Not sure if this has been mentioned before. Is anyone going to create a Minotaur quest pack to utilize these magnificent beasts?
Perhaps some quests could incorporate the villagers prison or herd shrine?

Could you show a minotaur on a Heroquest Game Board please? I'd like to know how that looks.

With the amount of questbook-like story pages Thantos has put on the kickstarter page, I'd be surprised if he didn't have at least a rough outline of the story.

Thantos, are you or someone you're working with putting together a quest pack? If not, maybe you'd like to outsource it to one of the accomplished people on the Inn? I myself was just planning on substituting the ogres in AtOH with Minotaurs, since I don't have any ogre minis besides the one that came with BattleMasters.

Is there any minotaur precedent in HeroQuest? Do people think they'd be roughly equivalent to the ogres in stats?

The villagers prison reminds me of the Warcraft movie.

It would be pretty awesome :D Nothing planned at the moment but it is certainly leading that way :P
Also teamed up with heroic maps, they made a Minotaur map for us. Ready for printing ($2.50 with the link on the KS page)

Would certainly make good Ogre proxies, although these are bigger!

I didnt see the Warcraft movie, Jdean, it any good?

Don Kueker concept art for the unreleased Wizard Quest Pack featured a Minotaur with an axe and sword.

[Broken link. Try this and scroll down nine pics to the Minotaur. -edit]

I got my Minotaur Horde box and am overjoyed. Such beautiful, high-quality sculpts. Copied from the kickstarter comments: "I'm assembling the general. Beautiful piece. The only good place to get a grip on his lower half to attach it to the torso is... more anatomically correct than I would have expected.

I guess my question is... why sculpt testicles but not the rest? XD"
