History
The black sheep of the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces, the Janissaries spent most of their time in their base camps after the Xin Sheng Campaign. The Strategios doesn't really understand how to employ them effectively, which has led to many senior CCAF officers to call for the units' disbandment. Given the personal interest of Duchess Candace Liao, that action isn't likely.[2]
