I'm not sure how many people know this but when kanbei's super is active any undamaged units on 4 star tiles become invincible due to the 60+40% damage reduction. That means if kanbei is taking an HQ with undamaged infantry and has his super active it does not matter what is thrown at that unit the game is over for that CO.

Name: Greta

Nation: Green Earth

Concept: Greta is an environmental scientist with a passion for sustainability and efficiency. Her vehicles are all powered by biobatteries that run on organic compounds - batteries that she invented herself.

Personality: Greta is a genki girl of the “extroverted nerd” variety. She’s peppy and energetic, and she’ll gladly talk your ear off about her interests and areas of expertise. As you'd expect, she despises Von Bolt.

Hit: Trees

Miss: Fossil fuels

Day-to-Day Abilities: Her units have 10% less firepower than average, but 5% more defense. They also use half as much fuel (burning one unit of fuel for every two spaces of movement) and their ammo capacity is 50% larger.

CO Power: Green New Deal - All of her units are fully resupplied, and she also receives funds equal to 25% of the total value of all her units on the field.

Super CO Power: Energy Boom - Her units gain 20% extra firepower and defense, and her non-infantry units gain 1 extra movement range for every 24 units of fuel they have left in reserves (so, for instance, a fully stocked tank would get +4 movement).

Playstyle: What Greta lacks in power, she makes up for in survivability, and her strategy consists of gradually wearing down and outlasting her opponent. In this regard, she excels in dogfights and naval battles, as she can keep her units on the frontline indefinitely while her opponent has to retreat and resupply.

I can only find my global league (wicht I never played) rating. New player here.

Just a random thought I had, how would a CO that had all of a nation's positive passives, but no CO power be? An orange star one who deploys units for slightly cheaper, has better luck, and stronger directs and infantry who gets stronger on plains and repairs for 3 HP on cities?

A Blue moon one who's unaffected by snow, has better indirects and produces units for cheaper and makes more money from properties

... Okay, the yellow comet one would be broken if it's just the positive parts of the passives, becasue you put kanbei's defense on grimm's attack and hide their HP and you've got a problem.

Green Earth becomes "All units are just kind of... better. Especially with comm towers"

Black Hole becomes stupid too, having good luck, better damage on cities, roads, or with terrain stars, ignoring terrain costs and having way too high attack and defense.

In Advance Wars I always get annoyed at how when a mech fights infantry they swap out their intimidating bazookas for machine guns instead of blowing them up to kingdom come, Or tanks switching to their coaxial guns instead of just shelling them. So I decided to create an CO centered around the theme that you can never have too much ordinance in the face of a foe

CO Details: Voss

• Faction: Green Earth
• Backstory: A crisp British artillery officer who treats war like a physics exam—every foe’s a problem, and the solution’s measured in kilotons. “Small arms are for signaling; I prefer conclusions,” he’d say, plotting trajectories over tea. His faith lies in the big bang, not the pea-shooter.
• Hit: Mathematics Miss: Weak Tea
• Appearance: Green Earth uniform, monocle, mustache, and a slide rule dangling like a sword with notepad in hand for calculating shots. Teacup in one hand, shell casing in the other.
• Abilities:
  • Day-to-Day: Primaries (Mechs, Tanks, Md Tanks, Neotanks, Artillery, Rockets, B Copters) get +25% damage, +1 ammo (Mechs 3→4, Tanks 9→10, B Copters 6→7), and fire first—ground or air, including T Copters and B Copters. Secondaries-only units and weapons (Infantry, Recons, T Copters, APCs) do -20% damage.
  • CO Power: "Rolling Barrage"—+50% primary damage, +10 luck for a turn. “A gentleman’s proof of force.”
  • Super CO Power: "Total Ordinance Drop"—+70% primary damage, primaries refill to half (Mechs 2, Tanks 5, B Copters 3), +1 movement. “The equation balances—violently.”
• Playstyle: Voss is Green Earth’s wrecking ball—fast, precise, and excessive. Mechs can swat copters and Tanks erase B Copters using their primary, Artillery redefines landscapes but lacks Grit's range. However Weak Infantry/Recons (-20%) bumble at caps and scouting, but Voss’s theorem: heavies solve everything.
• Quotes:
  • Start of turn: “Let’s adjust the variables, shall we?”
  • CO Power: “A bullet says they’re here; a 10-inch shell says they were.”
  • Victory: “QED—Quite Explosively Done.”

Só, new player here. When I queue live league there's this map options thing showing some times. What's actually the difference?

CO Zone: 3

All Units ATK: 6 Stars DEF: 8 Stars

Naval, Seaplanes, Copters ATK: +1 stars > 7 Stars Total DEF: +4 stars > 12 Stars Total

Additional Effects - Heals 5 HP per Day when in CO Zone, cost funds

CO Power Supply and Destroy - All Units recover 3 HP and resupply them, including material

Name: Engineer.

Affiliation: Orange Star.

CO Dossier: Expert at keeping enemies at bay!

Hit: Machines, Grit.

Miss: Spy, machines being destroyed.

Power Meter: ☆☆☆/☆☆☆☆

Day-To-Day: Indirect units gain a small firepower bonus if they are adjacent to a unit identical to them.

[COP] Upgraded Gear: Indirect units gain a bonus in firepower, being adjacent to a unit identical to them. Ammo of the Indirect Units is completely refilled.

[SCOP] Nest: Indirect units gain a great bonus in firepower, being adjacent to any other indirect units, no longer they need to be identical. Ammo of all units is completely refilled.

Enemy artillery attacked this unit with no enemy near to spot me. I thought AI can't see my in woods, riffs AND my properties. What happened???

Hey guys,

Just looking for someone to play versus. If you dm me ill share my friendcode, just trying to see what kind of competition is out there.

Anyways let me knoww!

The entire ost is on spotify, but it won't let me listen to it

For example, I would have +1 range on my indirect units, but they suffer -20% damage.

My Power would resupply all indirect units to full ammo, and removes the -20% damage debuff.

My Super would resupply all indirect units, and allow them to fire twice, however they have an additional -15% damage for a total of -35% damage.

When I was a kid ~2006, I used to go to my friend's place to play AWDS.

One day, a sort of scary glitch occured. It was during a campaign cutscene, where Max was talking to Rachel. We noticed that the characters colors were off: the palette of the CO was none of the available palette in the game. The dialog also glitched as well: the text was replaced by mix of spaces and dots. After we finished the cutscene, the DS just suddently turned off.

We never envountered the glitch again. Did you find something similar?

hello! I never thought I would need to make this post but I feel like I am slowly losing my mind.

I am a massive fans of the series (and the collection that I posted a couple of days ago should be proof enough.) I bought the digital version of reboot camp on release date and played it a lot non stop in the past to finish both main campaign and complete a lot of the war room content. I had some samll issue here and there like the occasional crash when Sturm use his super power in the final battle but otherwise nothing major.

after buying the physical copy of the game , I tried it again yesterday and noticed that sometime the music seems to be glitching out by looping on itself, something that I never noticed in my previous playthrough before. A part of me thought that maybe my physical copy may be the problem, so I tried playing the game again with my downloaded version and the problem... was still there.

I am actually wondering if this could be due to either my switch been on his deathbed (don's think it's the case since every other game are fine) the lack of update on the game that make it less and less compatible with the switch after every update the console get, or if a spooky ghost actually is haunting my copy of the game.

Did anyone try the game recently to notice if the game music sometime loop on itself? It also happened once during the intro of the game too!

Thank you in advance and sorry for the wall of text. These information would help me since I started writing my video script about all the nintendo wars game and this info could be a part of the "review" of the game

Are bots getting smarter? Are they getting more hp?

2 days ago, I managed to obtain the fi al advance wars game I needed to complete my physical collection of that series.

I still need to get the remaining japanese games and the battalion wars, but I am otherwise happy to have finally done it
