If you're playing on PC, there are likely to be mods that allow this. We are Reddit's primary hub for all things modding, from troubleshooting for beginners to creation of mods by experts. To do that I was using models and textures imported directly from Skyrim and for that, ModDB shut down my page. For example if you have not been named dragonborn yet, you are just a basic foot soldier and followe orders. Another civil war mod I came across was the immersive units civil war mod that gives all troops better weapons and gear for the battles and patrols I knew about the battles in the Immersive Civil War mods and I know they're in locked locations.
