If you can get 5 or so Behemoths to your front line, they'll quite happily crush your opponent's satyrs and minotaurs to goo. They even have somewhat decent magic resist and good hp, so they're hard to Banish.
Zurai is correct that Behemoths will happily trample and crush Pangaea units in great numbers, and that they will not rout, but Behemoths are NOT mindless. This distinction is important when facing, say, R'lyeh: Behemoths AREN'T mindless and CAN be bLasted. Also, should your commander bite it, the Behemoths, not being mindless, will retreat, rather than dissolve.
