LE Fighting the Thalmor

[Reiju120]

Hello everyone.

To begin with, I would like to say that I am French and therefore I use a translator to write in English.

I want to share with you a mod idea just like that. It's neither a desire nor a wish. Just a simple idea and reflection.

Here it is; imagine a mod for skyrim and skyrim se, where we would manage to bring together the two big rival factions of the game, the stormcloaks and the imperials to help us fight the real threat of skyrim, which is the Thalmor!

We do have mods like Return to Helgen which allows us to become emperor and hunt him afterwards.

Two mods that allow you to be a high king and fight it, Windhelm and BHKOS.

A mod that allows us to join revolutionaries and hunt the Thalmor once again, Outlaws and Revolutionaries (although I didn't really feel that we were hunting the Thalmor in this mod).

And a mod that allows us to fight him using one of the two clans, The Second Great War.

But why not a mod that allows us to rally the two clans against the Thalmor, led by the Dovakhiin.

This one could have the same principle except instead of having one or the other, we have both on our side. After all, they both have the same common enemy.

Yes, you're going to say of course, "They already agreed to a truce so the dovakhiin could fight Alduin, I don't think they'd agree again".

It doesn't have to be with Tulluis and Ulfric as leaders.

He could very well have a npc replacing Tulluis or Ulfric. And the mod could very well be before the fight against Alduin or the Civil War.

I'm not talking about completely defeating the Thalmor of Tamriel, we all know that's impossible, the seat is in Alinor on the Autumn Archipelago which is impregnable. But just drive the Thalmor out of Skyrim or weaken it.

In game, it's a mission to convince both clans with the threat that the Thalmor is about to do something terrifying or threatening, like declare war.

We're going to see the two clans, obviously they're reluctant at first but after a series of events they realise that the threat is very serious and that their little war won't help. With the help of the dovakhiin, or PC, they agree to call a truce and join forces to fight the Thalmor.

This would lead to some awesome battles and especially to a huge epic battle Imperial Sombrages vs Thalmor and the Dovakhiin with both clans.

At the end of the mod, we could show that the thalmor is weakened in Skyrim, less raiding of Nordic people, less oppression. And the cult of Thalos less weakened.

Because between you and me, the threat of Alduin is ridiculous. I never really felt a real threat except at the beginning in Helgen when he destroys everything.

Between him, Harkon and his stupid prophecy that was going to endanger the vampires and his family instead, and Miraak the stash, who just stays in Apocrypha and sends his henchmen.

For me, the real threat is the Thalmor who want the complete extinction of all life on Nirn to become deities; eliminating the cult of Thalos.

They are far more threatening and dangerous, they are discreet, devious and vicious.
