!Uruk-hai Berserker is relatively expensive for its statistics; it can be directly contrasted with Uruk-hai Raiding Party, who has two extra base strength, but no text. However, Uruk-hai Berserker enjoys a lot more flexibility with his strength than most minions. If he has two wounds he can match the strength of Raiding Party (Or similar cost [4] uruks) and then gain one additional strength for each wound on the character he is skirmishing. In other words, Uruk-hai Berserker can reach a good strength quite quickly, but the shadow player must at the very least be prepared to exhaust him, making him vulnerable to being caught out by a surprise wound from the Free Peoples. | !Uruk-hai Berserker is relatively expensive for its statistics; it can be directly contrasted with Uruk-hai Raiding Party, who has two extra base strength, but no text.
