Common units:
Minotaur Warriors:
Minotaur Warriors are strong, hardy and surprisingly well-disciplined. They wield a large variety of weapons: Sickle swords, throwing axes, round wooden shields, maces, clubs, spears and pikes of various lengths.
Minotaur Raiders:
Minotaur Raiders live by a very simple philosophy: Steal everything that isn't nailed down, burn everything that is. Carrying single-handed broadswords, and burning torches, Raiders are very effective against most types of fortifications, and are particulary good at destroying settlements. They are somewhat difficult to control, so having a Cheiftain present is always a good idea if you don't everything burning to the ground.
Special units
Minotaur Berserkers:
Berserkers specialise in working themselves into an insane battle rage. Totally uncontrollable until they eventually calm down, they attack targets at random, screaming and yelling, hacking and slashing their way through large groups of soldiers with their two-handed axes and great-swords. Whilst they are certainly not immortal, they can definitely take a beating, shrugging off injuries that would incapacitate others.
Heroes
Minotaur Chieftains:
Tough, mean, strong, fast and tactically minded, A Minotaur Chieftain commands both fear and respect from those who serve under them. Easily recognisable by the chain-mail armour and iron helms they wear, they are the Minotaurs who keep other Minotaurs in line. Most Chieftans dual-wield two wepons in battle, usually swords. This is not just a practical choice, but also a display of power and wealth: Not everyone can afford to own two weapons.
