Once a proud and powerfull race, the Centaurs are no longer the lords of the wild. Their numbers and spirit have been decimated by the continuous expansion of the men, so this whorty warriors have no other choice than to sell their strength has mercenaries for diferent nations.

The legend said that the ancesters of this centaurs where expelled from Lacedemonia, when their leader lost a bet against one of the Agiad Kings of Sparta. After arriving the forest near to the city of Thebes, they try to copy the hoplites techniques with little success. However they adapt the hoplite panoplia to their own advantage, using the heavy armors that were already abandon by the humans.

Unlike their human counterparts, the Hypapist Centaurs are specially good against archers. Their heavy bronze curias protect them from most projectiles, and their speed allow them to dodge the rest. When facing the oponents, Hypapist Centaurs rely on two short doble edge swords to do the job quickly.
