The Mail Strike, also known as Postal Strike in Worms Terminology, is an strike-type super weapon that drops letters from a plane. It is very similar to the Air Strike, except that the bombs float gently downward and are highly susceptible to wind.
Tips and tactics
- As this weapon uses the mouse cursor, it can be used to point something on the map to other players.
Tricks and glitches
- A Mail Strike may be fired without aiming.
- It's possible to preselect the Mail Strike target in mid-jump.
Trivia
The English description of the weapon in Worms Armageddon alludes to the working class: "Mail Strike - Ultimate tool of the disgruntled postal worker."
