Actually i just remember something, if you finish the companions questline the Skyforge can make Nord Hero weapons/armor they are on par with Daedra gear, Eorlund can make the Stormcloaks the best equipped army in all of Tamriel. Yes it would take time to make enough for all Stormcloaks, likely officer will get their gear first, but in the long run Stormcloaks will be better equiped than the AD

I don't recall Nord Hero gear being on par with Daedra gear, but I've never used it. Gonna take a look for myself but if you're right (which you probably are) than that is definitely a good point.
