3. Use Your Turns to Move Over to a Safer Attack Location

When it’s your turn to go into attack mode, make sure you use it to move over to a safe attack location. This means you should avoid any harmful obstacles that may disrupt your turn and plan of attack. It’s best to pick up ninja ropes or jetpacks, since they’ll keep you from getting hurt. These items keep you safe by moving you to a good spot for your firing position. Moving over to a safe offensive point can also lead to picking up a good defensive point.


4. Be Careful About Numbers Marked with Red Numbers Attached to Them

Modojo.com noted that players should use caution when using weapons with red numbers placed on them:

Be very careful when using any weapons that have a red number embossed over the icon. This information tells you how many seconds will pass from using the weapon to the projectile exploding. Make sure you take this information into account when setting up your shot.


5. Get to Know Those Worm Classes

Modojo.com also stated that players should take heed of all the new classes attached to your worms:

One of the biggest changes made to the Worms formula in Worms 3 is the class system. Soldiers do decent damage and move at an average speed around the screen – a great all-rounder. Scouts do less damage but are smaller and more nimble. Scientists make for a great support team member, but if you’re all about doing damage, make use of your slow but powerful Heavy class.
