Advance Wars: Dual Strike/Units: Difference between revisions

{{All Game Nav|game=Advance Wars: Dual Strike}}

;About Primary Weapon: This is the name of the primary weapon.  They always have a limited amount of ammo.  Primary weapons will either be direct or indirect.  If direct, it can only fire on units adjacent to it.  However, it can move and then fire on a unit after moving, assuming it could see the unit before it moved. Also, direct units can counter attack when attacked by another direct unit, though at reduced strength from the damage they have taken.  Indirect units cannot fire the turn they move.  However, they can fire without fear of counterattack.  While they have a long range, all indirect units have a minimum range that they cannot fire into.  Sandstorms are a weather condition new to Advance Wars: Dual Strike.  They will reduce the maximum range of indirects by 1, but not to the point of having no targets.  So, if Max has an artillery (Range of 2-2) and a Sandstorm strikes, the range stays as 2-2.

Infantry are cheap units, have some of the weakest firepower, and lowest movement ranges in the entire game and yet they are the most important units in the game. They capture properties, which give you funds everyday and heal units.  Properties all have 20 capture points, when you capture them with infantry, they will remove a number of them equal to the infantry's hitpoints. Once the points reach 0, the property becoems yours.

If a terrain under given conditions has x movement cost, it will take x movement points to pass through it.  If a unit does not have enough movement points to pay the movement cost, then it cannot move.  Every movement point used requires a unit of fuel except when it is snowing.  Then the fuel cost is doubled.  If a unit does not have enough fuel, then it cannot move.<br>

In Advance Wars, you will notice that defense is measured by stars.  A star stands for a 10% defense bonus.  Thus 1 star means you subtract 10% of the damage, 2 stars subtracts 20% of the damage, and so on.  Air units do not get the benefit of defensive stars, however.  IMPORTANT:  If a unit is injured, it does not receive full benefit from terrain defense.  Rather, a unit receives defense equal to [its HP]/10 * defense.  So, a full life unit will receive 10/10, or all, of the defense from the terrain.  A unit at 5 HP will receive 5/10, or half, of the defense from the terrain.<br>

If you control certain properties, by capturing it with a mech or infantry, then it will bring you money.  All properties that bring funds, will bring the same amount.  The standard is 1000 funds per day per property.  However, in VS mode and Link mode that value can be changed.<br>

Certain properties repair certain units.  The standard repair is 2 HP dmg. Also, if the unit is at 95% health, and thus 10 HP, it will max it to 100% health.  This can only be noticed if animations are turned on.  Another effect is that these properties will also resupply units of the given type.<br>

This is just the in game description of the terrain.<br>

*'''Aircraft Carriers''' - The APC/Rocket of the sea.  They can carry two flying units at a time, as well as refuel them and supply them.  Handy for aircrafts that use up fuel quickly, or getting crafts through areas where they may be shot down by missiles.  They can also shoot missiles at aircrafts.

*'''Oozium''' - Strong defenses, and instantly kills anything in it moves over.  However, it can only move one space at a time, and, lacking any armament, cannot counterattack.  Just don't park anything next to it unless you're sure you can kill it.

*'''Infantry''' - Your basic soldier unit. Can capture bases, but damaged units take longer to completly capture a base.
