Here it is, after much discussion, a TL about this is finally here.
Part I
Battle of Torvioll
In the summer of 1444, Skanderberg, and his small army of 10 000 men faced off against 40 000 Turks under the direct command of Ali Pasha. Thorough scouting and reconnaissance along with captured war plans reveal to the Turks the positions of the cavalry to their rear. A large force Janissaries and Light Cavalry scour the Cavalry into open ground and slaughter it. The rest of the army turns to faces Skanderbeg’s main force. In the ensuing battle, the Ottomans win a decisive victory, capturing Skanderberg and the survivors of his army. Skanderberg is executed, along with his army, effectively ending large scale Albanian resistance. Guerilla bands take to the coastal areas under the command of Dukagjini, but the Venetians along with the Ottomans successfully defeat them. The survivors take to the mountains, only to emerge and raid the occasional caravan.
Murad was now free to advance and meet the Crusaders at the Battle of Varna, the successful victory granted the Ottomans uncontested rule until Hungary.
Part II
Seige of Constantinople
(OOC: Seige goes much as OTL)
The Ottomans under Mehmet the Conqueror advance on Constantinople with 80 000 soldiers, and the Great Turkish Bombards to lay seige to Constantinople. The paltry defenders of the great city stand a little chance against the massed foes. Though the fight valiantly, they are simply overwhelmed, when the walls are breached and the thousands of Turks move in to pillage the city. For several days looting and sacking of the city takes place, thousands are killed, and the Turks sustain heavy losses. But Mehmet the Conqueror orders the Azaan read from the Hagia Sophia, and the first Jamaat is held in the city. After several months, the city is repopulated with Turks, and the capital is moved to Konstantinnye.
Mehmet, calling himself the Ceaser of Romans, now sets his sight on the First Rome...
