Guide to Advance Wars: Mission 4, "It's War!" Learn the best strategies to defeat Olaf, capture the HQ, and achieve a perfect S-Rank.
Walkthrough
- 1Day 1: On the northern front, use your tank and anti-air to take down Olaf's northern tank. Move your other northern units towards the northeast. Down south, push your medium tank east to engage their tank. Advance your remaining southern units eastward, but be mindful of the range of enemy rockets and artillery to avoid taking unnecessary damage. Position your artillery so it can cover your tanks from enemy threats.
- 2Day 2: Continue the southern assault by moving your medium tank to attack their rocket, your tank to hit their anti-air, and your mech to engage their artillery. On the northern front, use your tank to weaken their artillery and start capturing the northern cities with your mech. Remember to consult the Unit Guide for optimal unit matchups. Your vehicles will be your fastest units for advancing. Don't forget to activate Andy's CO Power to heal units after they've engaged in combat. Crucially, keep your units out of the firing and movement range of enemy rockets and medium tanks until you have enough units positioned to counter-attack on the following turn.
Tips
- Andy's CO Power heals 2 HP per turn, making it invaluable for sustaining your units throughout the battle.
- You have two primary win conditions: capture the HQ with a loaded Infantry unit or eliminate all enemy units on the map. Choose the strategy that best suits your playstyle and the current battlefield situation.
- Pay close attention to enemy unit ranges, especially rockets and medium tanks, to avoid taking heavy damage.
- Utilize your faster vehicle units for rapid advances and flanking maneuvers.
- Consider the unit matchups detailed in the Unit Guide to gain an advantage in combat.
