| Unlockable: Advance Campaign | 100% | |
| If you're already quite good at Advance Wars and you want an extra challenge, try begining an Advance Campaign. To get it, you need to 1st buy the "Advance Campaign" under Battle Maps (this will become available either after completing the Campaign Mode once). Once you have bought it (it only costs a buck), start a new Campaign while holding down the Select button. The words Advance Campaign will appear in the upper left corner, the computer AI will be tougher and some of the units in the following missions will be stronger. For example, instead of regular tanks, you often face MD Tanks, your opponent has more units, and you less, and so on. But in return, you will get much more cash for winning missions. | ||
