And this depends on hitting first. A mino costs 40, a trog 50. In a straight up fight, I think a equal cost amount of trogs would win.

Also, a mino has attack 8, and a trog def 9. So that gives around 50% chance of hitting. All in all, not that good odds.
Minotaurs are berserkers, troglodytes not. So if the troglodyte tramples the minotaur once, the minotaur gets very very angry (gaining amongst other things +4 to attack and strength, so they will hit the troglodytes easily *and* deal some serious pain). In an equally-valuable-regiments -situation the troglodytes will most likely (despite their high morale) take enough damage to break before all minotaurs are dead (in fact I believe a minotaur regiment should be able to whack even a somewhat larger trogldoyte regiment usually), and at the end of the day it is those who stay on the field who win the battle.
