What if the dragonborn turned traitor? What if he joined the Thalmor, the antagonistic elven supremacists who seek to eradicate the Nords' religion, and led them in a military campaign to take over Skyrim?
This is Conquest of Skyrim, an in-depth faction creation and Civil War overhaul mod that lets you build your own army, manage cities, attack the Stormcloaks and the Imperials, and become Skyrim's high king. www.nexusmods....
In this video, we join the Thalmor as their commander-in-chief in Skyrim, and oversee a massive military operation to take over the Reach and set up a new regime with us as Markarth's jarl. This mod has a ton of features, like base conquering, massive battles, city management, and a negotiation system. You can recruit NPC's from around Skyrim to join your faction and serve in important roles, like steward, general, blacksmith, court mage, and army commander. You can build siege equipment, take over cities, eliminate rival patrols, arrest your citizens, throw parades, and more! It's a super ambitious mod, still a work in progress, and I hope you enjoy.

I don't think the Thalmor did a direct survey for that unemployement number.
How else would they do it other than talking to and/or following every single person?
@@nova.noveiiasending out surveys, which would discriminate against the illiterate working class, making them unable to properly respond which could lead to such differences from the generalized survey compared to a direct survey of the city
@@nova.noveiiathere’s a channel called Any Austin that’s done just that lmao
@@Flameorb222 damn, someone’s angry. maybe the illiterate working class should just learn to read, did you ever think of that?

No, only a cringey zoomer would think so. 😅
as in the thalmor are hated in the community
The dog named VIGILANCE getting blindsided by a whole as fireball has to be the greatest source of irony in the video.
They defended their lord with vigilance😂
@@isaacvale918 Madara is merely Kaguya's puppet for revival. They also hyped Kaguya since 2007 as Black Zetsu was watching Naruto and Sasuke fight at the Final Valley where Madara and Hashirama statue stands. Can't wait for Kaguya to take what's hers!
Black Zetsu or Kaguya stomp Madara too. Also, Hashirama, Hagoromo, Isshiki, Jigen, Momoshiki, Delta, Naruto and Sasuke, Fused Boruto, Code, Juubito, Dual MS Prime Obito (100% chakra) etc
Madara's cool in terms of powers but as an actual characters he's kinda lame imo.
Dude shit talks during the fight like he's not an immortal zombie with stolen powers. Like dude Hashirama kicked your ass so bad you stole his flesh and went into hiding for decades.
Also the whole "Wake up to reality" thing is super ironic considering his entire plan relies on doing the exact same shit he's complaining about. At least Pain called a spade a spade.
@@wooshbait36 why are you ranting about naruto here?
@@udozocklein6023 Yo, deadass Skyrim gives me mad Naruto vibes, so I had to drop that here, you feel me? 💀 If you got beef with that, it's straight cap, no cap. 😤 Like, fr fr, both slap so hard it's not even funny. 🔥 Catch me simping for both, idc idc. You trippin' if you can't see the connection, lil bro. It's giving main character energy and I'm here for it. 💯
@@wooshbait36 the fuck?
Hiring Runil to be a Thalmor is crazy, his whole backstory is that he wants to redeem himself for the things he did as a thalmor
That’s exactly what I thought 😭
PLEASE make this a series!!! I would love to watch you taking over the entirety of Skyrim. That would be freaking sweet
Skyrim...but I'm a THALMOR!
The Thalmor Files
This content would make for a good series. Nobody really does this. Cause nobody really likes the Thalmor. But this has potential.
keep it going :)
please keep it going!!!
"We'll give you 2000 gold a day."
"Unacceptable."
"OK, how much do you want?"
"1000 gold per day."
"You're not very good at this, are you?"
I see Any Austin, I say DIRECT SURVEY
Also General Tullius is so bad at peace negotiations omg
He's really letting himself go. Because usually he's rather far sighted in terms of politics.
And the empire needs Markath and Falkreath. That is the only route between Cyrodiil and High Rock that doesn't go through independent Hammerfell.
This mod looks legit kinda like exactly what I wanted from Skyrim's civil war and then some
I like how he's so baffled that the unarmored ranged mages aren't doing great against the well armoured melee focused soldiers in close quarters fighting.
This never would've happened had he let Bosmer and Khajiit into the army. Being lore accurate does a body good.
Interesting that you declared war on the Imperials first despite the peace treaty they both have
Technically the Thalmor and the Stormcloaks are already at war.
Accurate Thalmor behavior
'We're only accepting high elves because everyone else is a loser"
I love it!
He could have had a few of the other races as well due to the fact that historically the Aldmeri Dominion wasn't ENTIRELY high elves, I can't remember if it was the dark elves or the wood elves but one of them sided with them in several wars and I believe the argonians(?) sided with them it was them or the khajiit but I'm pretty sure the Aldmeri Dominion ended up invading elsweyr so I'm pretty sure the khajiit weren't them.
To be fair I'm basing this off the ESO faction system (which I haven't touched in like 4 years and barely played in the first place) so I mean... Take that as you will considering these are just vague memories from the back of my head 😂
@@Gr1mzR34p3rnah, you are right
@@Gr1mzR34p3r you're kind of half there. In ESO we see the first dominion which is completely different from the second dominion in skyrim, except perhaps in the territory it controls. The bosmer and altmer are traditional allies, and valenwood is part of both aldmeri dominions. Although the Thalmor are a lot less respectful of the bosmer than the previous dominion, with purges apparently happening in valenwood. The khajiit aren't part of the second dominion directly like the bosmer are but they're close allies and vassals of it. Also the dominion is seemingly locked in a cold war against the empire with both of them being basically the only thing between the other and complete domination of tamriel.
So, Elders & Scrolls: Bannerlord?
Looks really in-depth but I feel like I’d go insane managing this many things.
Any Austin mentioned
✨THATS RIGHT! DIRECT SURVEY✨
Honestly exchanging Markarth for Whiterun isn't awful. Whiterun gives you access everywhere and is the economic center and Markath has the issue of reachmen and is right near the imperial border which makes it vulnerable
Depends on the situation, I agree that Whiterun is a great economic center, but Markarth is well fortified, I think Markarth is good to hold if you can keep the area well supplied along with the surrounding towns as well as the terrain is different since the entrance and the close area surrounding Markarth is hilly compared to Whiterun which is flatter. I think it depends on the situation.
The reach has like 90% of the silver mines in skyrim
@@TheKonkaman Yeah but still it's near the rest of the empire so they have a lot of ways to come to you and is difficult to manage because of the forsworn. Whiterun is a lot more stable, has lots of planes so a major supplier of food and is the economic center supposedly so trade would aldo be in your hands. In addition if you set up in Whiterun you have a way to get petty much everywhere. Though I think the biggest issue of this playthrough is starting with Markarth. Should've started with Dawnstar or Winterhold giving access to the sea. Winterhold has the college but it's also closer to Windhelm so the rebels would be motivated to retake it more than if you take Dawnstar. In addition the nords don't really gain anything from the college because they sparely use magic at all. So I think it should go Dawnstar→Whiterun→Winterhold and then well I guess the Empire would cease the opportunity to take Riften so you should get to Windhelm ASAP so you extinguish the rebellion before the Empire does and gain much of the territory. I also think he should've definitely won the war with Ulric first before taking on the entire Empire
@@sciana21 That actually is a good idea
@@sciana21 except you forget reality where leading your army of ELVES in the snow against NORDS is pretty stupid. Legit Russia and Germany in WW2...
20:09 general Tulius is on par with Patrick Star when it comes to negotiations lmao
which means he gets what he wants
Aren't the Thalmor allied with the Khajiit and Bosmer? As cannon fodder
The Aldmeri Dominion consists of Altmer, Bosmer, and Khajiit, yes. But I believe only Altmer join the Thalmor (the government's "secret police" more or less).
Yeah the Dominion conquered Valenwood and Elsweyr before they declared war on the Empire.
not as much for the bosmer. they rule valennwood yes but they don't rule over all the bosmer. bosmers still live in their forests and the thalmor don't dare go inside those forests, or they will get slaughtered. the bosmer are still pretty independent and live without caring about the thalmor
@@samoclese6435 well they kinda tricked Esweyr into an alliance with ... weird moon things
@@ChronicNewbsweet sweet skooma
A idea: have the forsworn take over the reach with this mod. lol
There was a pretty nifty forsworn mod back for the OG edition of Skyrim you could take over certain locations and eventually markarth. You can port it to SE but it's slightly buggy doing that like i did. It like half worked.
omg sounds cool :0
I like how the mod lets you hire random people for any high-level position, even when they're clearly unqualified for it.
Honestly, hoping there's actual consequences/effects for doing so, and for poaching people from pre-existing factions. Or help to prosecute the Civil War *for* one of the pre-existing factions.
Imagine recruiting one of the children 😂
@a.t.6535 You can! I have a mod patch that adds dialogue for them. And then a mod that makes them playable then they can be appointed in your government. Both are ESL flagged so they don't take up a load order slot.
Edit: My replies keep getting deleted by TH-cam. To the responses, thanks but no I did not make the mod, Galvatron did, he's done literally everything. I just made additional voice patches, made a patch to allow children, Vampires and Elders to be appointable. And I also made the war tents and Imperial Banners seen in the mod.
@@simdrew1993 You made this mod? Hats off to you! And, that's hilarious. I will definitely check it out when I want an unhinged playthrough. Pulling up a list of the least suitable court mages/generals/etc. now!
Ok but like…Taarie would be a badass general.

Did your steward even conduct a DIRECT SURVEY?!
Such a great mod, for sure! Brought up an army of Argonians from Morrowind to occupy Riften and then the whole province haha
So much you can do with it!
Tremendously based!
I hope you didn't forget bring all the criminals (+Dunmer collaborators) in Windhelm to justice for the way they treated our brothers and sisters? 👀
@@FormerlyBlueis this mod completely finished?
Also I expect it to crash often just because how...heavy it is and changes basically everything
No its still a wip but its fun @@ComicDubbers
I thought you said you were the bad guy, but then you decided to enforce elven supremacy on the mongrel dogs of the empire.
Elven supremacy is the only truth!
The issue is he's supporting the wrong elves, dunmer supremacy

@@TeaTime574 ignoring the fact that alinor has always been more powerful than morrowind in every way
It’s not betrayal if you were never with them in the first place this is completely moral
Technically he’s still betraying his own kind, the nords.
@@Ethan_Chappell fair
I mean, I don't think that you can seriously call conquest moral...
@@peterlewis2178 what are you talking about we all know how morally Christopher Columbus treated the native Americans…
@@Drewster-kw8ru I hope you're being sarcastic. I assume you are, and that this is a joking way of sort of agreeing with my comment, but to be honest it's kind of hard to decipher what you actually meant with your comment considering how out of the blue the Christopher Columbus reference is.
Honestly probably the coolest mod I've seen in a long time. That said, I am a little concerned that it hasn't been updated in over a year, though I did find a comment in the forum saying that it supposedly has an update coming soon. The biggest concern though is that this mod has to have a ton of compatability issues with other mods, and it's probably very easy to break your game, so I do have to wonder how usable it'd be in a full playthrough, rather than just a playthrough that's only focused on this mod.
It very much seems like a mod built to be used by itself.
It's only really properly developed by one guy, I'm pretty sure, and during his work on this mod he got hired by some kind of software or game company I believe. So he has less free time to work on the mod, and progress slowed. I'm sure it'll still see plenty of improvement and development, we'll just have to be more patient.
As to the mod compatibility, that's something that's true about literally any large-scale mod. As the mod gains more visibility, people will probably patch it more for other popular mods. Also, the next update is supposed to make the mod much more stable and more playable for a regular playthrough.
In terms of lore the thalmor would be more discreet and less violent, but this makes my thalmor heart happy

Well, one could certainly say that "negotiations were short."
I'll see myself out now.
I always wanted to be able to join the thalmor when i played High Elf
sometimes i look at these mods and think, Bethesda couldve done this, lore wise, but why didnt they?
Thank the nine! for Mods
Things like this is what sucks about not having a PC and only being able to play on the switch. The anniversary edition is great, but there's so many mods I want to try.
I used to play Skyrim on the switch, I definitely do not regret switching to a powerful pc, I now have made a custom modlist with over 500 mods, and I'm having a blast, it's genuinely so much more fun.
@@Redstoniste damn, if I had the resources. I told my wife that once we do get a PC, I'm getting Skyrim for it 😂. She seems ok with that.
The mod is avalaible on xbox
Out of all people... you execute Eltrys... YOU MONSTER
And after he encouraged people to leave a comment!
The worst part is he says himself that he doesn’t worship talos, he just goes there cause it’s secluded.
That sounds like something a Talos worshipper would say
The thalmor probably just have a different definition of "employment"
I hope this project grows to its full potential. Imagine orcs finally getting their own land. Imagine forsworn getting their revenge. Imagine werewolves ruling the country. Imagine army of daedras or undeads. Imagine rebuilding the snow elf culture.
''I'm gonna recruit more of this mages. They seem to be doing great'' - Said after they destroyed half of their own squad xD
Unless that is, friendly fire is turned off
idk man, being a Thalmor Supremacist sounds even worse than helping Ulfric
helping ulfric was bad because he was the losing side
with dragonborn with the thalmor, they are from 50% to 100% winning
So... a normal Skyrim Playthrough?

“Duh”
- William Eyelash
please do a whole series on this! make a faction and take over all the citys of skyrim. i would watch every episode!
I was always thinking about making "3rd choice" in Civil war. This mod loooks very nice!
this mod is about to be my pandora's box. a massive amount of my current load order is centered around the civil war - and i'm about to delete basically all of it so i can replace it with this mod (which was basically just a bunch of different mods that did what this mod does, just significantly worse by the looks of this video)
I've been wanting a mod like this for a while. Definitely gonna check it out.
THIS NEEDS TO BE A SERIES
one of the best mods ever if you disregard any of the main quest really. in my first conquest (riften) i had like 10 armies already so everything was just cheese and that doesn't even include any mages or dwemer stuff because the mage research on my campaign is broken so we gotta do shit the traditional way lol
I'm just playing this mod as a herma-mora loyal Dragonborn with an army of Lurkers, Seekers and Watchers. I love this game!
5:54 lol and Hannibal feeling like the GOAT after his little trek around the Alps.
You should do more with this mod
This should be a major component of TESVI. Some day we’ve got to be able to meaningfully be Emperors!!
This is what I'm doing on my current playthrough!! It's awesome to see a video about it. I don't have this mod, I've just been trying to roleplay by myself to try and act as though I'm a Thalmor agent. It's too bad there's nothing you can really do in the base game.
I think you should keep going like make it where you complete the whole map and you take over the whole world in Skyrim
“Instead of picking stormcloak or imperial, well be selling skyrim out to the thalmor”
…so you picked imperial?
This is such a cool mod! I would love to see more, maybe with orcs or argonians taking over Skyrim.
Also to clarify, to gain commanders to need to conquer specific locations. Also declaring war on the empire is a bad idea if you aren’t prepared (like he was) cause they can retake stuff you conquered FAST. So you gotta have strong soldiers and large armies to secure the areas you conquered. Moving fast isn’t enough, like it would be for stormcloaks cause they have a far more massive army.
Oh also if you have peace talks and say you will give nothing, they will glitch out and say they will give you a hold for nothing lol.
Also if you reject the initial deal in peace talks and say you’ll give nothing they will end up giving you a hold for free.
Also he didn’t fully take the Reach cause he didn’t take over the fort there. To take over a hold fully you gotta take over the roads, the city itself and the fort of that hold. The enemy army can take it back but if you get all the holds and defeat the faction fully in the war that faction is dissolved and if you get all the holds and everything in them you can become high king/queen if your jarls you choose for your conquered holds approve of you (basically build up their hold’s infrastructure, make them pay no taxes and turn off conscription and you should be good after a few in game days). You then have a vote and it passes you become the new high king/queen and get coronated with a crown that marks you as the ruler of Skyrim for a along as you wear it and thus any npc in the vanilla game would consider you as “your grace”, “your highness” or “my king/queen”.
With how mans was recruiting basically every named High Elf, I was expecting mans to eventually just hire the old goddamn dying man Nurelion. I mean it could happen, still in the middle of the vid.
I rarely comment, but I would love a part two. These videos give me a lot of ideas for my own Skyrim playthroughs and are just fun to watch!
Gonna need to try this out, looks like a better way to RP the Dragonborn becoming high king
Please take over all of Skyrim
Watched the entire video 4 times already and can confirm it’s a certified banger
Certified Ruler classic. One might even say that’s its Meaning is Education…
no you haven't its not even been out long enough to do that on 2x
Wow this mod is so cool! I bet it’d be real fun to take Windhelm for the Dunmer :D
I don't think this mod has slavery modeled in it, so there's no point doing a Dunmer playthough
I love that you had a mini civil war within your own ranks for a second there 😂😂
If you join the stormcloaks as a lizard, youre legally allowed to kill anything on two legs in the land.
"Skyrim belongs to the nords" is a very confusing phrase to hear hissed from a naked scaleback swinging a mace of paralysis. Goodluck thalmor
3:44 I think you should’ve gotten ancano from the college of winter hold

This seems like a really well-put-together mod, and I think I'm gonna give this one a playthrough! Reminds me a lot of my favorite game series, Mount & Blade.
The Skald guy in the tavern is also a Talos worshiper. He has an amulet. xD
Lorkhan's wayward son. How far he has fallen. Siding with those who would unmake his creation.
please do more of this, it would be so awesome ❤
Yes!!! I'm normally for the empire, but I'd love to see more of this mod. I'm tempted to get it myself.
same
I tried it once but I gave up after my 1 army couldn't keep the hold I just conquered
I heard somewhere 2 is fine, like 1 one in the fort and another on the roads
I was expecting a Third Great War video, but honestly, conquest of skyrim is so great
Would be amazing if the mod developers added dwemer race mod compatibility, so you could make dwemers come back and retake Skyrim
That would be amazing
I can't believe you wanted to throw a parade so badly you actually, willingly sat through a ceasefire negotiation scene. I have completed the entire civil war questline before doing Skyrim's main quest purely in order to avoid that scene in the vanilla game XD
The mod creator needs serious support
Easiest way to kill the big army’s is full cyclone or summon storm shouts because I’ve taken over all of Skyrim with this mod bc of them
This was awesome would love to see you conquer the whole map
Me, taking out the entire city guard because I'm bored: Not enough soldiers? Recruits? A true dragonborn could take on Skyrim by themselves
Bruh, I just started a new playthrough of Skyrim. You have impeccable timing!
I suggest doing some other ones of the more niche factions, like 'what if mirrak took over skyrim' 'what if the forsworn took over markarth' or something
Just finished this mod, it's incredible. The creator Galvatron has said it will finally be updated either by the end of the month or next month at the latest. It will be bigger than ever!
"oh no this can't be happening! they updated skyrim so all my mods are broken!"
Nobody's the "bad guy" in Skyrim. Just different alliances, that's all.
I always wanted to play Mount & Blade: Skyrim. Time to take over Skyrim as your own faction!
YEAAAAAH BLUE HAS MORE THINGS
WE NEED MORE OF THIS!NOW!
"Turns out... taking over the world is hard" - Formerly Blue 2024
I had an idea for a mod but I’m not technically inclined. It makes no sense to me how you basically unite the realm but still have to choose one side or the other instead of just becoming king or queen yourself. You have the college, dark brotherhood, thieves guild, companions and more at your back willing to fight for you. That should be enough to initiate a takeover.
that skooma seller in the middle of the siege is such a mood
1:55 yes, racial discrimination is tight!…
This mod is exactly what i needed for my high elf necromancer "Dark Lord" playthrough haha gonna be so fun.
I did Sauron with an orc army it was fun
If I ever get this mod, execution for every crime just to play as a heretical tyrant
