If you like fantasy worldbuilding with some level of realism, what be good options for arming centaurs? There are tons of possibilities of course, but here are my thoughts on what might be particularly practical, in an optimized low-risk, high-reward sort of way.
Also a nice opportunity to reference the Heroes of Might and Magic series, which has some of my favorite games. And some really cool artwork.
