The '''Dynamite''' is a drop-and-run weapon capable of about 75 points of damage. The powerful blast can send worms flying far and wide. The dynamite comes with a fixed 5-second fuse, and you will always get a minimum 5-second retreat even if the scheme retreat time is set to zero. Like [[mine]]s, they can be dropped off of the edges of cliffs onto worms below.

* In [[Worms Reinforcements]] and [[Worms United]] for PC MS-DOS, it is possible to gently aim the drop of the Dynamite. The aiming reticle appears as it would with any other weapon - aiming directly forwards drops it with an ever-so-slight amount of forward momentum (similar to the default Dynamite behavior in [[Worms 2]] onwards). This makes it easier to drop off ledges without accidentally dropping it in front of you, though this can still be done if you aim directly upward or downward.

A dynamite being dropped off the edge of a cliff

The Dynamite (sometimes referred as Dyna in worms terminology) is a drop-and-run weapon capable of about 75 points of damage. The powerful blast can send worms flying far and wide. The dynamite comes with a fixed 5-second fuse, and you will always get a minimum 5-second retreat even if the scheme retreat time is set to zero. Like mines, they can be dropped off of the edges of cliffs onto worms below.

Tricks and glitches

  • Despite the blast launching worms far, it can also open a path while doing it. This way the blasted worm can fly far away even with a ceiling above him.
