So, now that we know Imperials are playable (at least) by buying the Collector's Edition, which alliance do you think your first Imperial fits in? Do you think Imperials will balance the alliances more? In your opinion, is there one alliance that stands out as more appealing lore-wise for the Imperials in that specific Era?

All races can join all alliances if the pre-order text is correct.

Preorder bonus + Explorer's pack:

Your characters can join any of the alliances, no matter which race you choose.

screw imp, i am making an orc aldmeri

Ebonheart Pact.

i really feel like alliances lost all meaning today. this will be in cash shop. you can pre-order and play anyone anywhere or you can pay extra for it later

As I already explained on TF, I′m going to make an Imperial exclusively guild in AD, no elven scum allowed (kitties too!). And the day I become The Emperor, I am going to hold appropriate speech on Superior (and inferior) races to my beloved AD masses. For the Empire!

Idk, I have a bad feeling Ebonheart is going to be even more stacked than it already is....

I would like to vote for "I will not play an Imperial anyway "

This one actually makes a bit of sense.

I don't want to play as an Imperial, I hate the Imperials. I have spent the last few years turning over every rock I can find so I can crush the few remaining Imperials that are hiding there under the heel of my boot.

That being said, I want to be able to pick up the fight five days early but am also interested in the center piece for my shrine to Molag Bal and of course who wouldn't want to get a couple of treasure maps.

It's quite a pickle I have myself in here...

Thoughts/Opinions?

Thank the Gods! I can now play my favorite race!

Now... for which alliance? That is a good question. I now must create a backstory for the character and let them tell me which to join.

Can anyone find me a good reason for playing an Argonian in the Daggerfall Covenant?

Cause i want to do that but need some lore behind it :>

Wait, you have to buy the collectors edition to get imperial... why does this game have a sub if you still have to pay for everything separately!

None, Play as a Khajiit or as an Argonian Not sure what fraction yet...

+1

I wish there was a way to "give" my Imperial to someone else. Because I don't plan on playing one (I never play humans in MMOs).

Not gonna play Imperial.

Probably Aldmeri Dominion; I will have a Nord with Ebonheart Pact and an Orc with the Daggerfall Covenant.

I'm a brute

Wont be playing an imperial, never liked them anyways. Khajiit for life.
