    But the FE myrmidons are the exact opposite of what you described. Instead of being numerous like ants they are actually powerful single, lone wolf like units

    Wouldn't doing dark brotherhood and civil war be pointless? kill the emporer then Join his forces?

    I honestly never thought about that in that manner, Mede is a cancer man, we're doing a favor for the empire here. And the only reason he joins the empire is to battle Ulfric

    IMO it would be better if you renamed the abilities to a non-Fire Emblem theme. Some people may not have heard of it (me included) and may not understand what they mean. Im also having a hard time keeping up with the names of the abilities, theres just so many of them. Some are even just one Skyrim skill. Im not really seeing any actual swordplay here. I mean, in general, thats what swordmasters are, right? Dont get me wrong, this look great. But only in theory. I can already see how you play this - just hack and slash, activating QR now and then. You're not giving your enemies a chance to fight back. Exchange blows. But then, thats just how I see swordmasters. Watching them fight makes you think its more like a dance than a swordfight. The build is a bit too much FE, and less Skyrim. Its not integrated to Tamriel well enough. Oh, and, you said you cast a flesh spell if there are still enemies left. How do you keep using QR after that, when you still have the spell on the offhand? do you just unequip it on your favorites, or do you use the torch trick? Also, you did not take the dual flurry perk (or something like that, I even forgot what that perk gives :-D), even though at 50 you are now dual wielding. Do you rely solely on the free stamina trick that you use?

    I dont buy it. Even if you're a console player, there are some art that features swordmaster without it being anime.

    As a big Fire Emblem fan, I have to give this a +1

    Honestly I like anime artwork, and the whole fire emblem franchise uses anime traces. So really, why would I change this if I'm happy with it, and it does not hinder the build's playability?
