On the Maurice Forum on the Sam web page there are the following National Advantages proposed by Greg Savinos:
Maurice Historical National Advantages (as proposed by Greg Savvinos, chief Australian playtester).
Early 18th century conflicts:
Maritime Powers ( Anglo-Dutch) : Lethal Volleys, Steady Lads, Great Captain, (if Marlborough is commanding).
Imperial (Austrian): Steady Lads, Great Captain, (if Eugene is commanding).
French: a la Baionette, Maison du Roi in The Low Countries, Great Captain, (if Villars in the WSS or Luxembourg in the 9Yr war).
Bavarian: a la Baionette, Steady Lads.
Spanish: No special rules
Swedish: a la Baionette, Steady Lads, Cavaliers, Clerics, Maison du Roi, Great Captain, (if Charles XII is in command).
Danish: Lethal Volleys
Prussian: Steady Lads, Lethal Volleys.
Saxon/ Polish: Feudal if the army includes Poles.
Russian 1695-1702: Feudal, At least half the regular units must be conscript.
Russian 1703-1707: Maison du Roi, Feudal
Russian 1708-1724: Steady Lads, Maison du Roi
Ottomans: Feudal, Skirmisher, En Masse. No more than four regular Cavalry. At least 3 regular infantry must be conscript.
(The Kapikulu troops; that is, the paid regulars, seem to be a mixed bag. The Janissaries were particularly patchy. They seem to deteriorate in quality in the second half of the eighteenth century as more and more men are enrolled in to the Janissary corps simply for the perks and the pay rather than the service. When they were mobilised in Istanbul against the Russians in 1774 20,000 mustered, but less than 3000 were left with the ortas by the time they got to Edrine, which was still a very long way from the front. Most Janissary units from this period would have to be conscript with some trained.
However in the 1736-39 war against the Austria the Janissaries showed themselves to be capable of both defensive and offensive action with effective deployment of firepower. The army had recently undergone some reforms in improving army administration and training, though mainly on traditional lines though with some input by western renegades such as Bonneval. To me that sounds like trained regulars. Special assault units of Janissaries, the Serden Gecti, were more or less equivalent to grenadiers and probably deserve elite status, though there is usually only one unit of such troops. I would be disinclined to treat the formal guard infantry such as the Bostanci as anything other than ordinary Janissaries.
In the earlier wars of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, the Janissaries generally fought bravely but kept getting beaten. A mixture of trained and conscript units might reflect that.
The Kapikulu cavalry never seem to have had the kind of impact on battles as say Imperial Kurrasiers did. They were definitely battle cavalry, more than one Grand Vizier died leading a charge of the Guard cavalry, but they didn't seem particularly effective. My instinct is that trained regulars would cover them for the whole period of the rules.
The Provincial troops are even more variable. Most would be a mixture of irregular and regular infantry and cavalry units. In the early eighteenth century the Provincial forces would make up between one quarter and half the infantry and up to 100% of the cavalry. As the eighteenth century wore on Provincial forces seemed to make up a greater proportion of the army and by the Russo Turkish war of the 1770s the bulk of the army was made up of provincial forces. Some were reasonably well trained and equipped, others less so. Bosnia seemed to have particularly effective forces.)
