Hysteria
From Worms Knowledge Base
Hysteria is a special scheme where quick thinking and reflexes are vital. Each turn only lasts for a meagre one second, in which the player must select and fire a weapon.
There is one weapon available on each of the function keys, and they all come in infinite supply, except for 1 mad cow. Each turn also has 10 seconds of 'hot seat' time before it, which gives the player time to think about their turn.
Sudden death occurs in 10 seconds. However, because the turns are only 1 second long, the timer will not decrease unless a player runs out of turn time, meaning that matches can last indefinately provided no player times out. When Sudden death occurs, the water rises very quickly.
Each player also has infinite jetpacks. These require that the player instantly drops a mine after equipping the jet pack, so he has 5 seconds of retreat time in which to guide his worm.
The original Hysteria scheme can be downloaded here. Please note that it is a Worms Armageddon scheme 2 file.
