- The shooting squad shoots at the closest hex of the closest squad possible (if there are several equidistant squads, one is chosen randomly).
- In melee combat, a squad always chooses the closest enemy and hex that is easiest to reach. If there are several equidistant squads, one is chosen randomly. The squad does not pass a turn if it is possible to reach the target.

Berserk is perhaps the most powerful combat spell in the game. It allows heroes to defeat armies with clearly stronger forces.
