JAN-25 – Janissaries

The colourful appearance of the Janissaries can sometimes overshadow their genuine military importance.

JAN-25 represents soldiers belonging to a corps that survived for centuries and participated in many of the campaigns that shaped Ottoman history.

During the early-modern period, the battlefield was undergoing profound change. Gunpowder weapons became increasingly effective, artillery transformed siege warfare and infantry armed with firearms grew in importance.

Janissaries were part of this evolving military environment. Displaying JAN-25 beside the armoured Zihril Nefer provides a particularly effective visual representation of old and new battlefield technologies existing together.

Within a larger formation, the set can be used to extend the main line or create a second rank behind troops already engaged.

Available from The Military Workshop – another finely detailed John Jenkins Designs Janissary set bringing the military world of the Ottoman Empire into miniature.
