Saga - My Vikings
Berserkers - A journey to find the right mix of gore and crazy
I used the warlord model from the Gripping Beast box, gave him two swords and decided that that could denote his berserker status. I gave another guy two axes and used the dane axes in the set to complete the 4 models i would need in game.
After a while i revisited them and decided that they just didn’t stand out enough on the battlefield. To remedy this I put some Frostgrave barbarian spare heads on the base as severed bloody evidence of their savagery.
This did help make them stand out but I soon realized that a lack of armour or care for your own safety is a big element of the berserker attitude and also that the dane axe models would be really useful for my Anglo Dane army i was planning.
With that in mind i bought some metal berserker models at Salute one year and added two of those. The Dane axe models were removed and I am happy with my current team of berserkers.
