably count how long they would last on your fingers. That would pretty much leave Morrowind and the hard-to-invade Argonians, two very decent fighting forces that are still truced enemies with relatively small populations. If they fail to defeat the Thalmor, then goodbye Free Tamriel, hello Mundus-destroying Nazi Dominion.

Thanks. :v:[/QUOTE] I agree with you, but one thing that's never mentioned in conversations (despite being in several books about the Great War) was that the Empire was actually able to mount an effective guerrilla war against the Dominion for a couple of years after they got rekt-- and eventually destroy nearly the entire Dominion army, albeit at the expense of their own. Basically, both the Empire and Dominion are gutted, and using diplomatic means to look stronger than they are. Any substantial third party (Black Marsh, Akavir, maybe Pyandonea) could probably wreck both of them, which I'm betting will be the general conceit of the next game.

Maybe the Akaviri would help Tamriel if the Nerevarine is still alive, and has been using his supernatural powers of persuasion to make loads of friends out thataways, but the Dunmer and the Argonians probably wouldn't be able to rely on them for help.

Link please? I'm going mostly from the ingame books and stuff, makes it look like they just decided to fuck off around the end of the Second Empire and never come back.

There must be a mod to change the animations or something.

[QUOTE=Spectre1406;47805454]There must be a mod to change the animations or something.[/QUOTE] For which game*?

Something like weapon wielding or combat

testing a weapon I call the "All Hammer" which does things based on your skills accidently set the knockback too far and ended up killing arexon rip [t]http://i.imgur.com/EoRxpPy.jpg[/t]

I still think Stormcloaks are the morally supreme faction and I'm a bit of a soft ass in that aspect, so I always end up joining them. They may be kind of racist, but they've a right to it since it's their land and all that stuff. Really'd rather there was a sort of hidden third faction that consisted of not killing eachother and just fending off the shitty elves, but that'd be too much.

Neither side in the conflict had the moral high ground. That's something Bethesda actually wrote right for once. The Stormcloaks are throwing a misguided hissy fit and the Imperials aren't bothering to try and find some sort of compromise (though the Thalmor probably wouldn't even let them). The whole Civil War is totally stupid and isn't helping anything, but that's intentional.

[QUOTE=MrHeadHopper;47805572]Really'd rather there was a sort of hidden third faction that consisted of not killing eachother and just fending off the shitty elves, but that'd be too much.[/QUOTE] yes, they're called the imperials.

Instead of picking a side in the civil war, can I just compromise and kill every thalmor I see?

[QUOTE=Ardosos;47805810]Instead of picking a side in the civil war, can I just compromise and kill every thalmor I see?[/QUOTE] that's usually what i do. fucking elves a shit

[QUOTE=Ardosos;47805810]Instead of picking a side in the civil war, can I just compromise and kill every thalmor I see?[/QUOTE] The Dragonborn singlehandedly kicking the Thalmor out of Skyrim would be amazing, but sadly... [editline]asdf[/editline] I'd love to have an equivalent of New Vegas' Independent ending for the Civil War, or just a "kill all fucking yellow elf Nazis seriously gtfo" option. We need a good mod for it.

[QUOTE=Vehk;47805457]For which game*?[/QUOTE] For Skyrim, I mean, something for combat and weapon wielding.

[QUOTE=Marbledemon;47802499]Alright, now I need a link for that outfit Gotta break the lore in style, at least[/QUOTE] Alright this is insanely late because I was asleep but [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19644/?"]Brown leather jacket from here[/URL] [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/37673/?"]Black & white alt muffler from here[/URL] [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40179/?"]And the sunglasses from this because they were only ones that work on Argonians[/URL] Other than that I'm wearing some pouches + book holder from Bandoliers (the version built into [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/49791/?"]CCO[/URL] specifically), the lute from [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/65636/?"]Become a Bard[/URL], and some fur-lined boots (additem 5DB7E, otherwise they're only in the East Empire Company warehouse) from the vanilla game.
