Were there any other places besides Ald'Ruhn and Vivec taken or destroyed by Deadra during the Oblivion Crisis?

An independent imagination would deduce many places across the continent were, as the invasion occurred across all of Tamriel and Tamriel has lots of places in.

Thanks, I didn't know Kvatch was destroyed, I just thought it was a mint design idea, the smoke and flames really is quite flawless. :stare: :biglaugh:

Yeah, I didn't actually know that Ald'ruhn and Vivec were occupied/destroyed during the OB MQ... what exactly happened?

Vivec wasn't destroyed, or at least we haven't heard anything about it. (You would hear about the holy city in the habitable agricultural center of the island before news arrived the isolated desert)

The Daedra attacked Ald-Ruhn and the Redoran reanimated Skar. Didn't work, but holy [censored], the Manor District just stood up and went on an ass-kicking spree.

Edit: And MK and Kurt Kuhlmann got together, geeked out for a while and decided that the Hist completely tree-owned Dagon in Argonia.

The fact that those trees pwned so readily only serves to advance my theory that they are http://www.imperial-library.info/fsg/adventurousputtyarticle01.shtml.

THE TREES ARE SLITHERING AND TELLING ME THEIR SECRETS OH MY GOD EVERYTHING IS A LIE I --

On topic: I find it strange that we didn't get any casualty reports from High Rock and Hammerfell. I doubt the situation was particularly pretty there, though.

Also, I recall some discussion that Akavir may have been attacked, as well. I don't see why not, given Dagon's wish to conquer the whole of the realm, although some would make the (valid) point that Tamriel has always been the metaphysical center of the universe.

Are you, or have you ever been, a member of the Tamrielocentrist Party? You better be, because otherwise you're not cool. It also comes with with a subscription to Temple Zero Weekly and a novelty Out-of-Atmora Lying Viking punching bag.

You know, the only place really ever worth mentioning in Cyrodil is actually the White Tower. Simply because its what is a part of the motha[censored]ing barrier protecting Nirn. Akivar or whatever was in pacts and i guess their still in that for the ages to go.

They deserved a break, though. They were the two provinces the Camoran Usurper hit the hardest.

Eh, Akavir's not important when you're at an axis of divine reality.

You can also hear Nords talking about the forces of Oblivion destroying their cities. (Winterhold, I think?)

Is there anywhere in TIL that I can find this stuff? I've been searching for the past hour, but I must not be using the correct search terms...

Or so say the conscientious objectors to further expansion of the Empire. Tamriel is not the center of the world and that the lands beyond the four oceans are so much stranger and so much more magical can only be seen as evidence that Tamriel is in fact as far from the center of the world as possible! We now know of Uriel Vs mistakes and we do not have to repeat them!

Not really. Although the http://www.imperial-library.info/pge3/skyrim.shtml does contain some interesting tidbits about a warrior witch's caravan taking control of some previously anarchistic pieces of land. Sounds yummy for sequel bait. Also, some fights with the Redoran, but nobody cares about that because Redoran are losers. :P

Fine, destroy, whatever. I mean, considering he's the abstract concept of Destruction incarnate, blowing everything to smithereens would have been his conquest anyway. Just look at his own realm.

And let's not forget that the act of resurrecting Skar pretty much destroys half the city, leaving the other half between a giant crab and a siege crawler.

Crab would win, the crawler can't really move. Exept the city was destroyed by the fighting, (mass magic and such), not the crab/crawler.

I think you missed the point of Lady Nerevar's MK-quote invocation entirely, my friend. Hint: Involves sarcasm/irony.

I got a medical diagnosis to justify overlooking sarcasm. And my point is still valid regarding Redoran. :P

ya know, why would Daedra need a siege crawler for Ald Ruhn? the city walls have huge holes in it in several places and no city gates....

only city i seen in Morrowind with actual walls and citygate is Mournhold, so it sounds pretty weird that Dagon deemed Ald Ruhn bad ass enough to get pwned by a siege crawler.
