Ottoman’s historic weaknesses have all been removed…

It’s far more than just health. Humbaraci are really the perfect showcase of everything wrong with Ottomans right now. They just straight up outclass Grenadiers by all metrics.

Pros:

  • Health
  • Speed
  • Range
  • Line of Sight
  • Train Time
  • Attack (ranged, hand, and siege)
  • Artillery Multiplier (four times better)

Cons:

  • Cost 10 resources more (weighted slightly more to coin)
  • Area of Effect

Neutral Differences:

  • 30% ranged resist and 20% Siege Resist instead of 50% ranged resist

This would be fine if it was a one off unique unit and Ottomans were lacking in other areas. But no, they have straight up better versions of everything across the board. I really don’t understand how having essentially zero trade offs is justifiable.
