A slow and exhausting war has engulfed all of Skyrim. The Imperial Legion is trying to become more powerful and force the Nords to obey the laws of the Empire, which includes Skyrim. And the Stormcloaks are trying to defend the independence of their land.
Note: None of the belligerents can be called right. Each has its good and bad sides, as well as its own secrets.
How to join the imperial army?
Find a house in Solitude called "Dark Castle" (however, it doesn't look like a castle at all). You will continue the passage of Skyrim with an introductory task from Legat Rikke (she is in the house).
Entry into the Legion
She will ask you to destroy all the robbers in the fort. This task is not difficult at all. You must get into the fort (will be visible on the map) and kill all the enemies. Then return to the customer and take the oath. Now you can go to the blacksmith and pick up your Imperial armor. Congratulations, you have joined the Imperial Legion...
jagged crown
Legate Rikke will again provide you with a new task. You need to find the Jagged Crown known from the legends. You must get to the ancient burial place for the Nords. It is called Corvanjud. However, upon arrival, you will be informed that you were ahead of the Storm Brothers. The passage of Skyrim will not do without a fight. Destroy them all and make your way to the entrance. You will then be forced to take a detour because Rikka suspects a trap ahead of you. The bypass is above your head. So find a ladder and hit the road.
Note: When following the detour, you will have the opportunity to throw a pitcher at the enemy to set fire to the oil at the feet of the Stormcloaks. This will help you finish them off. For all of the above, use a spell or an arrow. To complete Skyrim, after eliminating all opponents, go to the next tier in the burial. Almost at the entrance you will see a door, which can only be opened using a claw (it is located near the door). The puzzle can be solved like this: first the wolf, then the bird, then the remaining picture. Ahead of you is a room and a grate, which again will have to be opened somehow. Climb up the stairs, make your way to the back side through the platforms. To pass Skyrim, press on the handle that appears. This will open the grate, but then four Draugr will emerge from their coffins.
Note: after climbing the stairs, you can find a dagger (on a tile). Take it. Then you will see the opened secret passage. However, be careful with the chest - it will trigger a trap.
Ahead you will encounter a dead man, on whose head is the same Jagged Crown. Kill him and take the crown. Now return to Tullius. By the way, at the very end of the corridor you will find a wall on which a new word of power has been applied.
Message for Whiterun
Further, General Tullius will continue your passage of the Skyrim game with the next task. You will need to deliver Tullius' letter to the Jarl in Whiterun, and then give the ax to Ulfric. Note: In case you haven't completed the main quest yet, you must first go to kill the dragon in the dungeon.
Jarl in Whiterun will direct you to Ulfric (give him the ax). And this is a sign of the beginning of the war. Upon reaching it, you will be informed that Ulfric is already preparing to begin the assault on Whiterun. Therefore, you urgently need to convey this to the jarl. However, when you get to him, the fight will already begin.
Battle of Whiterun
You will go to the front ranks on orders from Quentius Scilius. Then join Legate Rikka. When you reach it, you will listen to an inspiring speech and join the battle. Here the passage of the game Skyrim does not pose any riddles - just kill all the Stormcloaks. You can see the degree of your victory or defeat in the percentage of the enemy's health. The more you destroy them, the lower the percentage will be. You need to reduce this number to zero. Another task of yours will be position control. At first, guard the barricades and do not let the enemy cross them. In the event that the enemy still advances through the barricades, you will retreat. Then the new goal will be to protect the bridge with a lift. However, these are not mandatory tasks. The main thing is to kill as many Stormcloaks as possible.
Note: your partner (if any) will not join you in battle, but will be waiting for you in the city.
After destroying all the enemies, either go to the city gates to listen to the jarl speak his speech, or go straight to Tullius. For completing this quest in Skyrim, you will become a "Questor", and you will also receive a good blade.
Unification of Skyrim
General Tullius will ask you this time to ensure the protection of the forts and carry out all orders coming from Rikke. This mission is unifying for a couple of side missions, but your main goal will be to defend Skyrim to the fullest. Also, this task is closely intertwined with the main story quest called "Endless Time". Passing the game Skyrim in it gives you the task of persuading the Stormcloaks and the Imperial Legion to negotiate and conclude a peace agreement. According to the decision, the warring parties will make an exchange of cities and, thus, will begin to introduce their command there. In the event that you have already completed this mission, capture the Reach, and if not, then head to the Rift.
Take back control of the White Coast
This mission is a continuation of the previous one. Here you need to follow orders from Rikke.
Tullius will ask you to go to meet the Imperials at their camp on the White Shore. And you will again enter into legate Rikke. The plan is this - you have to plant disinforming documents on the Stormcloaks. But first find their original. It is held by the militia, who often visit a couple of taverns in Windhelm and outside the city. Of course, it is easier to go the second way. Go to the tavern and persuade its owner to assist you.
Note: The easiest way to convince the innkeeper is to inform him of the danger that threatens the militias.
Find out the road along which the messenger will go from the owner of the inn and look for him. Select the documents and go back to the legate. In the papers you find, you will read that Fort Dunstad is asking for support. The legate falsifies the document. This will deprive the fort of help, and the commander of the dunstars will be misinformed. And you need to deliver fake papers to the Dawnstar militia commander. Frockmar, Torn Banner, will easily trust your assurances that you were forced to change clothes in order to make your way among opponents unrecognized. Thus, the false order will be accepted. And you will also be grateful for their delivery. To complete Skyrim, return to Rikka and listen to praise from her as well. In addition, you can take your well-deserved gold.
Then you will be sent to assist a detachment of legionnaires in the capture of Fort Dunstad. After all, through your efforts, he is without the support of the militias. As soon as you get close, your squad will launch an active attack on the enemy fort.
Note: You do not have to follow the specified beacon exactly. You can only approach the fort. And the battle will begin on its own (legionnaires will appear immediately).
After the end of the battle, go back to Solitude to meet with General Tullius. He will tell you that if the Imperial Army captures the White Shore, they will be far ahead. Successfully completing this mission in Skyrim will allow you to become a prefect and get some kind of weapon or armor (the type will depend on your level).
Note: a minor bug can be noticed here - Tullius will inform you about the promotion and the issuance of a blade to you. In fact, you can get a shield.
Take back control of the Rift
You will again obey Rikka.
Note: If Dawnstar served the Empire during the mission "Endless Time", this quest will be removed.
To pass Skyrim, now you have to win another city called the Rift for the empire. You will re-enter the legate of Rikke on the orders of General Tullius. On the spot you will be sent to Riften. There you will try to find out if it makes sense to start blackmailing Commander Jarl Anuriel. Rikke is sure that the Commander often interacts with the Thieves Guild, which can serve the Legion well. After all, he can make public some of her "sins." Here is your task. Steal the letter from the chest of drawers in Anuriel's room and tell her about it. Then she gets scared and asks to meet with her together. Anuriel will tell you that a certain very important caravan with the militia left for Windhelm. It is loaded with a variety of weapons and gold and is able to greatly influence the course of the war.
Note: If you have a high Speech skill, you can convince her to give you the gold.
Go to the legate, then tell Rikka about the news. She will send you in search of a detachment of legionnaires, which is controlled by the already familiar Hadvar. This group was sent to reconnoitre the situation in the area that the militia caravan was supposed to cross. Together with the legionnaires, you need to rob the caravan and kill the Stormcloaks. Then go back to Rikka and collect the gold for completing the quest in Skyrim.
Note: in the cart, don't miss the chest (dig through it).
Returning to the Empire Camp, you will get another task from the legate. It consists in the capture of Fort Greenwall with the help of a group of legionnaires. This fort after the robbery of the caravan is without weapons and any support. Having joined the legionnaires, start storming the fortress - you will take your enemies by surprise. You can capture the fort by destroying all enemies.
After completing the task, go to General Tullius. He will grant you a new title of "Tribune" and will again send you to the imperial camp in Winterhold to the Legate Rikka.
Take back control of Winterhold
On the spot, you will be informed that the militias in Fort Kastav have captured a group of Imperials. You need to sneak into the fort, release the prisoners, and then capture the fort. However, first, talk to Hadvar and find out from him where the secret hatch is located, through which you can get into the fort.
Note: Be very careful. You need to get through unnoticed. Otherwise, you will immediately enter the battle, and the task of covert penetration will fail. Find and free the prisoners inside the fort. To do this, find the key on the table (if it is not there, then search the Stormcloaks). And then, after the release of your brothers, begin to storm the fort. Kill all militias. In the courtyard, Hadvar will catch up with you and thank you for the massacre of opponents.
Note: captives do not have to stay alive. And Hadvar with his people can be slow or disappear altogether (another bug). Then return to Tullius, who will make you a Legate and give you armor or weapons.
Take back control of Eastmarch
Despite the fact that you received the same rank as Rikke, you will still continue to be under her command. Your goal will be to clear the fort called Amol. It will be an ordinary easy battle. Then return to the legate, and from there go to Tullius. There you will fight the final battle. Head to the city gates of Windhelm.
Entry into the Legion
If you decide to join the Imperial Legion and put down the rebellion in Skyrim, you need to speak with Legate Rikke at Castle Dour in Solitude.
You will be sent to clear Fort Hragstad. By oneself. It looks like the Imperials have decided to bring your execution to its logical end, at the hands of bandits. You need to clear the courtyard, including walls and towers, as well as premises: Fort Hrastad and Fort Hrastad - prison. Return to Legate Rikka and report on your success. Now you need to take the oath to General Thulius.
Attention! After taking the oath, you will no longer be able to join the Stormcloaks.
You will also receive a task, from the MISCELLANEOUS section, to obtain armor from a blacksmith.
jagged crown
So, Rikke has a task for you again. You need to get the Jagged Crown before the rebels. Travel to the ruins of Korvanjund. Near them you will meet Rikke with a small detachment. The legate will make a short speech. Talk to her when you're ready to attack. Outside, a small squad of Stormcloaks awaits you. Another legate's speech before entering. There are also some enemies inside. The most difficult thing here is to distinguish between insiders and outsiders. Be careful. Rikke will instruct you to go upstairs and get past the ambush. Those who wield fire can set fire to the oil under the soldiers. Go to Korvanjund - Halls.
There are a few more Stormcloaks here, and a door that opens with an Ebony Dragon Claw that lies right in front of her. Top-down sequence: wolf, butterfly, dragon. While the soldiers are walking back and forth, go forward, upstairs, pull the lever on the wall. This will wake up the draugr. Perebeyte them and go to Korvanjund - Crypt. You need to attack the draugr warlord who sits on the throne, as well as everyone else. Take the Jagged Crown from the body. Screaming on the wall - slowing down time. Search the crypt for usefulness and you can get out through the passage from above. Bring the crown to General Thulius.
Message for Whiterun
General Thulius ordered you to deliver important documents to Jarl Balgruuf about the impending attack on Whiterun by the Stormcloaks. After a little advice, the jarl will hand you an ax and send you straight to Windhelm to Ulfric Stormcloak. And he will return you to Balgruuf again. View another war council.
Battle of Whiterun
Travel to Legate Rikka through besieged Whiterun. Burning projectiles land everywhere, the inhabitants flee in panic to the castle. After another speech to Rikke, join the battle! You need all the opponents (some 100%), while preventing them from breaking into the city. Upon completion, go up to the entrance to the city and listen to Jarl Balgruuf's victory speech, at the end talk to him, get permission to buy a house in Whiterun.
Unification of Skyrim
Go to Solitude to General Thule. He will give you a very, very strong weapon. In my case, it was the Daedric (!!!) inferno sword, with 30 units. fire damage.
But your further adventures also depend on the plot task Endless Time. In it, you could make completely different decisions, so only you know which cities were given to whom. The essence of the task is to take them all under the control of the Empire.
Disinformation
So you arrive at the camp near the city. Speak with Legate Rikke. She will give you a task to steal important documents from the messengers. You need to arrive at the tavern on the way of the messenger. Talk to the innkeeper, bribe or convince him. He will give his location. Meet the messenger of the Stormcloaks, he will attack you on the offer to hand over the documents. Take the enemy documents and return to Rikka. Now you need to deliver the forged documents to the commander of the rebels in the city. Then return to Rikka.
Battle of Fort Dunstad
Since reinforcements will not arrive at this fort soon, Legate Rikke will instruct you and a detachment of soldiers to take it by storm. Meet this squad and attack the fort, kill some 100% of the soldiers in it, after which the rest will simply run away. Report to General Thule.
Fort Kastav - Rescue Comrades
Go to the named fort. Go down the hatch into the prison. The prisoners are talking about some guard, but I did not meet him here, but the key was on the table. Unlock all grates. Come out to the fort and fight! You need to kill all the Stormcloaks in the fort. Talk to Hadvar, whom you could see during the battle for Whiterun. Report success to Thulius.
Battle of Fort Snowhawk
Once again, you receive a task from Rikke to capture the fort. How sad it is that the battle does not take place in the city, as it was in Gothic 3, for example. Another 100% soldiers to kill. At the end, report to General Thulius.
Battle of Fort Sungard
It is possible that if you did not turn in Markarth to the Stormcloaks, this quest will not be available. Kill 100% of the soldiers and report to the general.
Battle of Fort Amol
Now it's Windhelm's turn. Legate Rikke will send you to Fort Amol to help the detachment in its capture. Return to Rikka at the camp for the final battle.
Battle of Windhelm
Finally a battle in the city! Find General Thule in front of Windhelm Gate. After his speech, you can enter the city. You need to break through a huge battle to the palace. Inside you will find yourself with General Thulius and legate Rikke. You will have to kill Galmar. Then you will be given a choice: kill Ulfric yourself, or leave it to Thulius. As a reward, Thulius will give you a wonderful sword (in my case, level 52, Daedric!). Windhelm will be completely rebuilt and will also get a new ruler. Now you can buy a house here and get the title of thane. This concludes the missions of the Imperial Legion. Glory to the Empire! For the emperor!
