Shotgun

Description
The Shotgun is weapon existing in just about every worms game to date, it is primarily used for shooting up to 1-2 enemies from medium-range distance (although with careful precision can reach opponents across the whole map, depending on the map size and circumstances). The Shotgun is contains two buck-shots and has a maximum of 25 damage.

Using the Shotgun
Shotguns are generally made to shoot enemies in its lined radius and have an extra shot by default. An Direct shot will have the enemy worm dropping 25 hp and send them back a few worm-steps, this is very useful when trying to make to opposing worms drown if there by water respectively. Another fun little use of the Shotgun is its ability the move a Mine, which can be very helpful to someones strategy.

Pros and Cons
Although the Shotgun works well in different situations there are some flaw and drawbacks to it.

Pros

 * The Shotgun contains two shots so if one misses you always have the second one.
 * The Ability two take out two different worms with two different shots.
 * Its long-ranged precise shots.
 * Requires very little skill.

Cons

 * The shotgun is particularly weak and doesn't have a the ability to take a well standing worm. Its mainly used to kill worms by water and worms at low health (depending on the health setting).
 * The Shotgun isn't that great at firing down, sometimes causing it to hit the ground below you. Usually resulting in self-damage.
 * If firing in tight confines to kill an enemy close to you, you'll also hurt yourself in the process of firing. And once you have inflicted your self of damage your turn ends.
 * The Shotgun requires you to shoot both shots. So swapping out wont be executed.
