Worms Evolved 2 : Now much less complicated!

[Plasma]

How on earth could it take that long to generate a map after just one weapon?

[franpa]

More then you would care to imagine, I guess. Job hunting always gets priority over hobbies anyways.

[Melon]

Oh right. Actually I was talking about the worm grid. You had team red, yellow, etc. in columns and team Plasma in a row.
Oh right :p That makes much more sense now.
How on earth could it take that long to generate a map after just one weapon?
Not long, but I also have to EMBIGGEN this one. Fortunately, I have a tmeplate, but still.

Oh, and I'm aware that the worms look a bit silly next to the huge numbers, but meh. It's more playable now and that's what matters.

---------------------------------------------

The crown worm teleports to B1 and collects the weapons crate and then moves to A1.

Plasma teleports to D5 and collects the weapons crate and then moves to B6.

Mech Plasma moves to J14 and releases an old woman Southwards! She walks to the purple baseball cap worm on O14 and steals some weapons before exploding!
The purple baseball cap worm rebounds off of the border and lands on N14, suffering 61 points of damage! His health is reduced to 79.
The purple goggles worm goes flying onto O12 and suffers 35 points of damage, reducing his health to 105.
The mine on O12 lets out a poisonous cloud and the purple goggles worm is further poisoned!

Poison reduces the purple goggle worm's health to 95.
Poison reduces the purple baseball cap worm's health to 74.
Poison reduces the white geeky worm's health to 105.

[Akuryou13]

the worms really do look fairly bad at this size....perhaps we should use a different worm sprite? anyone have the W:OW worms, maybe? I can do the hats or whatever

[Metal Alex]

Nah, that would defeat the sole purpose of making the map bigger: To have hugeass numbers.

[Akuryou13]

Nah, that would defeat the sole purpose of making the map bigger: To have hugeass numbers.yes, but the worms look silly next to said large ass numbers. I was just suggesting maybe we try a sprite that wouldn't look as silly.

[Plasma]

New VG version! (http://host-a.net/Plasma/Worms%20Evolved%20Alpha6.exe)
Now includes mines that actually do something (but poison is still disabled) and stack. Also includes window scaling.

[Muzer]

Shiny. Now make it in something other than GM so it runs on wine :p

Gamemaker programs don't work in Linux? Seriously?

[Muzer]

Gamemaker programs don't work in Linux? Seriously?
Well, last time I checked they didn't even if you did have hardware openGL (on my last distro). In this distro, hardware openGL drivers don't work, so it gives an error initialising Direct 3D even if the app doesn't actually use it.

I'll boot into my other distro just for you and try it out to see if it works.

Later.

[Plasma]

Oh well.

Download Worms Evolved Alpha7.exe (http://host-a.net/Plasma/Worms%20Evolved%20Alpha7.exe)

Now with fully working mines (including poison), all colours choosable, and weapon select. In a completely placemarkered way.

Which it will probably remain unless anyone wants to work on menus for that.

[SupSuper]

How do you move worms in that? dragging or clicking one then using arrow keys?It's all mouseclicks. Click to select a worm, click where you want to move it, click to select a weapon, click where you want to fire it, etc.

[franpa]

Click to select a worm, click where you want to move it,
I did overlook that option, it is all well and truely clear how it functions now.

[Melon]

I couldn't move your purple baseball cap exactly to where you wanted him to go Paul (not enough moves), so I moved him as close as I could. If you want it changed, let me know, but I didn't really want to confirm and hold this up any longer than it already took.

--------------------------------------------

Franpa's Turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd2a.png

--------------------

Wow, you guys really hate Franpa this game don't you?

[Paul.Power]

Bad luck, Franpa. Sorry about killing the 1HP worm, but I wanted to hit multiple targets and, well...

[Plasma]

Hey, don't blame me! All I did was help an old lady cross the street and into Paul!

[Shadowmoon]

This game looks like a lot of fun. I'm definitely joining the next game, got my PM saved up already :p

One question: I might make some sprites for my team, but i'll need some plain WA sprites, the same size as the one's on the board.

Or do I just get a normal sized WA sprite, (and I do know where to find some) and do you resize it so it is the right size, Melon?

[Muzer]

Why not just get some WA sprites from the page of light and resize them :rolleyes:?

[Shadowmoon]

Why not just get some WA sprites from the page of light and resize them :rolleyes:?

Because I don't know what the size of them have to be.

[Muzer]

Because I don't know what the size of them have to be.
Measure it then :p

[Plasma]

Because I don't know what the size of them have to be.
...what? You can take the size directly from the sprites above!

[Shadowmoon]

I've Decided not to make my own sprites at all.

I'll just use some premade ones.

[Akuryou13]

http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/worms/wa/anims/gfx/

that's teh link to all the animations. about half of those have worms in them (all the ones starting with W, for reference).

[Muzer]

Why isn't there a worm in http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/worms/wa/anims/gfx/wcrate1.gif then? ;p

[Akuryou13]

Why isn't there a worm in http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/worms/wa/anims/gfx/wcrate1.gif then? ;p:confused: huh..... go figure....

I guess I'm capable of being wrong even in the most pointless of ways.

[Metal Alex]

I guess I'm capable of being wrong even in the most pointless of ways.

Nah, not really.

see what I did there?

[Akuryou13]

Nah, not really.

see what I did there?I will KEEL JOO!! :mad:

[franpa]

Once my current turn plays out, I will make the last decision on where I wish to end my turn.

Thanks for your interest in the game. Unfortunately, once this match plays out, I'll be giving this a break until after Christmas, probably sometime in January (this game should finish before then, hopefully :p). You're still free to join in the next game though.

Yeah sorry about the delay. I never could have predicted the sheer amount of workload I've had lately. It'll mostly clear up after Christmas, it just all seems to have hit at once.

game 2 has begun!

the order of the teams is as follows:
Franpa (blue)
aku (grey)
plasma (yellow)
paul (purple)
metal alex (white). .

[Paul.Power]

Oh right, you've changed the order of the health bars so that they represent "which team has the most health" rather than "what order the teams go in". Sorry. (It's fair enough given that's what happens in the games, but dammit I was relying on those to tell turn order :p)

[Melon]

The grey archer wirm moves to E6 and launches an Old Woman at Plasma, before retreating to D7. The Old Lady steals some weapons from Plasma before exploding.

Now the text says he did but the image doesn't

[Akuryou13]

Now the text says he did but the image doesn'tuh.....yes, teh image has the bubble around him....and it hasn't been edited since melon's last post, either.

[Plasma]

He's using the same image address.
Aka: reload the picture.

[Akuryou13]

He's using the same image address.

oh, lol. I'd read that as Aku, not Aka :p

just ignore me.

[Paul.Power]

Sorry about the delay, chaps, but I need to have a chat with Melon about this because I know that the result of my first shot will affect the strategy I employ in my other shots.

[Metal Alex]

When I'm sure you can't blow up my site when I'm not looking. :p
Just for you though, here's a sneak peek at the fun fun world of PHP!
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/supsuper/th_ohthatphp.png (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/supsuper/ohthatphp.png)

I've also added crate generation/pickup today, with the code now at a whopping 1000 lines! Mines to come next.

[Melon]

Sorry about the delay, chaps, but I need to have a chat with Melon about this because I know that the result of my first shot will affect the strategy I employ in my other shots.
If this is the case, please don't wait for me to go onto MSN, because I can't guarantee that I will. Instead, send me the first part of your turn, then I can process it and PM you an update.

Alternatively, send me a mega-post with a whole string of "if so and so happens then do this otherwise..." detailing every possible outcome ;)

I'll try to get on MSN tomorrow though, but it won't be until the evening if I do.

[Melon]

The purple baseball cap worm moves to J11 and fires an arrow at the grey beanie worm. He slides onto A11 and suffers 15 points of damage, reducing his health to 100.

I don't know about you guys, but I was really pleased with the move I came up with for Goggles :).

[Metal Alex]

I don't know about you guys, but I was really pleased with the move I came up with for Goggles :).

That can't be good...

[Melon]

Franpa's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd3a.png

[Paul.Power]

That can't be good...Well, I was pleased with it tactically, anyway. Strategically it was kind of average (as it left Goggles open to instant -- and fatal -- counterattack), so it's nothing to say "That can't be good..." about.

Speaking of strategically average, you missed a golden opportunity to dynamite or mine the yellow crown worm while he was inside a Bubble Trouble. Well, yes, of course I'm bitter that you homing missile'd Baseball instead. But if I was in your position there, I'd have definitely gone for the yellow crown worm. Not only would it waste Plasma's Bubble Trouble, but you've used up a homing missile on my worm when you could have saved it for the endgame.

There's the "but Plasma's a pacifist this game!" argument, but all he has to do is survive with Bubble Troubles into a situation where there's only one opposition worm left, and he can launch his Super Sheep or any crates he picked up, to win the game.

Fair play on killing Goggles though, nothing wrong with that. TBH I was kind of expecting it.

EDIT: On the other hand, I won last time. So at the highest level of strategy, it actually does make sense to target me. Fair enough if that was your reasoning.

[Plasma]

Actually, I used my team weapon first go, and only got two crates. At this rate, even if I wanted to shout "SURPRISE" now, there's little chance of me winning.

Plus there's the fact that you were winning, not me.

[Paul.Power]

Actually, I used my team weapon first go, and only got two crates. At this rate, even if I wanted to shout "SURPRISE" now, there's little chance of me winning.

[Metal Alex]

Well, I was pleased with it tactically, anyway. Strategically it was kind of average (as it left Goggles open to instant -- and fatal -- counterattack), so it's nothing to say "That can't be good..." about...

OH! No. Not in that sense... I meant in the sense of "Crate contains ARMAGEDDON" way.

EDIT: To make it clearer: Bad for us.

[Akuryou13]

True, but killing Goggles put Aku in the lead, I think.technically plasma is still ahead by about 10 health points.

[Paul.Power]

technically plasma is still ahead by about 10 health points.
*checks* Oh right, yeah. And I think I'd still have been leading by 3hp anyway.

[Melon]

The blue crown worm uses a Fast Walk and runs to N4, picking up the weapons crate. He then releases a Mad Cow Eastwards before retreating back to O6 and setting up a Bubble Trouble.

[Plasma]

Crown Worm teleports to C4 and uses a bubble. Surprising, I think not!

Mechplasma squirms down to O1 and uses a bubble, and...
Ladies and gentlemen, I am now finally using a weapon!


...on the barrel at N2. With a bazooka.

DARING!!!

[Melon]

The yellow crown worm teleports to C4 and collects the weapons crate. He then uses a Bubble Trouble.

Over half of the worms in this game are near the edge of the map and hiding in bubbles. This game is going to be so exciting.

hahahahaha, yea -_-"

[Paul.Power]

Over half of the worms in this game are near the edge of the map and hiding in bubbles. This game is going to be so exciting.Don't look at me, I'm doing my bit :p.

Althought the phrase "short on options" springs to mind...

[franpa]

we need to kill aku and plasma -_- they got too many worms each :/

[Akuryou13]

we need to kill aku and plasma -_- they got too many worms each :/so....how many homing missiles DO you have? :p

[Melon]

Paul fires a homing missile at the grey beanie worm. He goes flying onto B15 and suffers 46 points of damage, killing him.

The grey beanie worm has died!

He explodes, dropping a donor card, but the ground crumbles beneath it and it sinks and so is lost forever.

Poison reduces the white geeky worm's health to 50.

Metal Alex's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd3e.png

[Paul.Power]

so....how many homing missiles DO you have? :pAt the time of asking? At least one :p

Also, as one of only two non-Bubble'd worms on the map, I sense a lot of hurt coming my way this turn.

[Metal Alex]

OH MAN! I love how good the game's looking for me!

:(

EDIT: OH HAI. Let me join the bubble club.

[Akuryou13]

so am I the only one noticing mechplasma nearly trapped in a corner? :p

[franpa]

no :)

[Paul.Power]

dooo it.

Mostly I'm saying this because it's one less shot fired at poor "dammit my Bubble Trouble got donor card'd" me

[Melon]

The white geeky worm teleports to A2 and collects the health crate, unpoisoning him and increasing his health to 80. He then moves to A1 and uses a bubble trouble.

The bubble on O6 disappears.

The wind is not blowing this turn. A weapons crate falls onto G3.

Franpa's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd4a.png

[franpa]

Fast Walk, 3x left, grenade the square above the yellow worm then retreat 3x right. (it needed to be done :/ )

[Plasma]

Let it be known that it is Franpa's fault that I got stuck in a corner!

[franpa]

unless you tele away, I will personally make sure your not stuck there for long ;)

[Paul.Power]

Let it be known that it is Franpa's fault that I got stuck in a corner!
Well, and my fault for egging him on.

[Melon]

[Plasma]

unless you tele away, I will personally make sure your not stuck there for long ;)
That sounds like a threat.

A threat against me, to be precise.


Crown worm moves to F4 and uses a homing missile on O7.
MechPlasma uses a bubble, and shoots a longbow at the worm at O6.


And that, Franpa, is why you do not threaten your enemies.

[Paul.Power]

Of course, an island can also double as a moat.

[Akuryou13]

Of course, an island can also double as a moat.not when the shortest fire range is 3 squares :p

[Paul.Power]

not when the shortest fire range is 3 squares :pbubble trouble

[Akuryou13]

bubble troubleobviously, but how long can he keep that up?

[franpa]

Crown worm moves to F4 and uses a homing missile on O7.
MechPlasma uses a bubble, and shoots a longbow at the worm at O6.
Awww, GG for now ;)

[Paul.Power]

obviously, but how long can he keep that up?Hmm. 130 point spend, so at eight points apiece that's a maximum of 16 BTs. Also assuming he isn't lying about not buying any weapons.

But let's take it turn-by-turn:

Turn 1: Two teleports (2 x 5 = 10 points) and an Old Woman (special). Two weapon crates collected, three weapons nicked from me (two shotguns and a longbow)

Turn 2: One teleport, two bubble troubles (5 + 2 x 8 = 21 points). One donor card collected (I've forgotten whose card it was, but they'll know what was in it)

Turn 3: One teleport, two bubble troubles (5 + 2 x 8 = 21 points), one zook (crate/donor card?). One weapon crate collected.

Turn 4: One bubble (8), one homing missile (crate/donor card?), one longbow (the Old Woman that attacked my team).

So he's only definitely used 60 points so far, with a possible 70 points in reserve.

Question: does the water level rise in Sudden Death? Because if it does, then that places a definite limit on how long Plasma can "keep it up".

[SupSuper]

how long Plasma can "keep it up".:eek: :eek:

[Melon]

The yellow crown worm moves to F4 and fires a homing missile at O7.

Mechplasma uses a Longbow and fires an arrow at the blue crown worm, who slides into the water on O7.

The blue crown worm has drowned!

The blue team has been eliminated!

Mechplasma decides not to use his second arrow and uses a bubble trouble.

The wind is blowing North at a strength of 2. A weapons crate falls onto C2.

Paul's turn

------------------------------------------

@Paul: Nice analysis, and yes, the water does rise during sudden death.

[Plasma]

obviously, but how long can he keep that up?
Do you remember the part where I said "I didn't get any weapons this time"? Wanna take a guess as to what I spent the points on instead?

[Akuryou13]

Do you remember the part where I said "I didn't get any weapons this time"? Wanna take a guess as to what I spent the points on instead?lol wow. if that's basically all you got then you are going to be one boring player this round :p

[franpa]

just super weapon him into the sea, ignore the bubble! unless the bubble also protects the ground he stands on :/

[Melon]

Paul launches a super sheep! It goes flying through the air and lands on Plasma. By "lands" I mean "explodes violently".
The weapons crate on G3 is caught in the blast and also explodes! The combined explosions of the sheep and crate sends Plasma flying onto H5 and causes 137 points of damage, reducing his health to 13.
Another sheep is also thrown from the crate explosion and it lands on F4 and drowns. By "lands" I mean... oh wait not this time. A PETA supporter looks on in disgust.

The bubble on A1 disappears.

The wind is blowing West at a strength of 1. A health crate falls onto I10.

[Plasma]

Something tells me that worm isn't going to survive the night...

[Paul.Power]

See, there was one thing bugging me. "If Plasma has Bubble Troubles out the wazoo, why didn't he protect the crown worm?". I still don't know the answer - whether a) he'd ran out, b) he wanted to use them all on Moat Worm, c) he was lying about having spent all his points on utilities or d) he just forgot - but I do know an open goal when I see one.

[Plasma]

That would be plan B there Paul. I don't have enough bubbles to cover both worms that far into Sudden Death, and if darksiding does somehow manage to work, I don't need a second worm.


Remember, blame Franpa for the moat.

[Melon]

The white geeky worm moves to C2 and collects the weapons crate. He then uses a bubble trouble and prods the mine on C3. The mine rolls onto C4 while beeping and then releases a poisonous cloud, but it affects no-one.

The bubble on C9 disappears.

The wind is blowing East at a strength of 1. No crate drops this round.

Sudden Death will occur in 3 rounds (Rounds being full cycles of turns)

That's a lot of definitions. Although I think "set" has got more.

But yeah, strange move there, Alex. Out of big weapons?

[Akuryou13]

That's a lot of definitions. Although I think "set" has got more.that was only the noun section: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/turn

Aku moves to C8 and fires two shotgun shells at Paul, who suffers 50 points of damage, reducing his health to 130. Aku the retreats to C10.

The grey archer worm uses a Fast Walk and runs to the health crate on K12, increasing his health to 119. He then runs to I12 and fires a shotgun shell at the health crate on I10, which explodes. He fires his second shot at Paul, who suffers 25 points of damage, reducing his health to 105. The grey archer worm retreats to J12.

The bubble on O1 disappears.

The wind is blowing West at a strength of 1. A weapons crate falls onto D8.

Plasma's turn

-------------------------------------

Sorry about the rather large delay on updating this turn. I've now gone home for Christmas and might be starting some full time work over the Christmas period so updating this could get a bit slow. I was hoping to have this game done before now for precisely this reason, but oh well :/

Anyway, another question about sudden death: do our healths get reduced to 1?
No. As soon as Sudden Death hits (The start of Aku's 3rd upcoming turn), the water will rise covering the 1 damage squares (or the land crumbles, whatever). It will then continue to rise/crumble at the end of everybody's turns until one team is left or everyone drowns. People in bubbles will still have the land disappear beneath them in this scenario.

I have not been following this, but you appear to be spontaneously deciding to give your worm swimming lessons?

[Akuryou13]

I have not been following this, but you appear to be spontaneously deciding to give your worm swimming lessons?shhhhh. he'll never notice :p

[Plasma]

I have not been following this, but you appear to be spontaneously deciding to give your worm swimming lessons?
Pretty much. I planned on killing him so that he wouldn't drop a donor card, but I didn't pack any kamikazes. Had Paul not gone for the 'open goal', I would've been stuck.
The alternative would be to try kill Paul and leave a donor card, but I wanted him to survive because Aku is too far ahead. I'd rather die than break my pacifist oath! (Franpa doesn't count. Although technically he died because he wasn't able to swim; all I did was shoot him with an arrow.)

Now Paul, what did we learn about when someone leaves themselves open?

Edit: even better, he's now one team weapon short! AHAHAHAHAHI'mevil.

[Paul.Power]

Don't suppose there's a Nuclear Bomb in any of those crates.

[Melon]

MechPlasma surrounds himself in a bubble.

The yellow crown walks up to the water in F4 and holds his breath. He plunges in, and is never heard from again.

The yellow crown worm has drowned!

That is one coincidental weapon crate. It'd be even better if it held something big that he used right there.

[Akuryou13]

That is one coincidental weapon crate. It'd be even better if it held something big that he used right there.no, that would suck :p

and the weapon drops DO tend to drop near the person who's turn it is. I'm wondering if melon's system is just flawed or if he takes a hand in the randomness once in a while.

[Melon]

Paul moves to I9 and collects the weapons crate.
He then moves to J10 and fires a longbow shot at the grey archer worm, who slides onto J14 and suffers 15 points of damage, reducing his health to 104.
Paul fires his second arrow at the mine on E10, which rolls onto C10 and lets out a huge force of energy. Aku gets thrown Southwards by the shockwave and lands on G10.
The mine on B9 gets pushed onto A8.
The mine on D9 gets pushed onto E8.

The bubble on C2 disappears.

The wind is blowing South at a strength of 2. A health crate falls onto C11.

Metal Alex's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd5d.png

---------------------------------------------------

So... yeah. I'm aware that the way mines works looks really weird here, with Paul firing a mine North and Aku moving really far South as a result.

and the weapon drops DO tend to drop near the person who's turn it is. I'm wondering if melon's system is just flawed or if he takes a hand in the randomness once in a while.

I can 100% guarantee that it's entirely random. I just use "rand(15) + 1" and floor it when deciding where crates should drop. Exactly how I decide placement of worms and objects at the start of the game (and I re-roll if it tries to spawn somewhere invalid). I too have noticed the hilarious tendency for crates to drop next to Worms, but I can guarantee that it is coincidental.

Unless of course, there's something wrong with how my calculator generates random numbers.

[Plasma]

Owch! I can only imagine how screwed Paul is right now!

[Akuryou13]

Owch! I can only imagine how screwed Paul is right now!:cool: haven't decided yet :cool:

The white geeky worm releases a mad cow Eastwards. It collects the health crate on C11, increasing the geeky worm's health to 110, and then walks into the water on C14.
The geeky worm then moves to D2 and launches a second mad cow Eastwards. It collects the weapons crate on D8 and then explodes when it reaches the border at D15.
The mine on D15 is thrown Eastwards and rebounds off of the border. It settles on D14.
The mine on E14 is thrown onto E13.
The geeky worm retreats to B2.

No wind is blowing this round. A weapons crate falls onto A7.

Sudden Death will occur in 2 rounds

Hmm, now this is an interesting Standoff.
There's Alex, who now has a good collection of weapons. There's me, whose quite obviously trying to last out for a Sudden Death win/stalemate. There's Aku, who has twice the team as anyone else. And there's Paul, who is now officially screwed.

[Paul.Power]

Could be worse. I could have 1 health or something.

The white geeky worm moves to C2 and collects the health crate, increasing his health to 140. He then moves to A2.

The white geeky worm gets down onto his.... uh.... knees (or knee-analogues) and begins to pray for world peace and a new series of Star Trek. Unfortunately, the little squirming creatures of this world didn't please the badly drawn overlord when they decided to worship a garden ornament instead a few millennia ago and he still seems to hold a grudge.

Sudden Death will occur next round

Aku's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd7a.png

---------------------------------------

Oh lordy why did I make that weapon?

Anyway, I just want to make sure everyone's clear on how Sudden Death works. The water will rise after every turn starting from as soon as it strikes. That means that at the end of Alex's next turn it will strike and the water will rise immediately, so Aku will start his turn with all of the light green squares underwater.

[Metal Alex]

That sure felt good, even if everyone survived :cool:

I couldn't care less about the outcome now :D

[Akuryou13]

wow melon. that must have been an enormous pain in the ass to calculate...

[Melon]

Hey everyone, sorry about the three week hiatus. This game is nearly over so we should manage to finish it off pretty quickly. Let's get this finished.

--------------------------------

The grey archer worm walks up to the weapons crate on M7. He begins to open it when he hears a beeping sound. He cautiously looks to the side and discovers a mine ready to explode.
The booby trapped crate explodes! The grey archer worm is sent flying onto M5 and suffers 73 points of damage, killing him.

The grey archer worm has died!

He explodes, dropping a donor card (Contains Jetpack x 1 and Homing missile x 1), but the ground crumbles away and it sinks.

Aku moves to H8 and uses a bubble trouble.

The bubble on O1 disappears.

The wind is blowing East at a strength of 1. A health crate falls onto K6.

Plasma's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd7b.png

----------------------------------------

I do feel a bit bad about this turn because the results of the armageddon weren't formatted very well so Aku missed the part saying how that crate became booby trapped. Oh well never mind.

As a recap because it's been so long, Sudden Death is going to hit after Metal Alex's turn (he comes next after Plasma).

[Plasma]

Teleport to health crate on K6, move to yellow square K9 picking up donor card. Use bubble.


Also, I knew someone'd grab that booby crate.

[Melon]

MechPlasma teleports onto the health crate at K6, increasing his total health to 106. He then moves to K8 to collect the donor card before moving to K9 and using a bubble trouble.

The wind is blowing West at a strength of 1. A weapons crate falls onto B3.

Metal Alex's turn

http://www.kieranmillar.com/wormsevolved/map5rnd7c.png

[Plasma]

Oooooh, I think I just nabbed the last thing Aku could've used to stop me from winning!

[Melon]

The white geeky worm moves to B3 and collects the weapons crate. He then moves to C3.
He launches an airstrike between M9 and M13. It weakens the land but causes no other damage.

The bubble on H8 disappears.

The wind is blowing West at a strength of 3. A health crate falls onto G10.

Sudden Death strikes!
The ground begins to crumble away.
A mine on D14 sinks.
A mine on E10 sinks.

how come the square that the white worm is now on, didn't get affected by SD? Does SD weaken dirt per turn? or does SD just remove each level of dirt starting from the lowest? (the difference is how it is presented graphically)

It removes each level of land per turn, judging by the key. Note how the level 1 land has been replaced by water.

Honestly, I expect he has a better way to kill me. Especially considering I hadn't really thought this part of the match through, and didn't realise that I'd be in combat range of Aku; but couldn't do anything about it, as it would put me out of combat range of Aku anyway.

Second thoughts, scratch that:
I hadn't really thought ANY of the match through.
I mean, the whole reason I picked 'no weapons' was to see how long I'd last! No plan behind it!

Well yes, if he had a mine or dynamite, I'd be screwed anyway.
However, I was just after stealing a dynamite from him on my last go! I'm also hoping that he doesn't have another.

[Melon]

I believe this, threw me a bit off on how SD was being presented.
Yeah, sorry. I was considering redrawing each square with a lower down colour, but decided it was too much hassle because I'm lazy. I'm sure the online version can do that if it's clearer for people to understand. I also considered writing that the water was rising, but technically this ground is flat and that wouldn't have made sense either, but oh well.

-----------------------------

Aku moves to J9. He reaches into the bubble on K9 and places a mine onto Mech Plasma, before running away chuckling to himself. He retreats to I9 and uses a bubble trouble.
The mine explodes, sending MechPlasma flying Westwards onto K8 and dealing 49 points of damage, reducing his total health to 57.

The bubble on K9 disappears.

The mine on D6 releases a cloud of noxious green gas, poisoning the geeky white worm.

Poison reduces the white geeky worm's health to 135.

The bubble on I9 disappears.

The wind is blowing South at a strength of 3. A weapons crate falls onto B2.

OH GOD! I can't believe it worked. Now, all I have left is to pray.

Don't understimate me :cool:well you've got one turn to use that donkey or whatever else you could have that could still be useful :p

if you do, I'll definitely be surprised.

[Melon]

In one last bid of desperation, the white geeky worm leans over the edge into the water and begins to prod it, hoping to create a giant tidal wave to drown Aku given enough time. To his complete surprise, it almost works! Unfortunately, the ground crumbles beneath him first. Oh well. He should have pulled that magic teleporting dynamite out of his ass instead.

Poison reduces the white geeky worm's health to 125.

The bubble on I8 disappears.

It would've been even more impressive if Aku had moved to H8, the very centre of the map, rather than playing it safe at I8.

Still, good game. I lasted far longer than I expected for a guy with no weapons. But yes, a land-damagable Bubble is sorely needed.
