Master Mission 8M: Sniper! (Max) in Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp with this comprehensive walkthrough. Learn strategies for Fog of War, defeating Grit, and achieving a Perfect S-Rank in 7 days.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    On Turn 1, move your recon 5 squares down and 1 square right to reveal hidden infantry. Move your tank down the road to uncover another tank. Use your battle copter to weaken this tank. Advance your other units down the road.
  2. 2
    On Day 2, reveal the rocket in the forest south of your starting position and attack it.
  3. 3
    A recon unit will move towards you; use your direct units to destroy it.
  4. 4
    Move your recon to the right to find a rocket located on a city. You cannot attack this rocket with land units. Attack it from the top or left, but be aware that a missile to the north will destroy your battle copter. Locate the missile near or at the blue city in the center-top of the map before attacking the rocket directly, or strike the rocket from the bottom or right.
  5. 5
    Grit will have an anti-air and artillery unit that must be cleared before advancing land units to the HQ. Use your tanks, which have superior movement and an advantage against these units, to destroy them.
  6. 6
    To capture the HQ, you can transport an infantry unit using a battle copter or transport copter. Be wary of the artillery unit positioned just east of the HQ.
  7. 7
    If aiming for a full KO, deploy a battle copter to the northeast island to eliminate the remaining artillery.
