What are your opinions of who to side with in the Anvil of the Voil - Branka or Caridin? Which is the best one?
Thanks.

I don't think there is an ultimate "best choice", it's all down to your own morales as to how you want to play the game.

The only difference with these sort of decisions is perhaps what item drops you get from killing certain NPC's.
Don't think you know all the answers.

I found siding with Caridin the morally right choice. A golem army is nice, but Branka has completely thrown overboard all ethics in pursuit of her obsession. Oghren will be sad but will understand.

I'm going to side with Branka on my next playthrough as evil.
You now bear the awesome responsibility of the Metal "Unit". Gussets of wind, seams like reality, pockets of resistance, the seat of power, and legs as flared as your temper. Polish it well; the onus is now on you.

SPOILER!!!! Highlight to read
Spoiler
Want to Keep Shale/Shayle? Then you MUST side with Carridan if you bring HER to the Anvil. If you side with Branka, She WILL desert and attack you. If you DON'T bring her, LIE to her, so that her quest is opened.

Other than that, the biggest difference is: Side with Carridan, get Dwarf units, decent enough Melee, I suppose (Great attack, low defense), and end the slavery. Side With Branka, Get Golems (Best Melee Units in the game, but continue the slavery.
OK, I'll stop the spoiler now.
