So in OTL the Battle of Sirp Sindigi was fought between a coalition of Serbs and Hungarians, against the rising Ottoman power in Europe.
The Turks won and the flower of the Serbian nobility was killed, to the point where this battle, along with the Battle of Maritsa seven years later, are considered even more decisive and disastrous than the more famous Battle of Kosovo.
By way of different battle dispositions/weather (literally butterfly effect), and some other happy accidents, this could have easily ended differently, in victory for the Europeans. Perhaps this victory could lead to a sequence of events driving the Turks out of Europe, and a strong Serbian nobleman might forge a state as powerful as Dusan the Mighty's, and perhaps even strong enough to take Constantinople off of the Greeks' hands?
