Revision as of 09:46, 28 March 2009
Should we just merge this with the morale page? It's really short...
Also... do berserk units fire completely randomly, or do they actually bother aiming at units?
Maybe i should test this... yes, yes... i have my psi troops...
I shall test this and update then!

From my initial tests, it appears berserk troops actually prioritise enemies! Furthermore, scarily enough, berserk aliens STILL concentrated fire on my tanks. From what I can see, berserk behaviour seems to be:
1. Is there an enemy in front of you? a. yes. shoot it. Go to 1. b. no. proceed to 2.
2. Do you "remember" where an enemy is, within LOS and 10 squares? a. yes. Spin around and shoot it. Go to 1. b. no. Proceed to 3.
3. Fire a shot anywhere within your LOS, and within 10 tiles. Shooting at 45 degrees will make your unit turn, as normal fire. Proceed to 1.
