WR1-00: Overview

Welcome to the War Room!

To many first-time players, when the War Room first unlocks, it’s not clear exactly what it is. But there isn’t really a whole lot to it; it’s just a series of extra maps that you can play on for score and to earn coins for Battle Maps. There’s no plot to it and completing War Room maps won’t unlock anything. Completing all 20 maps, regardless of rank, will turn the Records entry under the Stats menu gold; S-Ranking all 20 maps will turn the War Room entry on the menu gold. Those are the only rewards you’ll get, aside from the coins and whatever sense of accomplishment it gives you.

If you’re up for the challenge, then read on.

Guide Goals

Our goals for this guide are to explain to you how to get a perfect score of 999 on all maps with any available CO. This is actually possible, though very difficult in some cases. In general, this will take the form of day-to-day guides for a quick HQ capture, but some maps are too complex for that.

C00 – Overview

Campaign is the main mode in the Nintendo Wars series from Advance Wars on. This is essentially the story mode, you go through the missions presented to you in order, and the COs available to you are determined by the plot.

Guide Goals

Our goals for this guide are to explain to you how to get a perfect score of 999 on all missions with any available CO. Because AW1’s AI is highly predictable and most Campaign missions require quick clears for full Speed points, these will be detailed day-to-day guides for most of the missions.

Mr. Yamamoto

Alliance: Freelance
Theme: Track 7
Skill Level:
Memo: A legendary General. Commands an elite army.
AI Type: Balanced Offence & Defence
Elite – All units start at Rank 2, even when not in Level up Mode.
Comments:

A very powerful CO. Has the advantage of having better troops than everyone else. With two rank ups on all of his troops, he has at minimum 140% firepower for all units, which can only increase in experience mode. Well balanced AI and terrifying stats mean that facing this AI is a challenge to end all challenges.

Billy Gates

Alliance: Freelance
Theme: Track 6
Skill Level:
Memo: Son of a rich father. He possesses ample war funds and loves to play wargames.
AI Type: Balanced Offence & Defence
Gains an extra 10,000G per Day
Comments:

A very rich CO. A ridiculous funds advantage over the opponent means that Billy can quite easily build better level units compared to the opposition, and that he can quite easily dominate small maps, while being a dangerous foe in larger maps. Makes a good opponent if you want a challenge.

Caroline

Alliance: Freelance
Theme: Track 5
Skill Level:
Memo: Can attack with great strength for no known reason. She is nicknamed the “Lucky Girl”.
AI Type: Balanced Offence & Defence
Lucky – Has the potential to do extra bonus damage in combat.
Comments:

Caroline’s the first of the super COs. Possessing very good luck, she will often inflict a lot of extra damage on the troops that she attacks. Especially when on the defence, you might want to think twice before engaging her in battle. A very tough opponent to face, especially as she has a very good AI, plus her awesome luck abilities as well. A challenging opponent.

Hetler

Alliance: Yellow Comet
Theme: Track 4
Skill Level:
Memo: “Stand strong for the People” is his motto. Will defend his units, but his attacking tactics are weak.
AI Type: Defensive with unit spam.
None
Comments:

The commander of Yellow Comet. This AI brings a new meaning to mech spam. While not very aggressive at capturing land and attacking you, taking the base away from this AI is an absolute nightmare. Despite the low skill level, be prepared for a long, drawn out battle when you face Hetler.

Rojenski

Alliance: Blue Moon
Theme: Track 2
Skill Level:
Memo: A normal commander, but he often makes a lot of mistakes.
AI Type: Balanced, but with poor judgment.
None
Comments:

Blue Moon’s Commanding officer. Bitter rival of Yuan, but not anywhere near his equal. Rojenski will be the easiest AI you will face, and makes a lot of exploitable mistakes for you to take advantage of.
