Sheep

The Sheep is one of Worms Series' most trademark weapon, the other being the Holy Hand Grenade. It is a weapon that will run forward when released, and will detonate on the users command. The sheep would jump randomly after release, and if faced with an obstacle, it will attempt to jump over it. Like all other animal-typed weapons, the user will get the items contained in a Crate/Utility Box if the sheep happens to stumble over it.

The sheep can deal a large amount of damage, even more so than the Dynamite. But due to impractical use and general rarity of the weapon, it is not as commonly used.

Baaa!

Exactly what goes on inside the sheep's mind? Best not to think about it, just let him go and watch him bounce across the landscape. If the sheep comes across an obstacle or ravine then he will do his best to get across it. Pressing fire once sends the sheep on his way and then second press detonates him, if he's left too long jumping around then he will get tired and do something about it himself.

A sheep in the face can do as much as 75 points of damage!

How to use the Sheep
Once released, the sheep will run forth in the direction you released it. It will attempt to jump over any terrain obstacle, but will turn its direction if it hits a wall or a piece of impassable terrain. This is one of the things that makes use of sheep impractical, because you really can't be certain where it will go.

The sheep can be detonated in its path by pressing the fire button once again. But if the sheep is left running for too long, a timer of 5 seconds would start to countdown, and then it detonates.

Tips & Tricks

 * To deal the largest damage, detonate when the sheep jumps on your enemy's worm.
 * To push the enemy further away from its position, detonate when the sheep is near to your opponent's worm.
 * It is useful to use since it can jump off to the other side. It is highly advisable that it might unsuccessfully jump off to the other side and fall, unless you are in space, the sheep can jump higher.
