The worm has turned, gentlemen!
The Soldier

The Lumbricus Lid, pronounced \ˈləm-brə-kəs\, is a promotional headwear item for the Soldier. It is a webbed helmet adorned with Worms-style eyebrows and a Worms drawing. It also includes the "Holy Hand Grenade" which replaces the Soldier's default frag grenades on his chest.

This hat was awarded to those players who purchased Worms Reloaded before September 2, 2010.

Performing the Kamikaze taunt with this hat equipped will play the "Hallelujah" sound from Worms Reloaded, originally from Handel's Template:W, and display a unique kill icon.
