Plop War is a scheme where worms have unlimited health and can only be killed by drowning. It is played on a specially-designed map that is indestructible, so players must find creative ways to blast worms into the water.

The map is usually designed with a series of ribbon-like structures around the edge of the map and sometimes scattered throughout. The ribbons are typically simple in form, but can be intricate. The gaps between the ribbons provide the method by which the worms can be drowned.
A large selection of weapons is provided, including several of the more powerful weapons such as the Holy Hand Grenade and Banana Bomb, and several super weapons such as the Super Banana, Ming Vase, Salvation Army and Magic Bullet. All weapons have increased power settings (5 stars) are provided in unlimited supply.
Some of these weapons are made even more powerful by the weapon upgrades; for the Grenade, Banana, Shotgun and Longbow.
Only one transport tool is provided; the Ninja Rope, with a quantity of 2. As worms are anchored, this is the only way that worms can get around the map.
The Baseball Bat is provided for occasions where a close-combat move is required.
The scheme is supported by HostingBuddy.
Rules
- Change weapons every turn - Players must not use the same weapon twice in a row. When playing in teams, players must not use the weapon last used by their team.
Strategy
- Avoid the top - Players should avoid hiding on the top of the map, otherwise they will become an easy target for the Banana Bomb or similar weapons.
History
The origin of the scheme is unknown, but dates back to 2006 at the latest, when the earliest known map for this scheme was uploaded to the Worms Map Database in August of that year.
The scheme has featured consistently in competitions, appearing in the Worm Olympics every year from 2010 to 2016, and in cups and tournaments hosted on The Ultimate Site between 2012 and 2015.
