There are two theorys of the name Berserker. One is the one RTW uses, that they wore a bearskin. (serk = clothing) so bear-clothing.

The other theory is bar-serk (bar in norse languages is the same as none or naked) So it means that they fought with no "serk" or only serk and no armour. Mutch like the naked fanatics in RTW.

My berserkers is a compromise with both theorys, so they both wear bearskin, and no other clothing like the rest of the vikings.So. if they didn't belive in going to combat with any armour, why then bring a shield?

Scion, Skeletor,
Do you see the lancers on Tutankamon's signature? My sources say the guys until the 11th era fought this way. Later they held the lance in their armpit.
Good pictures anyway. I like especially the feet of the axeman. The berserker is a true art picture. Good.
The kabar guy seems to me dark especially his headgear and head. What is that triangle under his belt? Does he wear a skirt?
The picture is relatively small, details are hidden. Are you afraid of some criticism?
True with the lances. Eaven tho the commun thought have been that the frankish cavalery used their lances as heavy thrustweapons (due to the use of sterups fron merovingian times), the Bayoux carpet and other sources indivcates more use of overhand thrusts, throwing spears, and lighter armour.

Yhe problem here is how mutch time we will invest in making a new animation to get this way of fighting just right.

I will first try to get all the unit's done and playable, then maybe look in to this later.
