User Commentary
The Centaur Captain is considered to be the best level 1 unit regarding raw stats. 6 attack is tied with the Halberdier, Skeleton Warrior, and Horn of the Abyss's Oceanid for the highest of all the level 1 units. 3 defence is about average, but having 10 health (the highest among the level 1 troops only matched by the Pikeman and Halberdier) compensates for that making it rather bulky for a level 1 unit. 2-3 damage is tied with the Halberdier, Gnoll Marauder, and Horn of the Abyss's Halfling Grenadier for the highest damage. Lastly 8 speed is the second highest of all level 1 units, only behind the Sprite's speed rating of 9. While two hex units can be a liability later on, the Centaurs' bulkiness makes them excellent blocker units in the early game and during siege defense. Consider combining Centaurs with Wood Elves/Grand Elves for clearing out wandering creatures in your starting area.
