Hi all

Where can I find Napoleonic Ottoman Flags in 28mm? More specifically, I would need some for my Nizam-i-Djedid infantry, and maybe for the Janissaries.

Thanks and cheers,
Peter

Although these are designed for an earlier period, Cotton Jim's Flags might work for you: link

as I recall the Ottoman National flag did not change for the whole century – crescent & star on a red background. You can use Ottoman Egyptian flags from the 1880's Sudan for the Napoleonic period

there was one standard bearer (Alemdar) per company but I can see no description of what the standards were like.

Janissary standards contained the following symbols depending on the Orta:
