Advance Wars is a war strategy game for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance system. The player and an opponent take turns moving troops and attacking. Each can have a total of 50 troops at a time and can move all of them in a turn. To create more troops, the player needs money which is obtained by capturing cities, factories, airports, and seaports. A player can build ground units at factories, sea units at seaports, and air units at airports and can heal damaged units by having them wait a turn in the appropriate base. Ground units can also be healed at headquarters and cities.
Advance Wars has 10 Commanding Officers, or COs. These are:
- Andy (no weaknesses or advantages, can repair units)
- Max (strong direct combat units, weak artillery)
- Sami (strong infantry, weaker vehicles)
- Olaf (good in snow, bad in rain)
- Grit (strong artillery, weak direct combat units)
- Drake (strong ships, weak air units)
- Eagle (strong air units, weak ships)
- Kanbei (strong units, but expensive)
- Sonja (long range of vision, but has bad luck)
- Sturm (strong attacks, lower movement costs, weak in snow)
- Nell (very good luck, no weaknesses)
There are five countries in the game, these are Orange Star, Blue Moon, Green Earth, Yellow Comet and Black Hole.
Black Hole is the real enemy in the game but this is not apparent until the end. Advance Wars begins with Orange Star warring with Blue Moon. The war efforts shift around the world until they finally reach Sturm at Black Hole.
