The dialogue actually makes you a commanding officer etc.Īlso - if you wanted to continue mercenary work for a long time - you would run into an issue where a lot of the forts you conquer no longer become available as radiant quests because you conquer them for one or the other faction. The problem is that the Civil War questline doesn't grant you the ability to work as a random mercenary. You could probably make the argument for either one.
