steamteck Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I get a bounty for defending the local guards from the stormcloaks in Whiterun or from defending the stormcloaks from the imperials in Windhelm environs if I'm not actually a soldier. So yeah, that's a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zementschleirentferner Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I think this is a bug. You're at war and killing the enemy shouldn't count as murder + a bounty. I always do the Civil War for the Imperials, and i need to stop a courier between the Nightgate Inn and Windhelm. It just so happens that the Forgotten Cave is right on the road between the two places. There is always a troll at the door. I let the troll kill the courier for me, kill the troll next and go on my merry way to Rike.Maybe it's possible to do the same in your game? Have wild life kill the courier? Or some bandits? I never did it for the Stormcloaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jormunrr Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Let them attack you first to avoid the bounty. This is true even for the courier intercept mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
