| {{abilities:berserker.png?nolink}} A berserker must make a [[morale]] check every time they take damage, or become berserk. | {{abilities:berserker.png?nolink}} Whenever a berserker takes damage, they roll an openended 3d6. If the result is less than their [[morale]], they become berserk. |

| {{abilities:gone_berserk.png?nolink}} A unit that has gone berserk will appear to gain a red pulsing glow. It will not cast spells or follow orders: it will instead run forward and attack the nearest enemy. It will not retreat, not even due to the turn timer, and its morale is set to 99. The berserk state is cancelled if its [[fatigue]] reaches 100, though this does not prevent a unit berserking again once its fatigue falls. A unit that has gone berserk also gains fatigue per round (in a similar mechanism to [[exhaustion]]) equal to the (1 + berserk value)/2, rounded down. | {{abilities:gone_berserk.png?nolink}} A unit that has gone berserk will appear to gain a red pulsing glow.

| | [[Mounted]] units may not berserk, except for the special hero Cu Chulainn of [[eriu-ma|MA Eriu]]. The tag "mountedbeserk", which only Cu Chulainn has, is required for a mounted unit to berserk. However, they're still affected by items which directly apply the "goneberserk" tag such as ??Lycanthropos' Amulet??. |
