The anti gunpowder bonus helps to finish gunpowder units, but this makes them not invincible to gunpowder. If the condottieri die before they can reach their targets, they are useless. So you need sufficient condottieri to match gunpowder.

If you are fighting against Conquistadors, Janisaries or Organ guns, they will be little different from woad raiders. They have a usefull anti-infantry defense which gives them some protection against hand cannoneers, slingers and plumed archers. They fare better against plumed archers or slingers cause they are more dependant on their bonusses.

I mainly think as the Condottiero to be a fast champion which has little training time and does not need to be upgraded from the militia line.
