Berzerker Warband
Detachment Rules
Relentless Rage
Each time a WORLD EATERS unit from your army makes a Charge move, until the end of the turn, add 1 to the Attacks characteristic and add 2 to the Strength characteristic of melee weapons equipped by models in that unit.
The World Eaters fight in a perpetual fury, driven ever onwards to slaughter all who stand in their way. All of their warriors have been subject to horrific psycho-surgery, implanted with crude devices that amplify their aggression, while some also submit to possession by the raging daemons of the Blood God. Whatever drives their berserk rage, these warriors only stop killing when every foe lies in ruin at their feet – and sometimes not even then.
