'''Advance Wars: Days of Ruin''' (titled '''Advance Wars: Dark Conflict''' in Europe and Australia) is a [[turn-based strategy]] video game for the [[Nintendo DS]] handheld game console. It is the fourth and latest installment in the {{c|Advance Wars}} series and was released in North America on January 21, [[2008]]; in Europe on January 25, 2008; and in Australia on February 21, 2008. It was planned for release in Japan as {{nihongo|'''Famicom Wars DS: The Lost Light'''|ファミコンウォーズDS 失われた光|Famicon Wōzu DS Ushinawareta Hikari}} but this version was cancelled after several delays. The game is preceded by [[Advance Wars: Dual Strike]], [[Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising]], and [[Advance Wars]].


'''Advance Wars: Days of Ruin''' ('''Advance Wars: Dark Conflict''' in Europe and '''Famicom Wars DS 2''' in Japan) is the second [[Category:Advance Wars|Advance Wars]] game for the [[Nintendo DS]] developed by [[Intelligent Systems]]. It follows one of the most popular [[Turn-based strategy]] line of games for the [[Nintendo DS]].  
Advance Wars: Days of Ruin was intended to have a darker atmosphere and more serious tone in contrast to the previous installments in the series, and features a new storyline independent of the previous games. Set amidst a post-apocalyptic world, the story focuses on the Rubinelle 12th Battalion, one of the surviving remnants of the military of the country of Rubinelle, which had been locked in a century-long war with its rival, Lazuria, prior to a devastating global meteor shower. In the aftermath, the Battalion devotes itself to saving any other survivors of the disaster, despite the shattered nations renewing their war against each other and an uncurable disease ravaging both sides. Meanwhile, a mysterious faction with unknown motives takes advantage of the destruction and pushes both sides deeper into conflict from behind the scenes.


'''New features to the game from pervious versions include:'''
A terrible asteroid strike has left the planet devastated. Few survivors remain and the world is in chaos. Toxic clouds are choking out the food supply. New diseases strike without warning. Terror runs rampant as people do whatever necessary for their own survival.
*Completely new cast of 12 new [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/COs|COs]] in the game.
*Overhaul of CO system: [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/COs|COs]] can be deployed on the field and have a CO zone.
*7 new [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Units|units]], 3 modified [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Units|units]] and 16 returning [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Units|units]].
*New [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Terrain|terrain]] types making a total of 26 [[Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Terrain|terrain]] types.
*Wi-Fi capable for online battling and trading of maps.


'''Note: There are regional differences between the North American, European Japanese releases of the game including names and dialogue. Whenever possible all names are shown. The storyline, gameplay and features are all identical in all versions.'''
