Neutrality isn’t an option; the player will have to make a decision on whether the Imperials or Stormcloaks rule Skyrim if they wish to engage in the questline, meaning that players who don’t agree with either side will find themselves putting the kingdom’s future in the hands of the lesser of two evils.

Which gives more loot-Imperials or Stormcloaks?
re: Imperials or Stormcloaks: which gives more reward? Both sides are pretty much identical in regards to loot, save for the Imperial Legate armor and Stormcloak General set (both sets can be looted off corpses anyway during the battles.) Plus it depends on whether you’d like Tullius or Ulfric’s gear at the end of the quest line.
