This volume covers the uniforms, tactics and organization of the Ottoman standing army in the late 18th century and Napoleonic wars. The Ottoman’s standing army was long established. The sipahi and deli cavalry constituted its main battlefield assault force, alongside paid regular janissary infantry, provincial government musketeer regiments; and the nizam-i-cedid – the new order army. Supported by a force of regular artillery, engineering and transport corps.

Chapters cover uniforms, insignia, and flags. Chapters also cover the standing army’s composition, organization of its infantry, cavalry and artillery. Including its tactics used in the 18th century and Napoleonic period.

This book contains a chapter on the organization, flags, ships, uniforms, tactics and armament of the Ottoman river fleets.

This volume is a continuation of the Partizan Press series for generic wargaming conversion rules, the 2018 Napoleonic Ottoman Army Wargaming Supplement.
