Back in the time of the Old Nords, it was actually quite common for users of the Thu'um to help out in battles and wars. The real problem was - they were too fragile. A great example would be when the DragonBorn is participating in the quest, "Siege on the Dragon Cult' where a journal details a user of the Thu'um being brought in to take down their walls, only to get an arrow through his throat shortly after.
