Advance Wars Mission 6: Air Ace! walkthrough. Protect your transport copter and capture the HQ by Day 6 for an S-rank.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    On Turn 1, use your anti-air to destroy the battle copter and your medium tank to damage Eagle's tank.
  2. 2
    Keep your transport copter alive; it is essential for bringing an infantry or mech to the HQ.
  3. 3
    Move your missile and anti-air units east to intercept incoming fighters.
  4. 4
    Advance your other units eastward and then northward towards the HQ.
  5. 5
    Protect the transport copter by surrounding it with your land units on all four sides to prevent direct fighter attacks.
  6. 6
    There is no airport on the map to heal the transport copter's HP.
  7. 7
    Take out the bomber with a missile or anti-aircraft unit; otherwise, it will destroy any infantry landed on the HQ in one hit.
  8. 8
    Lure the bomber into range with a unit other than your anti-aircraft, then destroy it with your anti-aircraft.
  9. 9
    Immediately after the bomber is down, use the transport copter to land an infantry on the HQ, positioning the transport copter just north of it.
  10. 10
    This positioning allows the transport copter to absorb any tank strikes intended for the HQ-capturing infantry.
  11. 11
    Capture the HQ by Day 6 to achieve an S-rank victory.
Tips
  • The unit you must keep alive is your transport copter.
  • Surround the transport copter with your own land units on all four sides to prevent Eagle's fighter from attacking it directly.
  • Land an infantry on the HQ with the transport copter immediately north of it so that the transport copter absorbs tank strikes that may target the HQ-capturing infantry.
