1) Introduction
*******************************************************************************
Hi and welcome to my first-ever FAQ. My name is Benjamin and I have visited
GameFAQs since 1997 and became a member in 2005. I wanted to start a FAQ about
this game because it's a very addictive and fun game that'll keep you busy for
hours. Any mistakes that I make or requests (see Wanted section) please e-mail
me at supbanjo01(at)hotmail.com. I will give credit to anyone that tells me
something that I don't know.
Worms is a Turn Based Strategy (TBS) game that combines fun cartoonish graphics
and a slightly complicated yet fun gameplay. It has over 10 titles and are well
known throughout the world. Worms 3D is the first to be made in a 3D engine.
Team 17 made a great job of taking the difficult leap of 2D -> 3D without
messing the essence of the game.
So with that said enjoy my FAQ and please bear with me since my grammar may
be a bit rusty.

There are lots of fun and strategical weapons in Worms 3D. Old favorites return
and new ones arise. Here is a list of all (hopefully) weapons in the game that
I have seen, so they are confirmed. If I am missing one please email me. They
are listed like so:
Name ~ Info. ~ Short history and fun facts.
Usage ~ How to aim and where
Damage ~ How much health it takes away and it's blast radius (small,
medium, medium big, big, and huge)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a) Weapon Strategies
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bazooka ~ Info. ~ Old Faithful. The classic wepon in the worms arsenal had to
show up in this 3D version. Very Difficult to use but very
helpful. Greatly affected by wind.
Usage ~ This weapon shoot in an arc. The stronger you shoot, the
longer the arc will form and vice versa. Keep this in mind
when using it. To hit targets far away, You need to aim
higher than the target and use the proper strength. The
distance between you and the target will tell you how much
power to use. Be careful not to overshoot the target.
Pay close attention to the wind speed because it is greatly
affected by it. Using the arc aiming, you need to change the
trajectory to the opposite direction to where the wind is
blowing. The wind speed will tell you how much. If the wind
is strong enough, you can us it to your advantage to make
the bazooka go further. It can also skim across the water if
thrown with enough force and almost parallel to water level.
Damage ~ approx. 45 and does a medium blast radius.
Homing Missile ~ Info. ~ Also returning, the homing missile does the same
amount of damage than the bazooka and is much
easier to use. Homing and deadly, it makes a great
weapon. Not affected by wind.
Usage ~ To master the Homing Missile, you need to know how
to throw it. First you go to the Blimp view and
press A over whereever you want it to hit. Next,
go to the 1st person view and aim it towards the
target high enough to clear any obstacles (mountains,
trees, etc.) and shoot with a considerable amount
of power. I wouldn't recomend trying to shoot someone
behind a mountain because chances are you'll miss.
Damage ~ Same as Bazooka.
Mortar ~ Info. ~ I don't remember if this was on the other games so if someone
knows, please let me know. Anyways, the Mortar fires a
cannonball and when it hits, it separates into 4 clusters.
You can't control the power so you need to learn to use that
to your advantage. It isn't the best weapon but when used
correctly, it can do a considerable amount of damage. Not
affected by wind.
Usage ~ The best way to use the Mortar is in small areas where the
enemy is close. A good tactic is to aim it until the aiming
arrow is near the top and shoot. This is good to let the
shell go over a mountain and hit an opponent on the other
side. The tricky part is to use the clusters effectively.
This depends on the angle that the cannonball hits.
Damage ~ approx. 10 with the shell (cannonball) impact and another
10 with each cluster. Has a small blast radius.
Homing Pigeon ~ Info. ~ Makes his reappearance this time and it's even funnier!
This may be the most unreliable weapon in the entire
game. Read along to find out why. Not affected by wind.
Usage ~ You use it exactly like the Homing Missile but
when it come to aiming in 1st person, I suggest to aim
it straight up or where there are no obstacles. The
good thing about it is that it avoids to hit obstacles
unlike the Homing Missile, but there are times when it
makes contact with the target and doesn't explode! It
just tries to peck it and if it doesn't blow up after a
while, it gives up and flies away! Although VERY
unreliable, it is super fun to use (because you never
know if it'll hit) and very powerful.
Damage ~ approx. 70 in a direct hit. Medium-big blast radius.
Grenade ~ Info. ~ Once again retuurning, the grenade is the second basic weapon
and a bit different from those mentioned above. I'd say the
hardest thing about it is when calculating the fuse time (see
usage). Not affected by wind.
Usage ~ The grenade is a fuse weapon. You can set the fuse time by
pressing the Z Button until it's set to the time you want.
After that, you use it like the Bazooka but it doesn't
explode when it makes contact. That's when making the
right fuse time is crutial. The stronger you shoot it, the
further it'll go and you wont need much fuse. Default fuse
time is 3 secs. The best areas to use it are in holes or
confined areas where it won't get too far from the target.
Damage ~ approx. 45 in a direct hit. Medium blast radius.
Cluster Bomb ~ Info. ~ Combination of Grenade and Mortar, the Cluster Bomb is
a fuse weapon that when explodes, separates into 5
smaller clusters. Not the favorite weapon in previous
Worms games but nevertheless strategic. Not affected by
wind.
Usage ~ Used exactly like the greande. The only advice I could
give you is to try and get the cluster to hit the same
spot or your opponent. Not very useful.
Damage ~ 10 with impact and 10 for each cluster that hits.
Small blast radius.
Gas Canister ~ Info. ~ A new weapon in the worms arsenal, the gas canister
makes a big green gas cloud that poisons any unfortunate
worm that is near. Great for slow deaths and long games.
Also a fuse weapon with the exception that you cannot
control the fuse time. Once it's fuse runs out and it
stays still, the gas comes out. Not affected by wind.
Usage ~ throw like a greande. The stronger the power, it will
go further. Try to infect various worms in an enclosed
area so the canister won't bounce off into the water.
Damage ~ 3 per turn. No blast radius.
Holy Hand Grenade ~ Info. ~ Let there be light. Or in this case massive
destruction. The Holy Hand Grenade is one of the
most powerfull and fun weapons in the game and
one of my favorites. Coming back from Worms 2, this
weapon packs a punch. Not affected by the wind.
Usage ~ Pretty easy to handle. Like the gas canister,
it's fuse cannot be controlled. Default fuse
time is 3 secs. You shouldn't use much power
when throwing because it goes pretty far with a
small amount of power and it bounces a lot. This
and the fact that it has to stay still to explode
is it's only downside. Most effective when thrown
to the middle of the terrain and where there's no
water around.
Damage ~ 100 max. Blast radius is Huge.
Banana Bomb ~ Info. ~ Returning once again, this fruit is a bit hard to master
but is very powerful. Another fuse, 5 cluster weapon.
It's VERY bouncy so you cannot just leave it in front of
your opponent. You need to set the fuse time for the
banana bomb to explode directly above the target. Not
affected by the wind.
Usage ~ To make proper use of the banana bomb, you need to
calculate how many seconds it would take for it to get to
your target. Set the fuse time and throw with the proper
amount of power. I'd say a little more than half the bar.
Hopefully the bomb will explode near target and it's
clusters can finish the job. You can also use the
landscape to your advantage. This is by throwing it
towards the ground so it bounces and may have better
accuracy.
Damage ~ Not sure but think 75 max. Blast radius is big.
Shotgun ~ Info. ~ Another classic weapon, the shotgun is unique. It allows two
shots and is fairly easy to use. Very usefull. You can move
around between shots.
Usage ~ When selected, and in 1st person view, aim to your target.
If it's far away, it will be harder to hit because your poor
worm's hands shake. In other words, you don't have a steady
target marker. Other than that, it's very usefull to finish
off weak Worms.
Damage ~ 25 per shot so 50 max. Blast radius is very small.
Uzi ~ Info. ~ Similar to the shotgun and returning physically better, the Uzi
is the ideal weapon to punish weak worms. You can still aim while
firing
Usage ~ Unlike the Shotgun, this has one round that is fired in one go.
As a bonus, the enemy worm can be pushed pretty far and possibly
to the water.
Damage ~ 50 max. Bast radius is very small.
Petrol Bomb ~ Info. ~ The Petrol Bomb or "Molotov Cocktail" returns. It
explodes on impact and leave the area where it hit in
flames. Powerful if used correctly. Not affected by wind.
Usage ~ The best strategy is to try and hit the enemy worm with
full power and directly so it will go flying away. If
not, it would be surrounded by flames and will trap him
for a while.
Damage ~ approx 20 on impact and flames do 1 or 2. Blast radius
none.
Sticky Bomb ~ Info. ~ This is the best new weapon in the game because it will
stick to the first thing it makes contact with. Another
fuse weapon and it is not affected by the wind.
Usage ~ Same as Grenades. You don't have to worry if it bounces
because it sticks!
Damage ~ approx 40. Blast radius is Medium
Blow Pipe ~ Info. ~ New weapon and quite useless. Its hard to hit a worm and it
only poisons him. Not very fun neither but funny when you
realize how useless it is. :)
Usage ~ Same as shotgun
Damage ~ Not sure if 1 or 3 per turn. No blast radius.
Fire Punch ~ Info. ~ Comes back from the original worms. Usefull to throw enemy
worms into the water. Pretty fun and easy to use. It
will cut any terrain that's above the worm.
Usage ~ Stand directly in front of your opponent and press A to
execute. Try to send them to any landmines or into the
water as a damage bonus.
Damage ~ 30. Not exactly a blast but it does destroy landscape so
I'd say very small.
Baseball Bat ~ Info. ~ A very fun weapon returns. With this weapon, you can
easily send your opponent flying off the landscape with
greater force than the Fire Punch. Combined with the Low
Gravity utility, it's very deadly.
Usage ~ Control the trajectory with directional pad or control
stick in FPV just be sure to be aiming all the way up
and your standing in front of the enemy worm to send it
far away.
Damage ~ 30. No blast radius
Viking Axe ~ Info. ~ Another returning weapon, the VIking Axe is very stragetic
and a bit harder to use. It has the ability to cut the
enemy worm's health half-way down so it's best used when
a opponent's worm has more than 100 health.
Usage ~ A bit hard to master. DO NOT stand directly in front of
your opponent. There needs to be a small distance between
your worm and the target worm so the axe will hit.
Practice.
Damage ~ 1/2 current health. No blast radius
Prod ~ Info. ~ Ah yes Prod...Probably many gamer's favorite weapon. This does
no damage. Instead, it gives the enemy a small push in the
intended direction.
Usage ~ No need to explain. Simply stand directly in front of the worm
you want to push and press A to prod. Use on worms that are
near the edge of water. Just be sure that your worm's not
slightly higher than enemy worm.
Damage ~ None
Land Mine ~ Info. ~ Another classic weapon, the mine gives the enemy a decent
blow and they are scattered throughout all levels. Nice
design. :P
Usage ~ Place with A in front of enemy worm and get away! It can
also be placed while wearing a Jetpack, Parachute, or Ninja
Rope. Be sure not to leave it too far away from target or
it won't trigger.
Damage ~ I think 55 max. Blast radius is medium big.
Dynamite ~ Info. ~ Dynamite...another priceless classic returns. My personal
favorite. Dynamite has a 5 second fuse and very fun to use.
Usage ~ Same as landmine. Be sure to get far enough because it's
very powerfull.
Damage ~ 75 max. Blast radius is big.
Sheep ~ Info. ~ Returning, the sheep is deadlier than before! If it encounters
any obstacles in its way, it will do its best to jump
them. These include other worms so don't overshoot them.
Usage ~ Press A to deploy and press it once again to detonate. I
suggest that you place your worm in a straight line from the
enemy.
Damage ~ 75 max. Balst radius is medium big
Super Sheep ~ Info. ~ Returning, the super sheep amazes all with it's flying
skills! Takes some practice to get used to flying it.
Usage ~ Press A to deploy and once again to make it airborn. Use
the control stick to move it around and the C stick to
rotate it. It explodes on contact. It is not aquatic so
don't get your hopes up.
Damage ~ 75 max. Blast radius is medium big.
Old Woman ~ Info. ~ The old farty woman returns. This weapon is surprisingly
hard to use. It will explode after 10 seconds of being
released or when it makes contact with a worm.
Usage ~ Position yourself in a straight line from the enemy and
release it. Pay close attention to the landscape beacuse
anyhting that sticks up or any obstacle will make the old
woman change its direction and it could backfire so keep
that in mind. It also falls down cliffs so use that as you
wish.
Damage ~ 75 max. Blast area is huge.
Mad Cow ~ Info. ~ The Mad Cow returns and it is one of the hardest weapons to
use and very destructive. You can choose how many you want to
throw by pressing Z. Be carful not to get hit yourself.
Usage ~ They explode on contact so beware and each leaves a giant
hole. They're a little unpredictable beacause you don't know
exactly if something will ignit it. Keep yourself to a safe
distance before throwing them.
Damage ~ Each can cause up to 75! Blast radius is huge.
Air Strike ~ Info. ~ Another classic, the airstrike returns a bit different.
Now you can see the plane! Yay! Anyways, its very
effective to finish off any last worms or attacking
worms that are lined up.
Usage ~ Holding the L button, move the target with the control
stick and with the C stick to change the direction.
Fun to use and very simple.
Damage ~ 30 each missile. Blast radius is medium.
Doctor's Strike ~ Info. ~ Useful in tight situations, th Doctor's Strike is a
cure-all miracle! The most strategic use is to use
it after a Nuclear Bomb has been detonated.
Usage ~ Just like Airstrike
Health ~ Whatever your health crates give. No Blast radius
Lottery Strike* ~ Info. ~ A....different weapon...yes...the lottery strike will
act like an airstrike but will call deadly unlucky
lottery tickets, where your prize is a blast! *gets
hit by reader*. Mildly Affeccted by the wind. Releases
6 tickets.
Usage ~ I advise using when there is no wind because if there
is, it'll make your life harder. We don't want that,
do we? Use like Airstrike.
Damage ~ Not sure I think its random from 1-50 Could someone
confirm? Blast radius is medium
Concrete Donkey* ~ Info. ~ The motherload. Behold the greatness of the Concrete
Donkey. THE most powerful and rare weapon in the
entire game. If someone has a different opinion,
I'll hunt you down *cocks shotgun*. A rare sight in
the worms game returns once again to those lucky
enough to find one. Crate only unfortunately.
Usage ~ Just like the Airstike, use the target to specify
where you want it to go. Once deployed enjoy the
beautifull sight of the Donkey destroying your
opponent. Consider yourself VERY lucky if you manage
to get one in multiplayer.
Damage ~ 55 max. each bounce. Blast radius is Ridiculously
Huge!!
Earthquake ~ Info. ~ Summon the witch doctor to call on his earthquake. This
weapon is very strategic. It shakes the landscape pretty
rough so be sure to be in an enclosed space before using
it. It moves oil drums, land mines and, of course, worms.
Usage ~ The earthquake does no damage. What is interesting is
that it has the power to easily throw most worms into the
water or any other hazard. To use, simply select it from
the weapon pannel and press A. Let the 'quake do the rest.
Best used as a final resort to a nasty win. Hehehehehehe
Damage ~ None
Nuclear Bomb ~ Info. ~ The nuke is a stragetic weapon that causes every worm
to get sick and it causes the water to rise.
Usage ~ Just like the earthquake. Best used
as a sudden death weapon to make your opponent as weak
as you would be. Makes a good combination with the
Doctor's Strike.
Damage ~ Poison. 5 per turn and water rises. No blast radius
but it must be Huge where it actually hit. :P
!!!READ THIS!!!: Need confirmation of Mega Mine. I have never seen it but maybe
you have so please let me know.
*I have only seen these weapons once so I don't remember the damage or usage.
Need confirmation.
*Phew* That's it for the main weapons! Now onto the utilities!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b) Utility Startegies
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Note: Instead of damage, I'll display a number from 1-10 of how usefull it
is. 10 being very useful and 1 not at all. Also note that most utilities
don't finish your turn, with the exception of Scales of Justice, Freeze,
Girder/Bridge Kit, Skip Go and Surrender.
Jetpack ~ Info. ~ One of the most useful and fun utilities, the Jetpack had to
return to Worms 3D.
Usage ~ Press A to fire the throttles. A number above your worm's
head displays the amount of fuel left so keep an aye on that.
Alternativeley you can leave a specific explosive with Y and
retreat before it blows. Also useful to go crate collecting.
Usefull ~ 10/10
Ninja Rope ~ Info. ~ The hardest utility to master, yet it's still fun to see
if whoever is using it actually makes it where they want.
Most of the times, the worm drowns. yay :)
Usage ~ It's 2D counterpart was much easier to use. Fire with A
while in FPV. To shorten the rope use Z and to lengthen R.
Press up on the control stick to shift your weight towards
your head and down to shift weight towards tail. You can
only swing in 2 dimensions. In other words, you cannot
turn. Press Y to leave a specific weapon and once attached
press A to let go and A while falling to re-attach it.
Easy. :)
Usefull ~ 6/10
Teleport ~ Info. ~ This has been in the Worms arsenal since the first worms.
Great for getting around and escaping from the water in
sudden death. Also usefull for quick transportaion.
Usage ~ With the Blimp camera, use the control stick to place the
target where you want it to go and press A to teleport.
Usefull ~ 7/10
Parachute ~ Info. ~ A very useful utility. Used to move between high to low
landscape area with no damage. Highly affected by the wind.
Usage ~ First, be very aware of the wind directiona and power. It's
great if it blows in the direction you wish to go. You can
always turn left or right slighty but never go in the
opposite direction. Press A while in the air to deploy and
A once again to take it away. You can drop specific
weapons with Y while in the air.
Usefull ~ 8.5/10
Girdir ~ Info. ~ Another classic, the girdir returns once more. I like the
artwork and design...very profound. Use them to create bridges
and shield to protect your last worm.
Usage ~ Move the girder with the control stick, the control pad spins
and tilts it, L and R raise and lower it, pressing Z toggles
big or small girder, and A places it. They are useful as
big bridges and shields, as mentioned above. A bit complicated
but easy.
Usefull ~ 8/10
Bridge Kit ~ Info. ~ These are 5 Girders at once. Place them quickly because it
takes some time to place 5 girders. One of the most
stragetic weapon in the game.
Usage ~ Great for "boxing" your worm. This means creating a
barrier on all sides of your worm.
Usefull ~ 7/10
Freeze ~ Info. ~ Returning, the freeze utility is used for pure strategy or to
see a frozen worm. :)
Usage ~ Select it, and press A to activate. Now your entire team will
be frozen in an impenetrable ice shield. It also prevents
frozen worms from getting sick by Nukes. Do not use when there
is not much land beneath you beacuse the enemy can destroy the
little land and in this game, ice doesn't float!
Usefull ~ 8/10
Scales Of Justice ~ Info. ~ This little baby balances out the round. It makes
all teams have the same amount of health to make
things more interesting.
Usage ~ Use when you have only one or two worms left while
the enemy has three or four. Simply press A to
activate.
Usefull ~ 9/10
Binoculars ~ Info. ~ See great distances with these wonders!
Usage ~ While in FPV, move binoculars with control stick, zoom in
with A and zoom out with B. I use them just for the
kicks of it...and to see if that's a worm or a rock in the
distance :)
Usefull ~ 3/10
Skip Go ~ Info. ~ Skip your turn
Usage ~ Press A to skip turn. Use when you don't know what to do or
when you're hiding.
Usefull ~ 3/10
Surrender ~ Info. ~ Pretty self-explanatory. You give up and the enemy wins.
Usage ~ Use it only as a last resort. I would use it to keep my
pride from being savagely taken away by the enemy.
Usefull ~ 0/10
Worm Select ~ Info. ~ Ever wanted t switch to a more well positioned worm? With
this special utility you can! This is probably the most
strategic utility in the game.
Usage ~ Select it from the weapon pannel and press A to activate.
Press Y to scroll through worms and when you get to the
one you want, move it to select it.
Usefull ~ 10/10
Fast Walk ~ Info. ~ This is very nifty. You get double your walking speed!
Great design...
Usage ~ Press A to activate and enjoy Flash speed!
Usefull ~ 8/10
Low Gravity ~ Info. ~ This baby lets you jump higher and longer! This includes
enemies hit by blast weapon and melee weapons.
Usage ~ Press A to activate and feel the power!
Usefull ~ 8/10
Red Bull ~ Info. ~ A fun new utility. It simply is Fast Walk and Low Gravity
put together. Very fun. You could say it gives you wings :)
Usage ~ Press A to drink
Usefull ~ 9/10
Crate Spy ~ Info. ~ Only comes in Utility crates, it allows you to see what
ohter crates have.
Usage ~ Activates when you get it.
Usefull ~ 7/10
Crate Shower ~ Info. ~ Only in ultility crates, it makes a bunch of crates
appear at once.
Usage ~ Activates when you get it.
Usefull ~ 4/10
Double Damage ~ Info. ~ Gives you double the normal damage and blast. Excellent
for using powerfull weapons like the Holy Hand Grenade.
Usage ~ Activates when you get it.
Usefull ~ 9/10
Double Turn Time ~ Info. ~ Doubles your actual turn time. Max. is 99 seconds.
Usage ~ Activates when you get it.
Usefull ~ 8.5/10
That's it for the Armory! Now onto the Walkthrough!

7) Walkthrough
*******************************************************************************
All Missions will be displayed like so:
Mission name
============
Small comment of Mission and difficulty rate (1-10).
1. First Strategy*
2. Second Strategy
3. Third Strategy
(You get the point)
Gold Requirements: What is required to achieve gold.
Rewards: What you get for completing the mission in gold**.
*In some missions, each number will represent 1 turn. These will be marked with
a *T* next to the title. Other missions, the numbers will represent
strategies. Deathmatch challenges will be in turn (*T*) and strategy form.
Beware, some of your worms may get killed so simply get another one to do what
the worm that died was supposed to do. This may not make sense right now but
when you play Deathmatch Challenges, you'll know what I mean. In all missions
you should know and understand what you're supposed to do.
**rewards vary with what trophy you get (gold, silver, bronze) and some are
easter eggs (See easter egg section).

order A-X-A. When you press the first time A, your worm will close the
parachute and fall rapidly. You need to quickly open the weapon panel and
press A again in the proper time i.e. open the Parachute when you're about 1/2
inch above the target. Timing is crucial for this to work.

and throw it directly up with medium force. Although it's much
easier to do, it sucks the fun out of getting the easter egg. :S
Gold Requirements: Finish in less than 5 1/2 min. <--Not sure <_<
