Jannisaires for 1400 to 1500

Post by irondog068 »

ARe Old Glory Jannisaires with bow correct for this period? I am set for my 1500+ Jannisaires but I need eairler peroid. Venexia look nice but you can't beat Old Glorys price. Also any idea on Azab archers? Mine are all mounted as Medium foor for the later peroid.

Thanks

I'd say yes. The traditional Jannissary uniform changed very little across the centuries

So Old Glorys are good?
That is the one good thing about the Ottomans. By changing the infantry weapon you can use your army from about 1400 to 1800.

OG jannisarries are some of the best out there.

IMO they are better than Venexia's as I have both....
