On the Dreamcast version of WWP, we used to play this fun setup using the weapon set called "Tanks" on the Alcatraz level. this setup was fun because you couldn't move, and half your worms would be on little girders, and the other half on the island. It had limited weapons, and teleport would open up after so many turns. It took a great amount of skill to get your kills.

Now I have installed my copy of WWP on the PC since I no longer have a dreamcast. After reading the boards, I noticed everyone saying that you cant unlock anything on the PC. So i guess I have to create the "Tanks" weapon set. So Im just wondering if anyone is able to give me the specifics of this setup, since I have no DC to check it on.

Thanks in advance. I had forgot how much fun this game really is. I hope Team17 will make a new 2d version for the PC and MAC.

Weapon setup and rule setup are called Schemes. They can be edited in the game and saved.

I don't think anyone here knows the specificts of the "Tanks" scheme because I don't think it ever existed for the PC. What you're describing sounds like "BnG" though. You can find the scheme in various worm websites browsing the stickies in the forums.
Here is one that usually works: www.blamethepixel.com

I'll go onto my dreamcast soon (probably tomorrow) and find it for you.

Thanks! I've been searching deep in the internets for an answer to this all last night and this morning. The best I have found was just a site that listed all the schemes for the dreamcast version, but only includes a very brief description. Nothing that can used to make the scheme on the PC.

Here is the link for the site with the dreamcast scheme title list incase anyone wants to take a look at it.
