SSE A quick way to end the civil war story

[L0neW0lfie]

Mostly before it even has a chance to begin: Make Tullius and the racist Ulfric non-essential from the get-go, let them be able to be assassinated. The side whose leader is murdered loses the war flat out, progress the civil war quest to finished and make the appropriate changes involved with that side losing, assuming it's not automatic when the quest updates to complete. It has always kind of baffled me as to why isn't this an option to begin with? In a game with so much diversity and freedom, you think the ability to straight out murder either or both would be something you COULD do by default.

IIRC you can actually end it via a meeting with the grey beards which is pretty fast.

I was hoping for a more game-of-thrones solution as opposed to the UN solution. I've done season unending before and it still leaves a rather bitter taste in my mouth that I have to deal with the civil war (and Ulfric) up until that point. I'll point out that I really don't like either faction, it is really a better of two evils. But being able to choose which one without having to listen to them be children about it would certainly make the game far more enjoyable.
