“ | Merciless and psychotic, these frenzied Berserkers kill with total devotion to the God of Warriors. | „ |
Brutes of the Hound (Marauder Berserkers) are a Norsca,
Daemons of Chaos,
Khorne and
Warriors of Chaos Regiment of Renown melee infantry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer with the Foundation Update.
Recruitment[ | ]
Description[ | ]
Marauder Berserkers are driven by one thing alone; a lethal intent to inflict unparalleled brutality upon their enemies. Like all Marauders, they are unrelenting combatants who habitually take what their own lands cannot provide from lesser men, but are set apart by their bizarre pre-battle rituals and unequalled fanaticism for killing. They immerse themselves in a psychotic state of mind before a fight, always consuming vast quantities of beer and indulging in head-butting contests prior to entering the battlefield. Once they see their enemies they attack without regard for their own lives, wild-eyed and frothing at the mouth. Upon reaching their target, the Berserker turns into a human whirlwind – with an axe in each hand, he spins, chops, and dismembers with a strength only achievable by a madman
Attributes[ | ]
Berserker Axe Infantry
- ▲ Anti-Infantry: Anti-infantry units have an advantage against targets that are smaller than a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against small targets, superior weight used to smash through lighter enemies, or an explosive attack from range that effects a large area.
- ▲ Damage Dealer: This unit has a strong emphasis on dealing damage. If fighting it, make sure to take it out before it can get into firing or melee range.
- ▲ Frenzy: Units with
frenzy cause more damage while their
leadership is high.
