"The Janissaries were regarded as some of the most fearsome warriors of the Ottomans. Janissaries trained under strict discipline with hard labour and in practically monastic conditions in acemi oğlan ("rookie" or "cadet") schools" and were essentially a muslim version of Templars, but with guns.

They were also expected to convert to Islam, which meant that although they were born white christains, they lost the conditions that allowed them to be a part of a privelaged class that allows them to always win fictional battles. All did, as Christians were not allowed to bear arms in the Ottoman Empire until the 19th century.

While the Ottomans had greater mobility, the Landsknechts had better range, experience, training, and far better armor, and were white christians, which brought them victory.

While the Ottomans had armor,better training and were superior marksmans,they were outclassed by white christian Pirates superior technology and melee weapons combat.

The Redcoat won because of his superior musket over the arquebus, were white christians, and strict military training.
