A REDO, Last play through had a couple minutes missing from part 4 and I did better this run. Plus its in one video instead of four.
Pretty easy compared to the last two final missions from previous games. As long as you can get control of the bottom part of the map and keep the ooziums at bay its pretty straight forward especially with Jake's plains bonus and skills to beef up his offense. I had the AI control the secondary front since its less work. You don't seem to get penalize if you lose a crap ton of units on the secondary front.
Advance Wars Dual Strike - FINAL Mission 28 Means to an End S-Rank Walkthrough
i like how the co's can send soldier after soldier to die but when it comes to taking an old man who is destroying the world off of life support they hesitate lol
I was thinking the same thing
the soldiers are robots, that's the reason mech's have their name ._.
No, they're called mechs because they're mechanised infantry. Black Hole soldiers might be robots, but all other powers use humans.
@Al Draws it's because of "jAkeS tHE mAIN chARActEr anD hEs THe hERO" cliche, that's the reason why Andy is the main hero in AW1, the two other COs pretty much carry him but since he's mandatory he's still a "hero" which snowballed in AW2 WHERE HE DEFENITELY ISNT THE FIRST ONE TO BE USED BY EVERYONE.
@@butteredsalmonella Andy's amazing for any battle with Hawke though.
This mission just does NOT share the epic feeling of any of the other 3 final missions.
AW1 had you fighting Sturm in a true Final boss, Final Reveal, Epic Bloodbath of a mission.
AW2 had a pretty strict time limit that made you rush through an OP army to beat it.
DoR's setting was great for a final battle, Ragtag Army vs. The Last Fortress style. Also Caulder was on-par with Sturm imo.
Kitbodee Siwaphirunthep Dark Conflicts Final Missio was great? Hmmm mabye I shouldn't have paused my playthrough.
@@Rocky712_ there are reveals even in the final mission
@@Rocky712_ You should give it a try. I know the rest of the story is kinda lame and cliche and feels a little too much like Fire Emblem for a game set in a Post Apocalyptic setting, but Caulder himself is a fucking a beast. Not only is he overpowered as shit (for that game) with his bonuses but his backstory, which is only revealed in the final mission as you fight him, is actually kinda legit and pretty neat for AW, especially since it plays on a trope that's been in the series from the very beginning. Honestly, if he had a stupidly OP CO power, he'd be better than Sturm. Sadly, the AW team decided that they actually needed to somewhat balance the Final Boss of Days of Ruin, and decided to not give him a CO Power in order to make up for his Passive giving him +60% (or 50% one of the two) ATK/DEF and healing his nearby units 5 HP a turn.
Never found the Caulder fight hard. The AI in any of the destroy objective missions is always terrible, and that map has so many ways to easily spread out your forces to beat him early. It only builds alot of forces close to your primary forces. Can easily build lone bomber or tank on the sides to just casually approach weak zone and blast it.
@@Aleph3575 "somewhat balance the final boss of AW"
Nice run! I remember completing this mission for the first time and thinking just how easy it was compared to the final missions against Sturm in Advance Wars 1 & Black Hole Rising (particularly the latter). Was a great trip down memory lane watching this level being played again. Great upload.
for somehow i dont think it got harder or easier, maybe cuz we got older the moment we play nintendo ds
i played advance wars 1 & 2 way back 2012 at age 8 and some stuffs there are hard and i had to look for walkthrough in youtube, stuff got easier later i played dual strike this 2022 at age 18, maybe jt has got to do something with our way of thinking and analysis
@@lynxian-6097 the rest of us arent 18
final mission for every Advance Wars game
easiest: Dual Strike
in the middle: either Advance wars 1 or Advance Wars 2 Black Hole rising
Hardest: Days of Ruin
Hawke is the real leader of black hole army.
I supposed sturm are the leader of black hole
@@acommonstanduser3278 Yeah he is
@@acommonstanduser3278 but he’s dead
@@morenove5882 SURM?!
@@morenove5882 or andy .-.
16:37 sounds so great and menacing along with the sound of the letters hitting the screen
I like how, on mine, even though I missed the hidden mission for Black Bombs (Lash's Test), my AI on the secondary front could still produce them. I was like "Javier, dafuq are you doing?"
NGL wasn't the building with the map to the black bombs really off course? Behind a pipeline and everything. I remember having to spend 5 extra turns just to get to it.
Omg I just finished it and the same thing happened to me LOL
This is probably the easiest final mission in the serie. The hardest to me was the one in days of ruins/dark conflict.
Honestly that one is hard cause Caulder is a broken as fuck CO. His healing passive wouldn't be that bad if he didn't get free units all the time
I hated the mortar bombs so much
It’s not really caulder that makes it difficult, it’s the owls nest that makes it brutal
Days of ruin fm, its easy once you know how to beat it, it took me 6 day beat that mission, but yea this one its easier, if we dont count the optional rivals! mission, the hardes one it the final front mission
This was one of my beset childhood memory's
I wish i still had this game :(
Janne Korpela Get it on an emulator and play it.
Von Bolt needed 4 more factories by the Grand Oozium, 4 more Infantry on the southern cities, a Piperunner on each northern pipe and 8 Oozium surrounding your bases.
I've always hated this level. It's so easy. No thought required just go for the same basic strat of kneecapping the enemy economy. Just kill those infantry and von bolt has nothing.
It's just such a letdown
i can simply deploy a copter and lure all ooze lol and make way for my bombers
What emulator is this? and where did you download that emulator?
Drastic simulator is only 157 in the,playstore
Drastic is free now
0:40 UFF how many times i did hear that sound? I can't remember xD
what happens if the 2nd CO loses? is that a defeat condition or does von bolt get tag teamed with the city lady?
Defeat condition because the dark crystals must be destroyed in order to damage those slime cores in the main screen
What a wonderfull game!!!
I snapped my DS in two on this stage i couldnt beat it so i threw it at a bench lol.. Good times
Damn you must be a noob *back then* even in hard campaign this level a walk
Heheh, play the Deathray level on the normal campaign of AW2 and you'll see a tough level.
Two words, Kanbeis Error
@@fishyfishyfishy500akabs8 One word: *Rivals*
Il Centurione 2 words, send help
the top battle is very easy with rachel, i put +1 repair, + funds and direct and defense attack 2, My rachel never needed units and the 3 missile silos that she launch with her super power, shreed easyli the kindle units
I used Rachel in second front with +100G per city, +1 repair, +5 Com tower power and Fire Sale, and she was too good!
and i thought Sturm was evil
compared to von bolt, sturm is an angel
yet Sturm is way stronger. Van Bolt is a weakling compared to Sturm. LOL
Caulder was probably the worst.
While Von Bolt wanted to kill the world for his survival, Caulder wanted simply to experiment on people for his own entertainment.
i agree
They’re all really bad, how about that?
Strum conquered a lot of planets, so strum is the evilest among all of 3 principal villians
21:56 How did that tank get in the water?
Diego Guillen Albaiceta I think it went from the beach it was on to a beach tile next to the crystal and as it takes up the hole tile it got that effect.
There were two shore tiles. The tank didn't have to pass over a water tile.
It’s a shore. It does look like it’s on the water, though.
There is a shore
I was never able to complete this level!
The strategy is to destroy the Oozium in one go, if you attack it, don't even leave it at one hp, just plainly kill it so that it won't consume any of your units.
@@butteredsalmonella Thanks (:
@@Holidai I'm surprised you actually responded to my comment lmao
@@butteredsalmonella I literally ignored the oozium and steam rolled everything with bombers, anti-airs and infantry, it was so funny
I love the Advance Wars series but cmon... how is "dying old man in a hover chair with giant blob" supposed to beat Darth Hitler and his death ray?
Though i will say Von Bolt's theme is WAAAAAAAY more ominous then Sturm's.
I wish they kept this style instead of switching it for dark conflict. Dark conflict style just seems cheap all around except for the music which was superior
The co system seems neat though
Agree. Old AWs are better.
@@LordTyph THE CO SYSTEM IS TERRIBLE IN DAYS OF RUIN!! While Days of Ruin had a great story and great music, it’s gameplay is just. Too. COMPLEX!!
The black hole troops looks like among us characters
i beat it with rachel and jake, and i killed like 16 oozum, and i had 3 days left, i got an S and it was like 800 pts... but did hawke really die?
DAOR3194 no
Primson Yao but did von bolt diededed?
DAOR3194 most likely
In the ending, Kindle/Candy comments on how good he must have been to escape, or something like that.
@@Blakullawitch diededed
Why did you do this so slowly? Is there some comp manipulation I missed?
Dual Strike's writing is complete bull. It could have been so much better. I mean, it has a ton of units, COs, banging music, a skill progression system, a freakin' arcade mode, one helluva Hard Campaign... but its story holds it back so dang much.
IntSys, what the hell happened?
was that no$gba or desmume? both are lagging in mine.
45:23 what happen if you choose no?
Hawk will do this by himself
Don't know why you would take anyone other than Javier on the second front.
The ending is so fucking stupid. We will send thousands of soldiers to their death but hesitate kill a commanding officer who has lead millions of deaths. I love the cartoony style of the first three games but they can be so stupid.
I used Sami for the main front and Eagle for the second front.
why u use Price Sale skill, not is better Fire Sale?
I never knew if Ooziums can destroy air units...o.o
+Techn0taku can, every unit die for them
I see :P
thanks anyways.
Yea they can expand at any size by height, weigh, length, mass.
Once you make contact with it you're gonna be eaten by it like a Half life Barnacle then you disappear like dust.
Heck it can even eat up Landers and Blackboats that are in a coast
Wait, what skills are equipped onto Jess and Jake?
hawke died sadly whether u pick yes or no from jake's choice to kill von bolt though
?** He never died tho, he managed to survive and disappear with the chair
kinda funny that on hard this mission is easier, cause instead of 4 infantries, BH get 2 at the bottom
JerC I think its a running gag that final missions are easier on hard in AW
Primson Yao Final front allowed for more relaxed gamplay with the map change.
The redirected cannons, only one way for sturm to get out...
TBH on advance wars 2 the final mission was easier on hard mode as well the giant cannons were facing the other way allowing a single bomber destroy it and easily snipe the laser cannon
how to get black boat, I don't produce black boats on this game? please tell me...
On the first mission where enemy Black Boats appear (I think it's one of the first missions you go against Kindle, in the snow) you need to capture buildings until you get the map. Similarly to the Black Bomb and Piperunner, you gotta storm a lab to get the actual blueprints. Similarly to the other two missions, the unit you unlock in them has a major role, as there's a battleship that can destroy your only Lander, which would make the mission pretty much impossible, but it has 1 HP and the Black Boats are constantly healing it. You need to destroy the black boats and then the battleship itself in order to be able to win.
Always hated how easy Bolt was, even on hard mode. He should start with some kind of army.
Primson Yao Haha where the fuck was that air force in the last mission, Eagle?!
how did you do the video? it was good.
I think Sturm is stronger than Van Bolt... Because Sturm's Meteor will deal 8 damage while Van Bolt's lightning power only deal 3 damage....Also the troops of Sturm is really tough while the troops of Van Bolt is just too easy to destroy
I agree with in the fact sturm is stronger, however i feel your reason for you to think strum is stronger are wrong, let me explain, fristable, strum sp make 8 damage making he can take down that unit pretty easy, in other hand von bolt sp maybe only deal 3 hp, but the units hit by the lightning becomes unusable the next turn they are kinda death like with strum sp, so talking about sp both are mortal; you said its easier takedown von bolt unit but reality its strum units are have weaker defenses, so strum units are in fact easier to kill, strum units stats are 130/80, and in his sp they increase to 150/90, while von bolt units stats are 110/110, and in his sp they rise to 120/120, with that stats day to day von bolt has better stats, in sp have both have same raw stats
The unique feature that makes strum stronger than von bolt is strum the terrain doesnt affect the movement of his units
They should do a remake of this game for the switch!
What happen if you answer:"no" to kill the old men?
CYX Studioz Thanks
DAMMIT HAWKE
i think that path finder (plain cost =1 skill) is useless, i replace for direct damage1, so with direct damage2, u can deal bit more damage to that stupid gums...
hey, not is better option Max?
It's pretty useful for Recon and Rocket units.
@@LordTyph yeah, but useless for this mission
Why did lash betray her team?
Von Bolt ordered the murder of both Hawke AND Lash. So they deserted Black Hole army and were taken in by the Allied Nations.
@@L0V3V4MP1R3 why were their war crimes ignored all of a sudden.
@@karlsargant3985 no, they are called out in the next missions, Jake is the only whoteust them.
Anyway, they had no punishment at all, so... Yeah
@@karlsargant3985 I mean who ever gets punished for anything in AW really? Olaf (if you take his AW1 backstory as the factual one) and Grit were originally in Orange Star army and them both left for Blue Moon with seemingly no repercussions lmfao
@@karlsargant3985 because they helped the allied nations against Black Hole
Those are the ugliest soldier sprites I've seen. They look like jellybeans.
46:47
Just... this one quote. I'm sorry.
oh god, this mission............THOSE MEMORIES........... :c
How da hell do you equip skills??
go to the menu, select "CO" and click on the "Skills" option in that sub-menu
ah yes Urban Blight
What happens if you spare Von Bolt?
hawke kills him im pretty sure
lanelafisking Yeah.
Jake doesn't get to say anything then, and Hawke shoots the chair instead.
The Japanese version has much more direct dialogue where Van Bolt assumes Jake will shoot *him* (his enemy) rather than the chair, that's why he acted surprised when he missed him.
A disappointingly easy mission.
Easy i hardly needed to think for this mission and didn't even had to send units to the top.
why are the helicopters so low to the ground?
Allan Solis Because videogame.
Video Game logic
Because hover, not fly as a jet
U play on pc?
U da real mvp. Teach me sensei
can someone please teach me how to download this awesome game on android. im having trouble. please teach me step by step. thanks.
Shawn Babaay 1 year late but just search nbs emulator
This mission was way to easy... the southern front was to low.... Actually i like the northern front but Black holes army should earn more money what would make it more difficult to beat the "höllium".
And of course the second front is boring if the enemy army cant produce new units only heal the old ones ...
For me was the Monolite mission and the mission with the 2 mountain the most difficult ones
used jess in main fr8nt and javier in second those com towers are an advantage anyways i had 5 days left S rank but it was hard wtf got max score XD
Am i the only one who (IMHO) really hates dual strike?
Year old comment, but yeah Dual Strike is my least favorite advance wars. I feel like they added too many random units in the game and took away the feeling of the basic, but hard to master Advance Wars game.
almost EVERYONE hates DS.
I loved it :o But i hate days of ruin
Maybe... for me it would be a master piece if they didn't remove our most loved COs from the campaign(or Atleast made the story longer for the original Andy to fit) and made cleverly designed COs.
2 year old comment, I only ever grew up with Dual Strike and never heard of any of the other advanced wars until a couple of weeks ago, its been about 5 years since I last played and its one of my favorite childhood games
14 blobs dead... Jackpot!
🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫45:53
I don't like the fact hawke commits suicide T_T
Oh, yay :D
The 1st AW is the best by far.
I can't take any of it seriously. The characterisations were pretty one dimensional compared to 2, the AI was incredibly dumb and still had some super cheap setups and the story made most of the good guys look stupid.
Memes to an end.
Bangs 45:52
ahhh, hehehe
