What kind of effect would cause a ripple on sprites?

Hey guys,

I'm looking for an effect that would cause everything to warp/bend/ripple.

What I'm trying to achieve is if I fire a missile, I'd like part of my tank, the ground, the wall, whatever's in range to briefly warp to give the effect of a powerful blast, perhaps the same thing can occur when the missile hits something.

What would give me this effect?

Thanks!

Wouldn't one of the regular warp effects work for that, listed under 'Distortion'?
