There's different movement ranges for each unit, and certain restrictions. The terrain's defence bonus are river and roads (0), grass (1), forest (2), city (3) mountain (4). Ground units gain bonuses from the terrain. Air and sea units crash and are destroyed. Ground Units cannot move when they run out of fuel. The Sea units can only move on water, and you have: the ranged Battleship the stealthy Submarine that is effective against Battleships and Transport ships and the anti-air and anti-Submarine Cruiser. Air units still block ground unit's movement which is a bit illogical. Fighters specifically can only attack (and are very strong against) other Air units. The Air units have great movement range and are effective against land units except direct anti-air units. Artillery and Rockets attack ground (or sea) units, whereas Missiles are specifically anti-air. Artillery, Rockets, and Missiles are ranged units they have a minimum and maximum range and deal high damage. Anti-Air are very effective against air units but also effective against Infantry. APCs transport infantry and also refuel and resupply adjacent units. Small tanks are good against infantry, and all vehicles except the Medium Tank. Recons are basically weak vehicles which are strong against infantry but weak against tanks but have really high movement range and visibility (on maps with Fog of War).

Mechs do more damage to tanks but are still inherently weak because they are still infantry. Infantry can capture buildings but are only really good against other infantry.

For the land units, there's Infantry, Mech (infantry with rocket launchers), Recon, Small Tank, Large Tank, APC, Anti-Air, Artillery, Rockets, and Missiles. At first, you just have the land units to get used the mechanics. There's land, air and sea units but not all are available on each mission. You win by wiping out all units or capturing the Headquarters. In the main campaign, most of the missions involve a fixed set of units, but some missions allow you to create more by spending money that you accumulate each turn. It is a turn-based strategy on a grid, with similarities to the same developer's Fire Emblem series. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, meanwhile, is set to launch for the Switch on May 12.The Gameboy Advance may be limited but with great gameplay mechanics and functional graphics, Advance Wars is up there with the best games on the system. Then again, the company has also been known to drop new information and updates through social media, so it’s possible that pre-orders going live for upcoming first party titles is something it simply ends up announcing on Twitter.Īdvance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp has been a long time coming and has been delayed multiple times, though Nintendo has insisted that it is still in the pipeline. Nintendo traditionally holds Direct presentations in the early weeks of every year to give deeper looks at its upcoming titles, and many will be hoping that another one of those is around the corner. Games receiving updated or new NSUIDs on the eShop usually aligns with pre-orders going live for them, and that, as you might imagine, as what speculation suggests is at work here as well. A handful of major first party games have, of course, been announced for the Switch for 2023, and it seems updates on some of them could be coming soon.Īs reported by a user on Famiboards, the eShop pages of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp were recently updated, with both games being given new NSUIDs. With the first month of 2023 nearly over, we’re beginning to take a closer look at what Nintendo has in store for the Switch over the coming months, especially with reports claiming that the Japanese company is looking to keep is console active and alive for at least another year.
