Don't give up. I gave the old AW a spin again, and it is the hardest one I have ever played. Even the Normal Campaign stumped me. I'll say the most frustrating missions are the one against Grit or Sonja.

3 things...1)Who is Sonja, 2) how do you change your main CO's name, as mine is Kyle, and i can't get rid of it, and 3) I checked the Advanced wars series, and I don't think Days of Ruin would be that good. I mean, where are the original characters? other than that, i think it could be cool.

Can't change your name, at least to my knowledge.
Sonja is Emperor Kanbei's daughter. She is part of 3 secret missions that will only be available if you can defeat Kanbei within the correct amount of days. Her talent is better vision in Fog of War, her troops do not display HP, and she does extra damage in return when she receives an attack.
Kanbei must be defeated in 6 days for his first mission, then 8 days for the second, and within 10 days for his last mission.

Not much longer. Once you get Sami, you're pretty close.

I checked the Advanced wars series, and I don't think Days of Ruin would be that good. I mean, where are the original characters? other than that, i think it could be cool. For one, there isn't an S on the end of "Advance," and for another, the fact that Days of Ruin didn't give into the purists has nothing to do with its quality. You cannot have a more serious style of gameplay, one which I enjoy a great deal more than the cartoony one, with fools like Andy. "What's an airport?" "Let's have a BBQ!" "Fog of War is like a game of hide and seek, right?" It humiliates the English language...as does Jake in Dual Strike. Furthermore, that doesn't have to do with the gameplay which is the most important aspect. Now, don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the cartoony graphic style, but it just doesn't work for a game like Days of Ruin and the characters in the earlier games are what get to me. I enjoy all of the Blue Moon, Green Earth, and Yellow Comet COs, but Red Star makes me want to vomit...namely, for quotes like what I posted above!

Just a comment. I am new to the AW games, and i don't have as close a connection to the games as you do, sorry.

But, I do have to say Orange Star is an embarrassment to America. You have Max obviously on steroids, Jake using outdated slang, and Andy is just plain incompetent. Strangely enough, only Orange Star's lady COs have any brains.

Jake being a complete fool. He believes that saying "Word" is the height of coolness.

Strangely enough, only Orange Star's lady COs have any brains. Sorry, I was thinking about the original Famicom Wars when I wrote that, and the only two armies in that game were Blue Moon and Red Star. But, indeed, Orange Star is a pretty big insult to America. I don't know if it's meant to be politically incorrect, but Battalion Wars portrays nearly all of the nations quite well without coming off as rude. Of course, everybody is a stereotype, but the fact that everyone is kinda keeps it from coming off wrong. I guess it doesn't really matter, but Andy and Jake heading the nation that represents America, pretty much, is a diss to our nation. D: Edit: Jake is in Dual Strike, just so you know. I have to admit, though, after playing it extensively, I kinda like Black Hole Rising more.

At least Nell is intelligent. Surprisingly, Max is also smart in the first AW.
I also like Black Hole Rising the most. I don't know why the Megatank was even invented; in my opinion, its the most worthless unit ever created. It's slow and is easily brought down by B-copters and ranged units.
