Maybe even a little Falmer too.

Saw this a few weeks ago, looks like it's true.
If it is, it's in Morrowind around black light.

It looks kinda like the Karstaag giant from Bloodmoon

That's what I was thinking.

Unless the Dawnguard Leader Guy outshines Vampire Boss Dude's awesomeness I'm going with the vamps. Atleast the first play.

I will probably do one, reload, then do the other, then pick whichever I liked more.

Here's what it looks like ;

-You're going to have to choose between being with or against the Dawnguard.
-The Vampires worship Molag Bal and the Dawnguard will presumably worship Meridia.
-There will be a mission involving Snow Elves and there will be a chance to meet the/a Snow Prince (this may involve retrieving the Elder Scrolls.)
-You may have to go to another province (Morrowind/Solstheim presumably).

That's all I can really tell right now minus the inclusion of a new horse.

On another note I would love to see if a group of Falmer used the Elder Scrolls to revive the Snow Prince and/or change them back to 'Snow Elves'.

After watching the trailer a few (dozen) times, here's some things I noticed:

*New armor types - one looks like some kind of leather but with metal pauldrons (@ 0:47); another looks like some kind of brigandine armor (0:49).
*New weapons - crossbows (obviously); some kind of horn or chitin bow (0:51)
*Karstaag/Frost Giant? (0:55)
*Elder Scroll (1:06) shows a map of the Reach & Haafingar, with Markarth and Solitude marked in red (possible Molag Bal/Namira vs. Meridia involvement?)

The chance are they will probably be related to the faction you choose ie 'Dawnguard armor'.
*Elder Scroll (1:06) shows a map of the Reach & Haafingar, with Markarth and Solitude marked in red (possible Molag Bal/Namira vs. Meridia involvement?)
Well you see a Molag Bal alter so that's a given. Also if you look again, Whiterun is swallowed up by what you could easily mistake for a 'Bloodmoon' so maybe it's a Molag Bal + Hircine alliance in an attempt to make the whole of Tamriel 'darker'.


Also swimming Dragon at 1:04 lol.

That bow looks like it might be chitin, which would be another confirmation of something in Blacklight.

And I'd say the 0:58 monster looks like a frost giant, given that a) it's using a giant's club and b)it strongly resembles Karstaag, who, as previously discussed, is a frost giant.

Also, remember that vampires were actually created by Molag Bal, so there's a strong chance he'll be involved.

Ah, it's been a while since I did MB's quest. I thought that altar looked familiar.

The only crossbows seen in that video seem to be steel, which is interesting, but I suspect (and hope) we'll get the full range, from iron to Daedric.

Also, you can see from 0:58 to about 1:01 are a bow, an axe, and some sort of quilted red armor that seem to be new.

Files in the patches show there are Dwemer crossbows also.

I'm surprised the blue flaming horse haven't been mentioned once in this thread.

It's like Ponyta's evil twin.
