It's not my video.

HAH, talk about unlucky! Yeah, and Old Woman steals a weapon every time she bumps into a worm. It's... umm... very overpowered.

Indeed!
Deploy her between two enemy worms who are very close to each other, and you can empty their arsenal quickly.

I thought the added utility of weapon stealing added to the old woman was a great addition as she really wasn't a very good weapon before. The major problem was that it needed to be limited so that if the old woman got stuck (which seemed to happen all the time) she didn't go on a stealing rampage and take absolutely everything.

????????? Guys? What the HELL??

I've been thinking the steal function mentioned in the manual was a mistake or something... I've been trying to steal-bump worms hundreds, thousands of times and it never actually worked!!?

Or did I just not notice it? Perhaps I gained some cluster bombs (which I have no clue what they are good for) every time I released an old woman?

Or is it because the old woman does not pass to you the weapons she stole? Howsoever, I'm gonna have to try it now :p

That sounds pretty broken (in a good way)!

What happens if she bumps into your own worms?

Nothing, she won't steal weapons from team members. Which is a good thing :p

I believe that I have suggested to Deadcode to include such a stealing feature to WA's Old Woman.
Would require a bit more skill than a point&click stealing feature like in WR.

Well, teams share their arsenal anyway.

Thing is, the weapons the woman steals won't be passed to the team that unleashed her, they'll simply disappear. Therefore it would have been terrible if the woman was able to steal weapons from team members...

...or not. That would have added a bit more of skill: avoid own worms at all costs! :p
