Are they unbalanced? Are they not fun, to powerful, to weak () etc etc
Post your replies here, i have a plan for this, and all responses will be very gratefully recieved

I just used them for the first time, and by having them in front of my Gallowglasses in the woods with my general behind I was able to destroy 2 units of Comitatsenes and Prave whatevers nearly instantly and after that two Foedarti Cavalry, without my gallowglasses becoming truly involved in the fight. My general helped a bit with one of the Foedarti though.
Overpowered? Oh yeah. (Well unless you missile them, then they're doomed)
Fun? Definately.

i think these guys are more of a fun unit than a practical or balanced one -- although i love lombard berserkers. i thought i heard or read that berserker-type infantry (doped up crazies that fought naked) were employed to break enemy formations, especially shieldwalls. but then, maybe i'm just imagining things
Well, i think i have succesfully made them a mixture of Fun and Powerful....check out these screenshots

Feedback is good, how i can improve Berserkers, et all

hmm...i'd say it's interesting. the one thing about berserkers in general that i envisioned was that they were a kamikaze unit. i figured they should have a low all around defense, but extremely high attack. so they either do their job and kill lots of people, or they die...and maybe both. but that's just me :P
hehe, belive it or not, sometimes they dont go berserk...then they get gubbed by everything, i mean they only have attack 4 and defence 9, so when they dont go mad then they die easily, and arrows really finish these guys off.
