Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising, known in Japan as Game Boy Wars Advance 2, is the second game in the Advance Wars series. It introduces new COs, units, and features to the tactical gameplay.
Plot: The Black Hole army, under Sturm, invades Macro Land with new weapons and four new COs: Lash, Adder, Hawke, and Flak. The Allied Nations must unite to repel the invasion. The campaign culminates in a battle against Sturm and his Death Ray, a weapon that threatens to destroy Wars World. Hawke ultimately betrays and kills Sturm, taking over leadership of Black Hole.
New Unit: The Neotank, developed by Black Hole, is the strongest tank in the game.
New Features:
- Silos: Throwable rockets that deal 3 damage to all units in a two-square radius, usable once per battle.
- Pipelines and Pipe seams: Impenetrable pipes that block movement, with destructible seams allowing passage.
- Black Hole Weapons: Unique weapons used by the Black Hole army, such as the Black Cannon, which the player cannot use.
New COs and CO Powers: New commanders join the fight, including Hachi (Orange Star), Colin (Blue Moon), Sensei (Yellow Comet), Jess (Green Earth), and Hawke, Lash, Adder, and Flak (Black Hole). All COs now have a normal CO Power and a Super CO Power, with Sturm only having a Super CO Power.
