| {{abilities:berserker.png?nolink}} A berserker must fail a [[morale]] check vs 12 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??. | |
