I. Introduction & Current Status
--------------------------------
The purpose of this guide is document the fastest 300pt. S-Rank possible
for listed missions. It is recommended that players first strive to complete
documented missions without aid in order to build individual strategies.
Once sound tactical background has been gathered, players are encouraged to
compare strategies and challenge those documented within the guide.
As evidence to support listed records, day-by-day walkthroughs have
been included. However, performing and documenting the work that provides
information for such walkthroughs is a grueling and meticulous task -
meaning that progress of this guide will continue a snail's pace and may
possibly never be completed. Additionally, this guide will make an effort
to never deploy neotanks, as players may not have access to such units.
Concerning general layout, each mission has three sections: a documention
of the earliest day a mission can be completed with a 300pt. S-Rank (a.k.a.
the time to tie or, possibly, beat), a list of strategies that will help in
completing the mission with the "earliest perfect S-Rank," and a day-by-day
walkthrough that implements those strategies.
In addition to mission documentation, 'General Tips & Strategies' details
certain tactics and information often helpful in achieving a 300pt. S-Rank.
Any questions or concerns about the guide should be directed to the e-mail
address listed in the document header.

III. General Tips & Strategies
------------------------------
-Talk is boring-
If you'd like to skip all the incessant talking of the COs, use the Start
button instead of the A button.
-Don't know your CO's strengths and weaknesses? Find out!-
Instead of using the in-game menu for solely saving and ending your turn,
check out the "CO" and "Intel" options. The "CO" option specifically
explains the statuses of units, powers, and personailities for both
allied and enemy CO's during a mission. Additionally, if you're unsure
as to which units have been upgraded or degraded (in relation to firepower,
movement range, and attack range), scroll all the way down, past the CO
description, to find a chart detailing each unit's penalties and bonuses
for the chosen CO.
-Finding lab maps grants access to missions that, upon completion, will allow
deployment of neotanks-
Careful attention to game dialogue will often reveal missions in which
specific cities can be captured, allowing access to lab maps and, in
consequence, hidden missions.
Lab Map Missions:
Orange Star - Flak Attack (Campaign)/Andy's Time (Hard Campaign)
Blue Moon - Toy Box
Yellow Comet - Show Stopper
Green Earth - Sinking Feeling
Specific locations have not been listed to ensure enjoyment and fustration
of a hunt. Nevertheless, information on the specific locations can be found
elsewhere. Additionally, failure to capture the specific city in "Flak Attack"
is overlooked by the Campaign - the lab map and hidden mission will be
granted upon completion of "Flak Attack."
-Keep units from damage in direct combat by placing them next to enemy units
that cannot effectively attack-
This technique is useful in blocking the AI's advance through "choke points,"
such as bridges or passes between mountains. Once a direct-combat enemy unit
is adjacent to an allied unit, it will attack. However, the AI is unwilling to
lose or severely damage a unit in a skirmish that heavily favors the player.
Therefore, if an enemy unit cannot attack without taking severe damage, has
more than 2HP, and cannot join with another unit, the AI will command it to
wait, prohibiting a stronger enemy unit from taking its place and attacking.
Use this to your advantage to halt the AI's advance while amassing a force to
win the battle. Be wary, however, of long-range unit movements.
-Limit enemy deployment by sending crippled enemy units packing home-
As an alternative to using your own allied units for prohibiting deployment
from bases and other deployment structures, let enemy units that have
relatively low offense and defense capacities (such as infantry) with less
than 3HP return to repair and supply at deployment structures. Of course,
enemy cities provide an alternative to bases for enemy land units, so try
to limit the enemy's access to his own cities. Additionally, discern which
types of units (air, land, or sea) can be repaired. If there's an enemy
transport copter but no enemy airport to limit deployment from, go ahead
and finish it off when it's beneficial or convenient!
-Prohibit deployment of expensive enemy land units by cutting down
enemy infantry-
The AI strives to have a minimum of 5 infantry-class units. Therefore,
if the total of enemy infantry and mech units combined is less than 5,
enemy bases will be used to deploy infantry-class units. Exploit this by
eliminating enemy infantry with spare firepower to greatly decrease
the strength of the opposing army and the difficulty of the mission.
If possible, attack while the enemy army is still developing for
greater potential. (This is the underlying basis for the so-called "mech
flood" that players often experience when attempting to rout the AI in
deployment maps.)
-Perfect S-Rank Scoring-
The following, unfortunately, may become somewhat technical due to the
calculations for the power, technique, and speed aspects. The speed
aspect is detailed last as calculations for it are the most complex and
the required information is usually unknown to the player.
Power:
Minimum ratio - 10% or 1:10 (*:**)
* Maximum number of enemy units destroyed in a single day
** Net total of enemy units deployed on day of completion
(Important note: The "Net total..." (**) is solely denoted by the figure
representing enemy "Units" displayed by the "Status" chart, under the
"Intel" menu. Destruction of enemy units does not deduct from the net total.)
If the perfect power ratio of 1:10 is not met, then the floor of the
ratio percentage multiplied by 10 is taken to represent the power score.
A 1:15 ratio (approx. 6.67%) becomes a power score of 66 points.
On maps with enemy deployment structures (bases, ports, airports, and
factories), the power aspect potentially becomes more difficult to
obtain, as the enemy can theoretically keep increasing the net total by
deploying additional units. Thus, speed can become a determining factor
for power difficulty in deployment maps.
Additionally, perfect power can be achieved on any day - not neccessarily
the day of completion. However, to maintain perfect power throughout the
final day, the enemy net total must not exceed 10 times the maximum amount
of enemy units destroyed in a single day. If a maximum of 3 enemy units
destroyed in one day was performed, the net total of enemy units deployed
must not exceed 30 units upon the day of completion.
Although the enemy is limited to 50 units on the map at a specific time, the
AI is capable of deploying more than 50 units during the course of the
mission. Therefore, if the figure representing enemy "Units" reaches 94
(notwithstanding any destroyed units listed under enemy "Lost") by the day of
completion, a maximum of 10 enemy units must have been destroyed in a single
day sometime during the course of the mission in order to acheive perfect
power. Consequently, the mere action of routing the AI does not necessarily
guarantee perfect power - dependence lies on how the enemy was routed.
Concerning War Room, in missions that have multiple enemies, the net total
is the combined sum of the net totals for each individual enemy. In addition,
enemy units must be physically destroyed by allied units in order to affect
scoring - enemy units destroyed by the capturing of an enemy HQ do not count
towards power.
In closing, only enemy units affect the power aspect - Black Hole structures
(Black Cannons, minicannons, lasers, etc.) have no bearing on power
whatsoever.
Technique:
Maximum ratio - 20% or 2:10 (*:**) [Campaign/Hard Campaign]
- 10% or 1:10 (*:**) [War Room]
* Total number of allied units destroyed
** Net total of allied units deployed on day of completion
If the perfect technique ratio is surpassed, then the floor percentage
deducted from 120 (for Campaign modes) or 110 (for War Room) is taken
to represent the technique score. A 2:7 ratio (approx. 28.5%) becomes
a technique score of 92 points for Campaign and 82 points for War Room.
The "Status" chart contains both totals for allied units for quick
reference ("Lost":"Units").
Problems with technique can be countered by deploying additional units
using non-essential deployment structures and extras funds during the
course of the mission or on the day of completion in order to raise the
net total.
A joined unit, if destroyed, will count as only a single addition to
"Lost" while, towards the net total, it will still count as however
many units were used to comprise the joined unit. This makes it possible
to rout or be routed with the "Lost" total less than the "Units" total
for the same army.
As a final note on power and technique, the allied army that is given
the first move on any specific day will be the army that determines
these two aspects. However, concerning missions located in Black Hole
territory, the army that completes the mission objective is deemed the
scoring army.
Speed:
Maximum Limit - Mission dependent
If the perfect speed limit is exceeded for a specific mission, deductions
from the speed score are dependent on the speed limit for that mission and
the total number of days over the limit. The 'base deduction value' for any
mission will always be 100 divided by 3 times the speed limit. To calculate
a speed score of less than 100 for a mission, multiply the total number of
days exceeding the limit by the 'base deduction value' for that mission and
then take the floor of that product and deduct it from 100. Completing the
mission on or later than 4 times its speed limit will result in a speed
score of 0.
If the mission "Cleanup" (with a limit of 8 days and a 'base deduction
value' of approx. 4.167) is completed on Day 15, the attempt will result
in a speed score of 71. If completed on Day 32 or later, the attempt will
yield 0 points for the speed score.
The speed calculations are next to useless as the 'base deduction value'
cannot be determined without information of the maximum limit or multiple
trials for a specific mission. Therefore, there is ideally no other way
to improve speed scores than to improve in skill and strategy.
Finally, Advance Wars 2 has done away with any mission rank below a C-Rank.
The following details the new rank stratifications.
Strategy: Use APC to blunt attack and lure infantry into range of your own

--The Hunt's End-- (Sonja)
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 11 Days
Strategy: Deploy sole infantry to capture neutral propteries while heading
east towards enemy land forces; deploy battleship to head towards pipe
seam, destroying northeasternmost minicannon of island quartet while en
route before positioning to destroy pipe seam; deploy adequate force of
tanks and anti-airs to destroy invading infantry and copters; (Sonja must
be used as she is able to most cost efficiently destroy Black Hole
structures (with battleships) using initial resources given; any CO may be
used for supplemental allied army as Sonja needs little if any aid;
however, Sami is recommended as she is able to provided deviatory aid
while attracting as little unwanted attention as possible due to increased
lander movement should Sonja's battleship somehow come under danger of
being attacked by deployed enemy rockets on Day 10; however, often times,
Yellow Comet needs no assistance, so supplemental army may simply
accumulate funds and watch on sidelines; complete this mission before
completing "Factory Blues" on Blue Moon continent to receive additional
dialogue about aiding in freedom of Blue Moon and obtain ability to use
any Yellow Comet CO (in addition to Orange Star COs) to lead supplemental
army in "Factory Blues")
Day 1:

infantry inside placing next to Yellow Comet battleship and within
potential enemy rocket range on Day 10; Sami is alotted day delay
due to increased lander movement)

units, capture neutral base with infantry and head anti-air 1 space north
then 4 east; otherwise, destroy battle copter with anti-air and place
infantry behind anti-air to begin capturing next day (walkthrough assumes
former case for remainder; however, latter case will still follow
closely - with only day delay in capturing of neutral base and deployment
of anti-air from specified base, resulting in one less able unit to
attack on Day 11; however, final deployed force will still be able to
secure power score)

--Navy Vs. Air--
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 10 Days
Strategy: Advance lander loaded with anti-air and infantry accompanied by
all available cruisers towards enemy HQ to destroy enemy air force and
capture neutral airport nearest enemy HQ then enemy HQ itself; deploy at
least two fighters to aid anti-air in protecting capturing infantry from
enemy attack; destroy and attack as few enemy units as possible after
eliminating original enemy air force to prevent use of Hawke's CO power;
(enemy movement requirements after Day 5 are rather exacting, especially
Days 6 and 7; saving at and loading from beginning of Day 4 will provide
most possible options should enemy movement requirements not be met;
however, luck may be tried to save at beginning of each satisfied day to
save reloading time, despite more limited enemy movement possibility
and chance of satisfying requirements; completion can still be obtained
after Day 10 should allied infantry be attacked or Black Storm used if
use of both fighters and anti-air in preventing attack is efficient enough)
Day 1:
-Load anti-air then western infantry into lander and move 1 space south,
5 east, then 1 north
-Move westernmost cruiser 6 spaces east
-Place southernmost cruiser 2 spaces north then 5 east
-Head final cruiser 4 spaces east then 3 north
-Move remaining infantry all the way north
-Deploy infantry from both bases
Day 2:
-Capture both western neutral bases with both southern infantry
-Head final infantry as far north as possible
-Move southernmost cruiser 6 spaces north then 1 east
-Place reamining southernmost cruiser 5 spaces north then 2 east
-Head lander 4 spaces north then 3 east

-Move westernmost cruiser all the way east
-Place final cruiser 4 spaces east then 3 south
-Move lander as far east as possible
-Finish capture of both neutral bases
-Capture nearest neutral port with remaining infantry
Day 4:
-Finish capture of neutral port
-Destroy westernmost accessible battle copter with westernmost
cruiser from north
-Destroy easternmost accessible battle copter with remaining westernmost
cruiser from north
-Move lander 5 spaces east then 1 south and drop anti-air south and
infantry west
-Destory southernmost accessible battle copter with final cruiser from
north
Day 5:
-(Note: It is recommended, but not necessary, that not one of the allied
cruisers be attacked to limit excessive addition to Hawke's CO
power bar)
-Destroy/attack all remaining battle copters with apt cruisers from either
north or east (any damaged allied cruiser should attack adjacent damaged
enemy battle copter)
-Capture southern neutral airport with easternmost infantry
-Place anti-air as far east along bridge as possible
Day 6:
-(Note: Enemy APC must not have moved; additionally, walkthrough assumes
that enemy artillery has moved 1 space east and 1 space north and
continues to move generally north subsequent days; however, if enemy
artillery resides east of enemy HQ, completion is still somewhat
feasible (more so if all cruisers are undamaged) while any other
position, especially enemy HQ itself, is highly prohibitive)
-Move anti-air 1 space east then 2 north
-Finish capture of airport
-If any enemy battle copter remains, destroy with farthest possible cruiser
-Head all (remaining) cruisers as far east as possible, staying outside
range of enemy artillery and allowing enemy transport copter passage
for 1 space south and 5 west

-(Note: Enemy recon must not move onto enemy HQ)
-Load easternmost infantry into lander
-Deploy fighter from airport
-Destroy transport copter with any undamaged cruiser

copter deployed from northern airport
-Head anti-air onto enemy HQ, attacking any adjacent infantry if present
Day 8:
-Move lander 4 spaces east onto nearby shoal and drop south
-If enemy battle copter advanced south towards allied cruisers, destroy
with any available cruiser
-Defend and blockade infantry from attack with fighter and anti-air
movements (assuming enemy infantry was attacked previous day,
placing allied fighter 1 space south then 7 east and attacking any
adjacent enemy infantry with allied anti-air from enemy HQ will often
suffice if enemy recon resides north of enemy HQ while, if enemy
recon resides south of enemy HQ, moving allied fighter 6 spaces
east then 3 south and attacking any enemy infantry adjacent allied
infantry with allied anti-air will usually be sufficient; more
generally, any enemy infantry directly adjacent allied infantry or
enemy HQ should be attacked with allied anti-air, allied anti-air
should remain on enemy HQ if possible - especially if enemy recon
resides north of enemy HQ, while allied fighter should assist in
blockading - restricting enemy recon access back across bridge if
enemy recon resides south of enemy HQ)
-Deploy fighter from airport
Day 9:
-Capture enemy HQ
-Blockade capturing infantry from enemy attack with both fighters and
anti-air (moving eastern allied fighter directly south of eastern
enemy base, placing allied anti-air directly south of western enemy
base and not attacking, and heading final fighter onto road between
eastern allied fighter and anti-air will usually suffice)
-Deploy any desired offensive unit from airport
Day 10:
-Destroy any desired units with available units
-Finish capture of enemy HQ

--Hot Pursuit-- (Grit)
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 10 Days
Strategy: Use rockets to destroy minicannons necessary to clear path to Black
Cannons; deploy artillery and rockets with primary CO to move towards
territory of secondary CO to destroy entire western enemy naval force in
single day; deploy medium tanks with both secondary and tertiary COs to
draw Black Cannon fire away from approaching allied rockets and aid in
destruction of necessary and miscellany minicannons; deploy artillery with
secondary CO to draw western battleship fire away from primary CO's
artillery force; (Grit must act as primary CO as increased indirect range
allows for less movement within minicannon and Black Cannon range and
increased chances of destroying entire western naval force on same day;
Jess and Max are suggested for secondary and tertiary CO selections due to
respective increased artillery and medium tank firepower; however, choice
of secondary COs is rather unrestricted - with only constraint that if
Kanbei is to lead, he must lead tertiary army; use of Sami or Sensei as
secondary CO and Kanbei as tertiary necessitate slight modifications in
movement and deployment directions (due to respective decreased land
direct firepower and increased deployment costs), which have been appended
throughout; while four artillery and sole rockets unit are used to ensure
destruction of western enemy naval force, often only two artillery and
single rockets unit can easily suffice in completing assigned task)

Day 5:
--(Grit)--
-(Note: It is recommended that western enemy battleship attacked artillery
of secondary army previous day and continue to do so for remainder of
mission as opposed to repositioning itself; remainder of walkthrough
makes this assumption; however, at very least, no enemy western naval
unit must be out of range of Grit's artillery positioned on allied port
of secondary army on both Days 9 and 10; attainment of Grit's CO Power
made add some leeway, but attainment is not necessarily guaranteed; it

--Final Front-- (Colin)
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 9 Days
Strategy: Send bomber from central allied army north to destroy Deathray
while dodging Deathray fire; deploy air force of battle copters and
fighter to secure power requirement; supplemental armies must deploy at
least one bomber and infantry each in order to aid in damaging units,
drawing Black Cannon fire, and defending central allied army bomber with
missle launches against threatening enemy units; (Colin must act as central
primary CO as only he is able to deploy a bomber by Day 3, allowing for
maneuverability around Deathray fire; although Max and Eagle are defined
for supplemental armies, all COs are able to perform; however, if Kanbei is

V. Hard Campaign
----------------
The Hard Campaign of Advance Wars 2 is very different from the Advanced
Campaign of the original Advance Wars. While many missions have additional,
more powerful enemy units (as in Advanced Campaign of Advance Wars), the
Hard Campaign of Advance Wars 2 often gives the player additional, more
powerful units to combat those of the enemy - instead of downgrading
allied units. Also different from Advanced Campaign, map layouts of
Campaign missions are often subject to rearrangement and change in Hard
Campaign. Complete missions have also been discarded and others inserted,
specifically those on the Orange Star continent. Finally, the Power and
Technique categories can no longer be taken for granted.

--Drake's Dilemma--
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 8 Days
Strategy: Head two battleships down to take down Black Cannons using reefs
as cover and hide remaining battleships in reefs of strategic locations

attack a unit with a battleship to completely fill CO Power bar;
use Typhoon and destroy two units near Kanbei's territory with a couple of
Drake's land units and three others with battleships while making sure

VI. War Room
------------
--Spann Island--
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 5 Days (6-day walkthrough)
Strategy: Deploy recon and infantry on Day 1; move east and deploy APC on
Day 2; move east, attack infantry, and deploy recon on Day 3; load and
drop infantry so enemy HQ is within potential movement range on Day 4;
start capture of HQ by Day 5 and prevent hostile units from attacking
capturing infantry; finish capture by Day 6; (this strategy is potentially
viable for any CO other than Kanbei, because of unit cost; however, Grit's
recon units may not be able to do enough while those with above average
recon units may deter required enemy attack for Day 5; additionally,
Sami's capturing abilities allow enemy requirements to be less strict
for Day 5; finally, with such universal capability, luck and saving
before executing allied movement will be a necessary requirement; this
specific walkthrough is recommended more to a degree for general
completion; however, 5-day walkthrough follows afterward)
Day 1:
-Deploy recon from northern base
-Deploy infantry from eastern base
Day 2:
-Move recon northeast along road
-Capture neutral city east of northern base with infantry

-Place APC onto road 3 spaces north of infantry
-Deploy recon from northern base
Day 4:
-(Note: Enemy APC must move south, just north of northern bridge)
-Finish infantry with recon from east (infantry must be killed)
-Load infantry into APC, head north of northern neutral city, and
drop onto neutral city

Strategy: Assault enemy territory with infantry and APC units; deploy
infantry and APC pairs through Day 4 (deploying mechanized infantry
on Day 2); head towards enemy territory throughout mission; destroy
rockets with mech and infantry with infantry pair; (Sami is best
suited for this infantry assault as her capture abilities allow her
leeway with enemy attacks; however, if no enemy unit is situated so
that enemy HQ is within attack range by the beginning of Day 7,
Sensei is a comparable CO; Sami and Sensei are the only two who can

Strategy: Raid enemy HQ with infantry and transport copter pair (Sensei
must deploy an additional infantry and transport copter pair to act
as decoy); deploy two battle copters as soon as possible after
completing raiding preparations to secure power score; (Sensei is
able to complete this mission due to special reaction of AI towards
upgraded infantry with only one guarding unit, while Sami must strain
her capturing capabilities to maximum potential in order speed up
power aspect preparations due to decreased direct firepower; the
scenarios required by this walkthrough are rather improbable; thus, it
is not recommended that this be used for general use; however, if it
is to be used, Sensei is recommend over Sami for easier completion)

as far south along road as possible while remaining deployed unit must
be loaded into lander and moved south; additionally, enemy rockets must
have been deployed from eastern base)

--Nest Egg-- (Lash)
Earliest Perfect S-Rank Time: 9 Days
Strategy: Deploy tank and APC loaded with infantry to infiltrate enemy HQ from
south; continously deploy tanks near edge of allied territory to eliminate
two enemy units for power rating; (while the brute force and universal
movement of Sturm play effect little upon the outcome of the mission, his
upgraded defense makes him the best candidate; nevertheless, Lash is well
a suited second; when increased firepower is needed, her abilities allow
her units to surpass any other CO in terms of attack, abling her to
neutralize difficult situations that would otherwise put any other CO in
a quandry; other COs who have bonuses favoring direct land units are
also favored)
Day 1:
-Deploy infantry from both bases

-Deploy tank from easternmost base
Day 7:
-(Note: Enemy anti-air must not move onto enemy city three spaces
south of enemy HQ)
-Attack southernmost infantry with western tank from west
-Deploy tank from easternmost base
-(Note: Walkthrough assumes that attack range of enemy artillery does not
threaten easternmost enemy base; otherwise, attack artillery with tank
from enemy base 1 space south and 1 west of enemy HQ instead of
executing directed movement order for tank directly following)
-Head tank 3 spaces north, 1 east, then 2 north onto easternmost enemy base
-Place APC 2 spaces of northern tank and drop onto bridge south of tank
Day 8:
-(Note: Enemy rockets must be deployed as opposed to tank and recon near

on Day 2, moving it up on Day 3 to destroy pipe seam by Day 5, and a second
on Day 5 to aid in fulfilling power requirement; deploy APC to tranport
sole infantry to enemy HQ and lure two enemy infantry into attack range of
artillery units; (Grit can complete the mission in 7 days - given highly
conducive enemy deployments and actions; however, only an imperfect S-Rank
is possible as movement to finish capture enemy HQ by Day 7 does not decoy
enough enemy units into Grit's range of attack)

VII. Miscellaneous
------------------
-Have fun with Japanese in 'Design Room - Map'-
When selecting 'Design Room - Map' (pressing the A button), hold down the
L and R buttons. Instead of a random map output, the map will contain three
Japanese kanji characters - outlined by mountain and forest terrain. To see
the characters more clearly save the map in any open file slot and view the
compact preview at the "Load" screen. For those desiring a translation,
"Nintendo" is the message being displayed. This can also be done in the
original Advance Wars by executing the same process while selecting its
map-designing counterpart, 'Design Maps.'
-Receive commendation from Nell in 'Design Room - Map'-
After the initialization of a random map, execute any illegal action
between 50 to 60 times (approx. 55 times, if not exactly) by rapidly tapping
the A button. Illegal actions are denoted when the cursor contains an
'X' symbol and include placing brigdes over land, naval units on land, land
units in the sea, vehicles on mountains or rivers, or pipe seams without
properly adjoining pipes. Once the required action is fulfilled, Nell will
comment on the feat. As with the previous 'Design Room - Map' activity, this
can also be done in the 'Design Maps' of the original Advance Wars.
-"Advance Wars"/"Game Boy Wars Advance" CO Name Correlation-
With "Game Boy Wars Advance 1+2" released, the Japanese names of the CO's
and their powers have been are now known. The following is a list of the
names pertaining to the CO's and their powers given in North American release
of the "Advance Wars" series and their Japanese analogs.
Nell/Catherine
Lucky Star/Miracle Chance
Lady Luck/Red Star Dream
Hachi/Hachi
Barter/Motorcycle Show Spirit
Merchant Union/Wasshoi Festa
***Additional notes concerning the Japanese names***
--The Santa Claus personification of Olaf is largely what drives his Japanese
analog name of Whip.
--Specifically, Itto Ryodan is a sword technique form of the Toyama Ryu iaido
(a martial arts style), literally meaning "cut in two with one stroke."
Colloquially, the meaning of the phrase is equivalent "to cut the (Gordian)
knot" - i.e. to take decisive or drastic measure
--A bonze is a Buddhist priest
--There is a noticeably stronger animal theme for the Japanese Black Hole
characters - i.e. Cat & Kong
--The name of Catherine's (Nell's) super CO power, Red Star Dream, is a
reference to her army affiliation, as the Orange Star army is named
the Red Star army in "Game Boy Wars Advance 1+2"
--Wasshoi Festa is likely a reference the any number of performing arts
festivals, possibly Wasshoi! and its other numerous names
(www.wasshoi.org); otherwise, it may be interpreted literally as
an '"I've Come" festival'; nevertheless, both of Hachi's Japanese
CO power names evoke a theme of gathering and joyous spirit
