They do go berzerk.

Also, where are you placing your archers such that they only get off "a few volleys"?



I generally place archers in the rear or on the flanks and forward a little bit.

I've never seen shortbow archers be very effective vs Devils. Sure they get off a couple volleys and wound some devils, but unless a Storm is on there are soon some Devils targeted at Archers that come kill them. And if Storm is on the arrows aren't effective (even with WG).

Just spread them out, like Frank suggested

Thanks for all the great advice in this thread. I played a few test battles using the strategy of spreading out my archers and having Seraphs cast lightning and found that to be pretty effective against Devils set to attack rear.
