Being the orcish army the one who gather togheter all the races of monstruos humanoid i was thinking about giving them the chance to recruit minotaurs

Minotaurs should be a fast infantry unit armed with a big axe that give them the chance to heavily hit wooden units and buildings

Minotaurs should be recruited in Tcs, Monster caves and Volcanoes

Stats:

Basic Unit

Cost 3
Hp 32
Attack 16
Armor 2 (thick hide)
Pierce Armor 2 (thick hide)
Speed 4
Sight 6
Action 1

Upgrade

Hp 38

Upgrade 2

Hp 42
Attack 20
Armor 4 (more Armored)
Pierce Armor 4 (more Armored)

Bonus damage

For building i would make its bonus a less than Orc Crusher

Orc crusher bonus are:
1000% against towers, walls
2000% against mega buildings
400% against factories

I would make

300% against towers, walls
1000% against mega buildings
100% against factories


Against wooden units i would make 400% bonus

Alternative upgrade images

I really like this idea!

But fix the horns and mabye make them point up?

Sure, this is a minor fix, i can do it in no time

Like these?

I'm posting both images together to make a better comparison

I love the 2nd one, it looks better!

Daniel, do you also like them?

i am a bit confused, isnt it a mythology thing?

In D&D settings minotaurs are a race of monstruos humanoids like orcs and such.
In some settings (like dragonlance) they have real civilizations, while in other, like forgotten realms, they are more savages
They obviously are inspired by the myth of the minotaur but in fantasy settings they are a clichè.

Also in warcrat setting you have minotaurs (callde taurens) that are among the other races of the horde (you can find them in the orc army in warcraft 3 and as a playable race of the horde in world of warcraft)

ok! than it is welcome! i suggest it on the first vote.
