Learn how to unleash Max's devastating offensive power and boosted unit movement with Max Force and Max Blast in Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising. Your ultimate guide!

Max is all about raw power and aggressive offense! He's a loyal warrior who really dislikes any kind of sneaky tactics. If you like to charge headfirst into the enemy and overwhelm them with sheer force, Max is definitely your kind of CO.

Max's Strengths & Weaknesses:

  • Hit: Weight training (This is a fun flavor text, basically means he's strong!)
  • Miss: Studying (He's not one for complex plans or waiting around.)
  • Skill: Max excels with direct-combat units, boosting their firepower. However, his indirect-combat units are a bit weaker and have limited range.

CO Powers:

  • Max Force: This power gives a slight boost to the firepower of your direct-combat units, and crucially, increases their movement by 1 space. This lets you close the distance faster and apply more pressure.
  • Max Blast: His Super CO Power is a significant upgrade. Direct-combat units get a substantial firepower boost, and their movement increases by a massive 2 spaces! This allows for incredibly aggressive pushes and can break enemy lines wide open.

Unit Performance with Max:

Max's abilities really shine with his direct-combat units. Here's a quick rundown of how he affects them:

As you can see, Max's direct-combat units like Tanks, Md Tanks, Neotanks, Fighters, Bombers, and B-copters get a significant attack boost. Plus, with his CO Powers, their increased movement means you can bring that extra firepower to bear much sooner. Just be mindful that his indirect units like Artillery and Rockets don't get any love and might even suffer a slight penalty.
