Comet Dodging Race Wee

Comet Dodging Race Wee (CDRW in worms terminology) is a scheme that despite the name, it is not really a race, it's a battle, probably the main objects of this scheme are not comets, they are probably meteors (from the weapon Armageddon, see Meteor shower for the phenomenum it is probably inspired), and the worms cannot really dodge them, because they cannot move (anchor/artillery mode).
The scheme is entirely luck-based and involves no skill or strategy, as there is nothing that players can do to improve their chances of survival - except that there is Low Gravity in this scheme, so it might make a difference depending on the situation. For example, worms at higher pixels might hit other far worms with Low Gravity, or they can skim on the water higher/longer. Low gravity is still almost insignificant.
Players place their worms at pixels in an otherwise empty map and, each turn, activate the Armageddon weapon. The last team to survive wins the game.
There are no rules.
The scheme is not currently supported by HostingBuddy.
