re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Umm sorry to say this but in the first game all the countries were at war with Orange Star and it sorta reminded me of WW2.

OS vs BM would be America vs Russia in the Cold War, OS vs GE would be America vs Nazi Europe WW2 and OS vs YC would be America vs Vietnam in the Vietnam War.

A lot of pro Americanism going off for me but I liked how it seemed to be a reference to all those wars and when I finally reached Sturm, I thought he looked kinda like Hitler's second in command as a Nazi in a gasmask, a cap and a sort of cloak/cape.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Actually we're all devided on wether it's actually a mask or his face, it dos hohever look like he's wearing a gasmask, even you have to admit it.

In this one though he becomes Darth Vader, except maybe even more awesome.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

well yes, ive heard it before, but the "mask" just dont look like a gas mask to me. I train with nerve toxin masks everyday, you know, real gas masks.... and theres no contour straps on it, it seems freakin welded to his face, so maybe you could assuyme that hes has it perm. connected but i just wont be convinced its a gas mask, unless like 900 people post to tell me other wise.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

That's your side of the debate.

But Sturm is an alien so he could be wearing a mask of some sort of alien design, then again it could be his real face, who knows?

It's mainly because Sturm's an alien that makes this into a debate, I noticed every time his units won a fight his eyes glowed and he spat out a load of smoke, maybe the mask protects his essence like Anubis in Stargate SG1.

Damn, I gotta get the answers from IS.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Yeah. The Smoke comes out when he is happy or whatever in battle animation.

It would be real, but now AW1/2/DS. It's a bit too unrealistic. Von Bolt is like 1000 years old which is impossible for a human. DoR seems perfect, the Caulder thing makes it slightly unbelievable.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Orange Star = America
Blue Moon = Russia
Green Earth = Germany
Yellow Comet = Japan

Enough said.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

yes i know that those countries are like the world war 2 ones, and god, green earths soldier even look like nazis!
but i like that

but there could be other countries, or even if those countries were accually called their real names, instead of blue moon, call it Russia, then you can put presidents and stuff, but if you do tis it becomes more of a RTS sort of thing.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Yes.

Same with DoR. Do you have Days of Ruin, Silent nightmare?

Because there's a character called Greyfield/Sigismundo who is so similar to Hitler or Stalin, even the looks. He'd do well to get it no GE to control the Nazi's as you implied.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

No i dont have days of ruin, sadly.

but since you do, are the country comparisons still the same or are they less? Do the troops look the same?

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Actually every army in DC/DOR seems to be the Orange Star army, only gray.

BH in this installment do look like either, inept alien invaders with the infantry, awesome for the vehicles though, or they look kinda like Desert Strike forces prepared for chemical weapons to be deployed at any moment.

Hazmats FTW.

re: Adavance Wars... with real countries.

Their troops look more realistic; and their names are more realistic. The sad thing is there's no GE, but thanks to that you can use BH Army in Design Maps, you can choose map size from 5x5 to 30x30, the surplus is 99 instead of 60.

Rubinelle/Brenner's Wolves/12th Battalion
Lazuria
New Rubinelle Army
Intelligent Defense Systems

Rubinelle and Lazuria are the only good ones really.
