'''Homing''' is a scheme with no rules and few weapons, can be played in any map. The main weapons of the scheme are "homing weapons": [[Homing Missile]], [[Homing Pigeon]], [[Patsy's Magic Bullet|Magic Bullet]] and also, a weapon that you control: [[Aqua Sheep]]. There are other weapons that are very strong but with very little ammo and delay. The stronger the weapon is, the greater the delay of it.

In addition to the three homing weapons, and Aqua Sheep, which are all provided in unlimited quantity, a small selection of super weapons is present too - the Armageddon, Nuke, MB Bomb, Sheep Strike, Scales of Justice and Freeze. The more powerful weapons are on delay, with only the Homing Missile (and utilities and transport tools) being available on the first turn.

Rounds typically become more and more destructive as the more powerful weapons become unlocked. Worms usually die by drowning, as they start with 250 hit points and can become even more resilient by collecting the health crates, which provide 250hp each.

There are no rules.

The scheme is not currently supported by HostingBuddy.

History

The origin of the scheme is unknown but it has existed since 2006 at the latest, and was included in that year's Worm Olympics.
