Jannisary In-game Unit

[Badnorth]

Unit description: The Janissaries were the personal bodyguard to the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, a group of élite warriors active for over 500 years. Many of these fearsome soldiers were originally Christians, who had converted to Islam (they were often forced) a er being taken as slaves. They were, however, richly rewarded for their services financially and in terms of social standing. As a result many became fanatically devoted to the Sultan, their captor and master. Turkish yatagan swords were the signature weapon of the Janissaries, almost a symbol of the corps. Janissaries who guarded the palace (Zülüflü Baltacılar) carried long-shafted axes and halberds. By the early 16th century, the Janissaries were equipped with and were skilled with muskets.

[Badnorth]

I didn't notice they were on map editor..
Maybe as a usable unit?

[Squirrel5555]

Yes, both janissaries and janissary rifleman. Though I think they are map editor only.

[Badnorth]

[L4cus]

mmh, a 6 turns unit would be too much for jenisaries
i know they were elite troops but not that much!

i dont think all jenisaries were bodyguards...
they were thousands...and fought against spanish tercios hand to hand, as well as european mercenaries
or u mean mercenaries should be balanced as 6 turns units?

I meant housecarl is a household bodyguard with a 6 turn cost so janisary could have ir tpp.
