This is all a large preamble to asking the big question. Is their *anything* which can effectively counter Bezerkers with high (or maxed) aggressiveness or defensiveness? Put another way, if your opponent has high defensiveness/agressiveness and you do not, what strategy can you adopt that is a good long term strategy and not doomed to failure once he retrofits a couple of PD cannons onto his ships? So far I can't think of anything[QB]

As you have no doubt figured out now it is actually quite easy to do this. Simply get 4 of the 5 highest ranked players in a 6 player game to gang up on the #2 ranked berzerker.

Hey you were #1 when we started! That was 50 turns ago to and you're only down to #2. More evidence to support my point...

Well I think I was #2. And I'm #3 now and losing every big battle with minimal losses to the enemy. I think your point was that berzerker combo was virually unstoppable when combined with maxed aggerssive and defensive (which BTW I do not have) When 4 of the 5 top players in the game (the six being way way way Last) gang up on the berzerker the outcome is pretty much a forgone conclusion. (especially when they are in the corner and the berzerker in the middle) Berzerker is not the all powerfull attribute you make it out to be. Cetainly not in a multiplayer game.
