Agreed. The likely reason for the White-Gold Concordat in the first place (from the Dominion side) was to give them a chance to repopulate and exert soft power over the Empire. It makes perfect sense given how they fared in Hammerfell; they simply lacked the manpower to reinforce and continue the invasion. If ES6 does indeed happen in Hammerfell, it could easily feature a second invasion by the Dominion... which hopefully gets pushed back and perhaps even reversed through the events of the main story.The Aldmeri Dominion's main concerns are to do with mainland Tamriel
While I think the Sload and Maormer had relatively recent defeats or stuff that made it so that even a few centuries or millennia of rebuilding and planning'd be needed for another plan, they could potentially do something to the Dominion
Which is kinda something sorta ironic, the Altmer are themselves from what I can tell, also still rebuilding and recuperating numbers which is why they use Soft Power and spy networks rather than an actual army
Birthrates and Rate of Maturity are problems for them
We are likely to see at least two major DLC, though, given earlier games. I could see something like this:
Base game: Second Aldmeri Dominion invasion of Hammerfell, Hammerfell allies with Skyrim to drive the Thalmor out;
DLC #1: The war is taken to the Summerset Isles, culminating in a final battle at the capital of Alinor against some magically-empowered demi-god-type character;
DLC #2: A plague, previously thought to be under control, starts spreading throughout Hammerfell, either Peryite or Sload responsible, and the player has to track down and eliminate the entity responsible, in the process gaining some sort of great power or "ascending" into another form (a la the Shivering Isles DLC for Oblivion).
There is also a distinct possibility the Psijics will be getting involved at some point; perhaps the Thalmor are ultimately controlled by this or that ancient enemy of the Psijics?
