Importantly, if "Minotaurs are kind of like elite light infantry troups with good equipment", then you have a benchmark for making up the new base unit - start with the TS, cost to raise, and cost to maintain of elite light infantry troups, and adjust as you think necessary.

So, for example, you say "Minotaurs don't actually cost to maintain because of their good equipment - it's not like the horns and tough skin need armorers!" So you ignore the +50% for good equipment, or cut it down to +25% for having to feed them (they're big and hungry?)

Et voilla, you get

Minotaurs: TS 5, Class Rec, WT 1 Mob foot, 140k raise, 13.2k maintain, TL 1 (Impetuous)
