The Centaur Captain is considered to be the best level 1 unit regarding raw stats. The Centaur Captain has the second highest speed of all level 1 units with a speed rating of 8, right behind the [[Sprite]]'s speed rating of 9. While two hex units are normally a liability later on, the Centaurs' bulkiness makes for excellent blocker units in the early game and during siege defense. Consider combining Centaurs with [[Wood Elf|Wood Elves/Grand Elves]] for clearing out wandering creatures in your starting area.
