Hide in Plain sight Starting at 10th level, you can spend 1 minute creating camouflage for yourself. You must have access to fresh mud, dirt, plants, soot, and other naturally occurring materials with which to create your camouflage.

Commander[edit]
Commanders on the battlefield are a wonder to behold. Leading their troops to victory, they are tactical geniuses and experts at supporting their troops. The sight of a Commander on the battlefield both raises allies’ spirits and demoralizes your enemies.
Commander's Influence Starting at 3rd level, you learn the Morale, and Demoralize features.
Morale: As an action, you can boost your allies Morale. Choose a number of friendly creatures who can either see or hear you up to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). The creatures you choose gain a +1 bonus to their attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws. The bonus provided by morale lasts for 1 minute or until you use this feature again, whichever comes first. Your allies lose this bonus if you cannot see them, or they cannot see or hear you, or you become incapacitated. You can use this feature twice, regaining any expended uses when you finish a long rest. The bonus to attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws this feature provides increases by 1 at 7th level (+2), and again at 13th level (+3).
Demoralize: As an action, you can Demoralize the oppositions resolve. You choose a number of hostile creatures that you can see, and can see or hear you, up to your Charisma modifier (with a minimum of 1). Those creatures must make a Charisma saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma Modifier). On a failed save, the creatures have a -1 penalty to attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws. This effect lasts for 1 minute or until you use this feature again, whichever comes first. A creature automatically succeeds on the saving throw if it's immune to being frightened. On a successful save, a creature becomes immune to the effects of Demoralize. The hostile creatures lose this penalty if you cannot see them, or they cannot see or hear you, or you become incapacitated. You can use this feature twice, regaining any expended uses when you finish a long rest. This penalty increases to a -2 penalty at 7th level, and to a -3 penalty at 13th level.

(The DM may also decide if the soldiers can be equipped with different items, EX:Weapons, Armor, Magic Items, etc.).
