Talk:Frisbee
From Worms Knowledge Base
But it might not be unique enough to get in - it is similar in too many ways to the Longbow. Also, the Longbow has more capabilities than to just prod the worm it strikes, and it inflicts damage. In all, the Longbow is the better weapon.
I think the Frisbee would be more unique if it could be thrown from worm to worm within a your team (possibly including allies). If the weapon hits a friendly worm, control should be passed to that worm for the next throw to be performed. The timer should continue to count down while a worm is holding the Frisbee but remain frozen while in the air.
Even if it is possible to make the Frisbee passing work, there could be problems when the Frisbee hits 2 worms (one allied, one axis) sharing space to the pixel. Would the Frisbee be caught, deal damage or both; if damage was dealt would it hurt both worms? Also with the timer being interrupted like this, in extreme cases of millisecond-to-spare shots, would hitting an enemy cause the timer to run out, nullifying any retreat time?
I have thought about this idea a bit. I like it! :)
