We tested over 26 Berserkers. Man. I don't know the exact count because some variants we tried without me printing them out. Most could attack when gained. Some were {{Card|Knights|Knight}}-family, some {{Card|Militia}}-family. There were several issues that repeatedly came up, that wanted to be addressed: it should be played when gained, not just attack, so that {{Card|Moat|Moats}} would work against it; it should have no way to wreck an opening {{Split|5|2}}; the resources should be useful when gained, without stepping on {{Card|Nomads}}; the text should fit on the card. And I mean, ideally it should be fun and not wreck the game and all that. 26+ tries, attacks are hard, and the when-gain trigger made it harder. | We tested over 26 Berserkers. Man.
