I started the game. Rode the cart to the execution site. Got off the cart, created my character. Noticed when I finished the Captain is dead on the ground near Hadvar.
My character automatically "followed the Captain" closer to the block. The roar in the sky happens on cue. The first stormcloak goes up to the block, interrupts the priest, and finishes his "Come on, I don't have all morning!".
At this point the Captain is supposed to kick him behind the knees so he drops to the block. Captain can't do this; she's dead on the ground.
The stormcloak gives his "My ancestors are smiling at me, Imperial, can you say the same?" which is supposed to end in his decapitation. Except he's still standing up. And nothing can progress.
Anyone else run into this? I really don't want to go through tweaking another character if this is broken.
