The Berserker is one of two Danish unique units, replacing the Longswordsman. This unit has +1 compared to the Longswordsman and possesses the Amphibious promotion, allowing it to attack onto land from a coast tile with no penalty. It is also available after researching Metal Casting instead of Steel. Use it to attack coastal cities.
Notably, in Brave New World, this is the only unique unit in the game which is on the same upgrade path as another of the same civilization: the Norwegian Ski Infantry.
