Moles and Mole Squadron

I guess there is at least one way to use these for CPUs.

  • Moles - Can be used to attack a worm which otherwise digging is required to reach (and it needs 2 or more Blowtorches). Calculating the path of the mole shouldn't be difficult for the CPUs, since it walks like a mad cow and digs in a parabolic shape.
  • Mole Squadron - How about using it against a pile of worms that is hidden in the deep part of the map? They should be unreachable (or it needs 2 or more Blowtorches) otherwise, of course.

The CPU doesn't need to think whether the opponent would climb up the tunnel or not. --Explorer09 23:42, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I guess this could work, but the problems I have with them is 1) the CPU would need to consider if the mole would fall into a hole, and thus lose its digging ability, 2) it is indeed important if the moles would open up a hole to the top, enabling the enemy to climb up, and maybe even finish off a worm or two on the top. But maybe, these could be used as a game-ending weapon, that is, only using it if it would kill the opponent's last worm, so the second problem is eliminated. Balee 08:44, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
Good thinking. Thanks. --Explorer09 10:30, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
