The famous ‘wings’ were developed to increase the fear caused by their charge; the sight of galloping horsemen with 20 foot-long lances and massive wings was a sight designed to provoke terror in even the most doughty footsoldier. On the battlefield, groups of hussars would fight together as units, known as kopie. The Winged Hussars flourished during the 1600s, winning dramatic battles against Poland’s many foes.

The Janissary Corps was founded in 1383 by Sultan Murad I to provide him with well-disciplined and loyal troops for his expansionist campaigns. They were recruited from Christian vassal states of the Ottoman Empire in Europe by the ‘devsirme’ system of taking young boys aged 6-14 years and converting them to Islam. These children were indoctrinated and raised in an environment of harsh discipline and training, ideal for the creation of a fighting force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Corps was divided into ‘Ortas’, the equivalent of a battalion, and at the height of the Janissaries’ powers in the late 1500’s there were 196 ortas. These were divided between frontier troops (Cemaat), Sultan’s Household and Bodyguard formations (Beyliks), provincial reserves (Sekbans) and cadet troops (Ajemi). Each Orta was led by a Cobaci or ‘Soup Maker’, a title that indicated humility before the Sultan, and an Asci Usta (Master Cook). Culinary traditions played an important role throughout the Janissary Corps as successful leaders should be able to provide for their men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJanissaries discipline and impressive war record notwithstanding, they were also at the forefront of many military advances. They wore uniforms and distinctive headgear at a time when army uniforms were practically unheard of. They were the first military units to march to music, and also the first to widely use firearms. The fact they were salaried fighters and lived in organised barracks was also unusual from a western standpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe social status of the Janissary Corps was also noteworthy; being neither free men nor ordinary slaves they created their own social class. The Agha, head of the Corps, was one of the most powerful men in the Ottoman Empire, and over the years the Janissaries came to fill important government roles and trades in society. This increase in power was to prove their downfall as they effectively became kingmakers, killing Sultans who they did not approve of and becoming a corrupt parody of their earlier glories and a law unto themselves. The end for the Janissary Corps came in 1826, when Sultan Mahmud II initiated the ‘Auspicious Incident’ which saw the execution of thousands of Janissaries and the disbandment of the Corps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis boxed set provides 24 metal miniatures that can represent a Janissary Orta, 12 miniatures with firearms and 12 with melee weapons, that highlight the both the uniformity and diversity of the Janissary formations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 metal Janissaries armed with sword and shield (includes a command group of officer, standard bearer, drummer and sergeant).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 metal Janissaries armed with arquebus, led by an officer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic bases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiniature sculpted by Ronnie Shilton.

They were distinguished by wearing chainmail armour throughout the entirety of the Pike \u0026amp; Shotte era, which gave them the appearance of an earlier time. Despite their slightly antique appearance, they were very effective troops, using their speed to attack the flanks of their opponents; their armour and hand weapons gave them an advantage in close combat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften they would support the Winged Hussars’ charge, exploiting the gaps the hussars had made and pursuing fleeing troops. The Polish army could be brutally effective, with skilled hajduks providing covering fire while the Winged Hussars devastated enemy formations with their charges, followed by pancerni cavalry quickly exploiting any gaps and harrying routing enemy formations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 multi-part metal Pancerni heavy cavalry (includes a command group of officer, standard bearer, and musician).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlag leaflet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic bases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiniature sculpted by Wojtek Flis.

In addition to the iconic Winged Hussars, some of the Polish infantry also had their origins in Hungary and the Balkans. These infantry were known as hajduks, sharing the same name as irregular fighters in Hungary. Unlike the Hungarians however, the Polish hajduks formed the core of the Polish infantry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe role of the hajduks in the Polish army was to support the cavalry by providing fire as the mounted troops prepared to charge. They were versatile soldiers armed with arquebuses and short swords for close quarters fighting should the enemy succeed in closing on them. This combination made them especially effective infantry in the late 1500s and early 1600s. However, the development of muskets made the arquebus-armed hajduks obsolete, and by the late 1600s, they had been replaced by Western-style musket troops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 metal Hadjuk infantry (includes a command group of officer, standard bearer, and musician).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlag leaflet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic bases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiniature sculpted by Wojtek Flis.
