I've been playing Master of Magic since its release and I've always wondered this: what unit wins in a fair fight - Golem or Minotaurs?

By "fair" fight I mean no magic, no help, and same XP level.

Both units have the same attack (12), but Golem has more armor (8 vs 4) and hit points (20 vs 12), while the Minotaurs unit is composed by two figures and it has the "Large Shield" skill.

With no multiplayer modes in the game, it's hard to test this and, to be frank, most of the time I've played other races (dark elves), plus both dwarves and beastmen are somewhat uncommon.

Hopefully, someone with more experience in those races or more knowledge in MoM combat mechanics can answer.
