Janissary

[COOLguy]

These were Turkish elite infantry, recruited from slaves but very loyal (in modern usage, someone who is called a 'Janissary' is an extremely devoted follower). In the game, I see this as being quick anti-infantry infantry unit: in some ways like a cheaper but weaker chariot.

So some stat ideas are:

cost 2
speed 4
hp 18
attack 6
armor 0/1
convert resistance 100%
small bonuses against most infantry units

I attached below a concept image.

If you would like, please help me to develop the idea (stats,image...)

Well, Jannissaries (spelling) were basically one of the most elite military groups in history, up there with samurai and mamlukes from what I know. They were a small group, and basically acted as the emperors personal bodygaurds and FBI. Eventually, they became so powerful and dangerous to emperial control that they were all killed/disbanded in what almost became an overthrowing of the empire.

P.S. they typically carried guns, seeing that they existed in the late 1300's -1600's, for the most part.

I think a cool unit, but deffinately should be a powerful unit, and not 2 turns to make...

Ok, let's change them to cost more between a Spartan and a Legionnaire. That's a good idea (i think )
Is it Janissary = 1 Jannissaries = more than 1?

That sounds about right. And I think thats how it is spelled, I'm not 100% sure though.

Nice! The turban looks a little bit like a Rebellion helmet in Star Wars Ep. IV Maybe if the white band was diagonal that would help... I think that is my opinion.

Let's do both: one with a gun, and one with a blade (like the ashigaru)

Lol, he does like like a star wars rebel

And I think if he becomes a gun unit, he should be like a much more accurate ashigaru.
