For Challenge # 060

I'm not sure the templating for the ability is quite right.

From the start I felt this should be red/green because centaurs are usually green in a stern-firm-honorable narnia way, but this one looks like more like a traditional very wild angry greek myth centaur, almost devilish. Though it could work as pure red (even though red gets fewer centaurs) or as pure green (playing up the boldness rather than the recklessness).

Originally he looked like he was charging alone, and I thought of several simple reckless centaur cards, mainly being 2G or 1RG and 3/3 or 3/1 with firebreathing and some combination of trample, haste, first strike, etc.

But I decided he could equally well be leading a horde which led to this.

Absolutely brutal. I'd love to believe this is fair, since it seems fun, but I'm pretty sure the casting cost is off. That said, he seems like fun.
