Master Advance Wars Mission 11: Reclamation! Learn the best strategy for Colin vs. Lash, focusing on early infantry rushes and seizing key factories and airports.

Alright, welcome to Mission 11: Reclamation! This is your first mission with Colin, and he's a bit of a unique CO. His units might be a little weaker individually, but they're cheaper, which means you can build more of them. This is going to be your main advantage here, especially early on. Lash, your opponent, likes to spam APCs and infantry, and she'll go for the airports pretty quickly to get her own air force going. We need to beat her at her own game, but with more units!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Early Game Infantry Rush: The absolute first thing you want to do is churn out infantry. Lash's strategy involves a lot of infantry too, so we're going to overwhelm her with sheer numbers before she can get her tanks and copters rolling.
  2. 2
    Seize the Neutral Factory: Don't bother building units from your main HQ bases. They're too far away. Instead, send your starting units, likely infantry, to capture that neutral factory ASAP. Having a closer production point is crucial for keeping the pressure on Lash.
  3. 3
    Capture the Middle Airport: Once you've got a foothold, push towards and capture the middle airport. This is super important because it lets you build cheap Battle Copters. These copters are fantastic for finishing off units that your ground troops can't one-shot, and they're great for air superiority.
  4. 4
    Build Tanks and Copters: As the mission progresses, you'll want to start adding some Medium Tanks to your production line. These are excellent for taking down Lash's Anti-Airs and her own tanks. Don't forget to keep building those Battle Copters alongside them to support your ground assault and deal with any aerial threats.
Tips
  • Colin's CO Power, 'Hyper Charge', makes his units stronger for a short time. Use it when you're pushing hard or need to break through a tough spot.
  • Keep an eye on Lash's income. If she's building a lot of expensive units, you might be able to out-produce her even with slightly weaker units.
  • Don't underestimate the power of sheer numbers. Sometimes just having more units on the field can win you the game, especially with Colin's cheaper units.

Completing this mission unlocks the next stage and potentially new units or abilities depending on your performance.
