Skyrim Imperial Army (walkthrough). Skyrim Imperial Army (walkthrough) How to regain the favor of people in Skyrim

There is a low-intensity war going on in Skyrim. The Legion of the Empire wants to increase its influence and force the Nords to respect the laws of the empire, which is often Skyrim, while the Stormcloaks fight for the independence of their lands.

Important: there is no clear good or bad side. Each has both good things and its own “skeletons in the closet”.

How to join the imperial army?

Go to Solitude and find the "Gloomy Castle" building there (which doesn't look like a castle at all), and talk to Legate Rikke there, she will give you the introductory task.

Joining the Legion

Gives: Legate Rikke
The essence of the task: to clear the Ford from bandits.

The task is simple: come to the Ford marked on the map and kill all the bandits there. After which we return to Rikka and say the oath. All that remains is to go to the blacksmith and get imperial armor. Welcome to the Imperial Legion.

Serrated crown

Gives: Legate Rikke
The essence of the task: You need to find the legendary Jagged Crown

Rikke asked us to help her find the Jagged Crown. Our path lies in the ancient burial place of the Nords called Corvanyud:

Arriving at to the right place, we learn that the Storm Brothers are already inside and we will have to fight our way through. Having reached the passage, killing all the Stormcloaks along the way, we will be asked to find a workaround, because... Rikke is sure that there is a trap ahead of us. The bypass is located directly above us, you can get to it using the stairs.

Note: By taking the bypass route, you can drop a jug on enemies, which will ignite the oil under the Stormcloaks' feet, hastening their death. This can be done with an arrow or a spell.

Having killed all the enemies, we go to the next burial level. And almost at the very beginning of the level we will encounter a door, to open which we need a claw; it lies next to the door. Answer to the puzzle:

Next we come to a room with bars. And we are again asked to find a way to open it. You need to climb the stairs and cross to the other side on the platforms. There will be a handle that you need to pull. Once the grate opens, four Draugr will emerge from the coffins.

Note: After climbing the stairs, find the dagger that is lying on the tile, pick up the dagger and a secret passage will open. When going to the chest, be careful; interacting with it will activate a trap.

Note: At the end of the corridor there is a wall with a word of power.

Message for Whiterun

Gives: General Thulius
The essence of the task: You need to take a letter from Thulium to the Earl of Whiterun, and then give the ax to Ulfric.

After we have brought the Jagged Crown, we will be sent to take a message to the Jarl of Whiterun.

Note: If you have not completed the main quest yet, you will first have to go to the dungeon and/or kill the dragon.

The Jarl of Whiterun asks us to take the ax to Ulfric (which means war). Having brought the ax, we learn that Ulfric is going to storm Whiterun, we need to warn the jarl. When we arrive, we find out that the battle has already begun.

Battle of Whiterun

Quentius Scipius sends us to the front line under the command of Legate Rikke. When we approach Rikka, she will give an inspiring speech and send us off to fight. The goal is simply to kill the Stormcloaks. Their number is measured as a percentage, with each rebel corpse this number drops, you need to bring it to zero. Also additional task there will be holding positions: first we must defend the barricades, preventing the enemy from breaking through them. If the protective fences are destroyed, the squad will retreat a little, and the goal will be to hold the drawbridge. It is not necessary to do this; the main task is to kill opponents.

Note: If you have a companion, he will remain in the city and will not go into battle with you.

Having killed all opponents, we can go to the city gates and listen to the earl’s speech, or we can immediately go to Tulius. Returning to Tullius, we will receive a good blade and a new title Questor.

Unification of Skyrim

Gives: General Tullius
The essence of the task: Clear the forts and carry out Rikka's orders.

This task combines several others, the common goal of which is the complete reconquest of Skyrim. This quest is related to the main story quest " Endless time", during which it is necessary to conduct peace negotiations between the Stormcloaks and Imperial Legion. Depending on the decision you make, the factions will exchange cities and, accordingly, take control of a new possession. If you have already completed this task, then you need to capture the Reach, and if not, the Rift.

Regain control of White Beach

Gives: General Tullius

Note: If Dawnstar was handed over to the Imperials during the quest "Time Without End", this quest will be skipped.

Thulius will send us to a camp on the White Coast with the Imperials. We are again under the command of Legate Rikke. She wants us to feed misinformation to the Stormcloaks, but to do this we must first find the original. Rebels who have documents most often stay in two taverns, one located in Windhelm, and the other outside the cities. The second option is the best. We go to the tavern and convince the owner to help us.

Note: Most easy way persuade the innkeeper to say that the rebels are in danger.

Having learned from the tavern owner the route of the messenger, we can easily track him. All that remains is to pick up the package. Having collected the package, we return to the legate. The order states that Fort Dunstad needs help. The legate will falsify the document, thereby depriving the fort of support and misinforming the Dawnstar commander. Our goal is to take the fake documents to the rebel commander in Dawnstar. Frokmar the Torn Banner will easily believe that we had to change clothes so that the “enemies” would not notice us and will accept the forged orders, thanking us for the delivery. And we should go back to Rikka. She will praise us and give us gold.

Legate Rikke will send us to help a detachment of legionnaires capture Fort Dunstad, which thanks to us was left without the support of the rebel forces. When approaching, the squad will rush forward, beginning an assault on the enemy fort.

Note: It is not necessary to go straight to the marked marker. You can simply approach the fort, then the battle will begin and the legionnaires will appear.

When the battle is over, we must return to Solitude to General Tullius, who will report that capturing the White Coast will give a huge advantage to the Imperial Legion. As a reward for completing the task, the general will give you the title of Prefect and reward you with a random weapon or armor (depending on the character level).

Note: There is a small bug - General Tullius will say that he is promoting us in rank and giving us a blade as a reward. But he himself can give away not a blade at all, but a shield, for example.

Take back control of the Rift

Gives: General Tullius
The essence of the task: Follow Rikka's orders.

Note: If Riften was handed over to the Imperials during the quest "Time Without End", this quest will be skipped.

The next possession that must be returned to the rule of the Empire Rift. The general again sends us under the command of Rikke. Upon arrival, we will be instructed to go to Riften and try to find out how much the ruler of Jarl Anuriel is susceptible to blackmail. Rikka knows that the manager is quite closely connected with the Thieves Guild, and the legion can take advantage of this by threatening the manager with the declassification of not very honest affairs. This is what we will do. We need to take the letter from Anuriel's chest of drawers and then show it to her. This will make her think and she will want to talk to us alone. Anuriel will tell us that a strategically important caravan of rebels with gold and weapons has set off towards Windhelm, and it can turn the tide of the war.

Note: If you have a high Speech skill, you can beg her for gold.

We return to the legate and tell her what we learned. Rikke will send you to find a small group of legionnaires, led by our old friend Hadvar, who have been sent to scout the exact region where the rebel caravan is supposed to pass. Having joined the legionnaires, we must rob the caravan. Having removed the Storm Brothers, we can return to Rikka and get some more gold.

Note: Don't forget to empty the chest that is in the cart.

Upon returning to the imperial camp, the legate will instruct you next task together with a detachment of legionnaires, capture Fort Greenwall, which, due to the capture of the caravan, was left without support and weapons. Having reached the waiting legionnaires, we will move to attack the unsuspecting Stormcloak soldiers. The already familiar principle of capturing a fort awaits us - clearing out enemies.

Regain control of Winterhold

Gives: General Tullius
The essence of the task: Follow Rikka's orders.

Arriving at Rikka, we learn that a detachment of imperials is being held captive by the rebels in Fort Kastav. Our goal is to sneak into the fort, free the prisoners and capture the fort. But first you need to talk to Hadvar, he will tell you about the location of a secret hatch that leads directly to the fort.

Note: If you are spotted, you will have to fight immediately and the sneak infiltration will fail.

Having made our way into the fort, we must free our brothers in arms; this can be done simply by picking up the key on the table or from the Stormcloaks, or opening the locks ourselves. Now that the prisoners have been freed, we can begin to capture the fort.

We will need to kill all the rebels, and when we exit into the courtyard, Hadvar will also join us. After we kill all the enemies, Hadvar will express his gratitude to us.

Note: The prisoners are not required to survive. Sometimes Hadvar and his squad come to the rescue slowly or do not appear at all, this is a bug.

Now we can return to Tullius and receive a new rank Legate, and a reward in the form of weapons or armor.

Take back control of Eastmarch

Gives: General Tullius
The essence of the task: Follow Rikka's orders.

We are again under the command of Legate Rikke, although this is a little strange - after all, we are of the same rank as her, but not the essence. Our task is to clear Fort Amol. Standard battle, nothing complicated.

Then we return to the legate, she sends us to Tullius, she is waiting for us final battle. We go straight to the gates of the city of Windhelm.

Battle of Windhelm

Gives: Legate Rikke
The essence of the task: Capture Windhel and overthrow Ulfric.

When we arrive, we will hear a speech from Tullius and learn that he himself is leading the assault. Together with a detachment of legionnaires we enter the city through the main gate. We'll be right in the middle of the battle, but this time we'll leave the bulk of the fighting to the soldiers. Our task is to, together with General Tullius and Legate Rikke, make our way to the Royal Palace and find Ulfric Stormcloak there. The main path is blocked, you will have to take a detour. We need to turn left from the gate of the fortress and go out to the trading area, turning right from the forge and passing between the houses, we will go out to the city cemetery. Next, we must climb the steps to the right, passing the Hall of the Dead, and breaking the next barricade, go to the estate area. Turn right again, and, having passed through the alley, climb the stairs to the left, there will only be one barricade left, then the fortress. Entering the fortress we will see Petrel and Galmar.

Tullius will order Ulfric to surrender, but the rebel leader will refuse this offer and attack. We need to kill Galmar and wound Ulfric. Before his death, the rebel leader will announce his last wish: will ask to be executed by Dovahkiin. We will be given the choice of killing Ulfric Stormcloak, or giving this opportunity to General Tullius. In any case, the rebel leader will be killed, and the general will thank us for our service and leave his sword. All that remains is to listen to Tullius’s speech.

Lydia is one of the first companions in the enchanting world. For those who don't know where to find Lydia in Skyrim, she appears after completing the main quest "Rise of Dragons".

The jarl himself will appoint her to your hurkasly: ​​she will meet you when you leave Drakensberg Peak. This is one of the strongest partners, specializing in one-handed swords and bows. However, like any other resident of Skyrim, she is not immortal. She is not easy to kill, and periodically, instead of dying, she kneels and rests for a while. But if she was nevertheless killed, and the question of how to resurrect Lydia arises in your head, then simply press ~ and enter Resurrect in the menu that appears, after clicking on the corpse of your deceased partner with the left mouse button. However, it must be remembered that the armor that was on her before her death may disappear. This is a bug. The world is truly great in its vast expanses. And it’s no wonder you get lost in its forests, fields and mountains. The hero has the ability to travel long distances on horseback, but the girl does not have this opportunity and is forced to travel on foot.

Often she stays behind the hero, getting lost in the textures, or gets too carried away with the battle and chases the enemy, disappearing into the labyrinths of dungeons. There are some tips for those who lost Lydia in the heat of battle or rode far away, avoiding ravines in which computer characters tend to get stuck.

How to return Lydia to Skyrim:

1) It’s enough just to wait for one hour in the place where you are (although it’s not necessary, because it happens that after a couple of seconds it appears on the horizon and runs no worse than the same horse). This operation works with all other satellites lost in the open spaces.
2) If the waiting trick didn’t work, then there is the option that she will be waiting for you in your house (if you have one), or will be sitting in the palace of the Earl of Whiterun at one of the tables (look closely and you will definitely notice her) .
3) Lydia’s ID 000A2C94

It is possible to get married in the world. You need to get the amulet of Mara from Maramal, the priest of Mara in the temple of Riften. Having bought an amulet for 200 gold, after putting it on first, you can ask the villager you like if he likes you. You can even have same-sex marriages. However, many people have a problem with marrying a partner. Getting married to Lydia in Skyrim is possible, but a bug makes it more difficult. You need to leave the girl at home (she should not be a companion), open the console and click on Lydia with the mouse. Then enter the command addfac 19809 1. If this does not work, try not putting the last unit. This fixes the bug.

In Skyrim, you can literally undress people in broad daylight, you just need to dig through their pockets using pickpocketing. The clothes are removed, and the character is left literally naked. For those who were wondering how to undress Lydia in Skyrim, the answer is even simpler. There is no need to resort to pickpocketing, just remove all her clothes through the item exchange option. Not everyone can have it removed immediately; in this case, all of their items need to be replaced with stronger ones. How? She automatically puts on best equipment, which you give her (this is the answer for those who are wondering how to dress Lydia in cooler things). Then you can take away all the things related to clothing from her, and voila, your companion in her underwear shyly covers herself with a shield in front of you.
