Which Heavy Infantry unit is the "best"
Re: Which Heavy Infantry unit is the "best"
Well firstly, I think that a distinction should be made between musketeers and Heavy Infantry, as they fulfil similar, yet very different roles. For best musketeer, I think that objectively it is the Sepoy and I would agree. For heavy infantry, I would say yamabushi because they have excellent break stats and are very useful, as well as mesh very well with Japan's composition in nearly every age.

However, it's not very relevant, because for example russian musket do bad vs huss and russian units are all OP, but with a bad eco.
I guess the only other factor apart from pure combat stats of units that is taken into consideration is pop efficiency, which makes Ruskets absolutely the weakest musketeer-type unit in the game.

It depends on the upgrades, jans are way better than regular musketeers if upgrades aren't considered.

This one is actually reaaally good, only melee inf thats actually good. Otherwise Im torn between jan and sepoy.
Re: Which Heavy Infantry unit is the "best"
No man they're great within the scope of the ottoman arsenal. Ashis suck though.
Re: Which Heavy Infantry unit is the "best"
Jans damage is just too low. Ashi are bit too pricy atm because they got nerfed and part of the cost is always related to the speed. After few ups they are by far the better musk.
Re: Which Heavy Infantry unit is the "best"
Ashi are probably the best musketeer with japan consulate or ashi attack, but before then I think they are so-so.

Janissaries function as meatshield. Pro-tip: when you're facing Ottomans, with anything other than repelling volley skirms, Abuses should STILL be prioritized over Janissaries, simply because abuses deal lots of damage and have low HP, while Janissaries have low damage and lots of HP. They're distraction units and raiding units, banking off their high HP.
Re: Which Heavy Infantry unit is the "best"
Janissary are INSANE units.
It's Ottoman's bad eco that makes some players think they're not strong.
Guess what will happen if brit/france have janissary in rax instead of musketeer?
