If I slaughter the soldiers in a town, will they respawn ??

unfortunately they do , i had amassed a corpse pile in my house in whiterun. One day I came home to see lots of living guards in my living room all walking outta there. so apparantly some interloper ressed them... so much for making huge corpse piles when they just walk out of there a few days later..

Ill try and take him as a werewolf then !!
Or pay the fine

I killed every guard in Markarth (bizarrly it gave me a "Completed" for the Forsworn mission when I killed the last of them). I lured them all up the tallest steps and shouted them off. Mjoll killed the stragglers.

They respawned the instant I left and came back. I was sad. :sadvaultboy:

I don't know why the guards have it in for me there, every time I visit. They attack for no reason, silly svckers. I refuse to submit to their authority.
