I prefer dragonplate armour and a daedric battleaxe, all improved to legendary and enchanted

On the subject of the civil war though, I would more readily join the Imperial Legion. Looking at the bigger picture, it would help the Empire more, and therefore be more detrimental to the Aldmeri Dominion. Also, I suppose I was shown the light considerably by some of the people in Solitude. Especially the court wizard:

"The Dominion is a sleeping beast that Skyrim can not slay alone. And worshiped or not, Talos the god was once Tiber Septim the man, and this is his Empire."

That would apply if the empire was fighting the Thalmor (in which case, Skyrim would have no reason to go to war against them), but not when ruled by them. After all, it's said the same about the actual Empire right up until the Legate gets killed (I let Ulfric Stormcloak do it, for being awesome ).
