The Napalm Strike is very similar to the Air Strike, except that the missles explode into fire that rains down onto the worms below.
Tactics
- Since worms can "Slide" on fire, this is a very useful weapon for making enemies slide down a slope into the water.
- Sometimes useful for blowing up Oil Drums to deal extra damage to the enemy, in addition to the fire released from the Napalm strike.
Criticisms, Problems and Weaknesses
- Fire is very wind sensitive, so be careful where you place the target.
- The fire covers a wide area, and it can be hard not to damage your own worms.
Tricks and glitches
- A Napalm Strike may be fired without aiming.
- It's possible to preselect the Napalm Strike target in mid-jump.
