How can I betray Ulfric after beating the Stormcloak storyline? [duplicate]

My original plan was to join the Stormcloaks and restore Talos worship, but when I would go to kill Tullius, I would kill Ulfric instead, but I can't. Now I'm stuck with a power hungry leader. How do I betray Ulfric?

Best Answer

You've missed your opportunity.

If you want to "betray" one side or the other, the game gives you the opportunity to start the Jagged Crown quest for one side but ultimately give the crown to the other. Unmodded and/or without cheating, you can only switch sides until the final stages of the Jagged Crown quest, at which point your choice is locked in.

If you want to cheat, you can use the setessential command to clear Ulfric's essential flag and kill him (setessential 0001414D 0 I believe). This will not change anything about the rest of the world and how it sees that you've completed the civil war quest for the Imperials.

Windhelm - Jarl Ulfric gets replaced by Brun-Wulf Free Winter - This is also somewhat neutral. I guess the biggest winners in this case would be the Dark Elfs and Argonians in Windhelm. Depends on how you look at it, it's positive to neutral, perhaps +1 Imperials to 0 for either side.
