Advance Wars Mission 8A: Max's Folly walkthrough. Learn how to defeat Grit and his enhanced range within 6 days for a perfect S-Rank.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You must prevent Grit's two infantry units from capturing your HQ within the 6-day limit to achieve an S-Rank.
  2. 2
    Max's artillery and rocket units have a limited range of -1. Focus on moving your tanks forward to attack.
  3. 3
    Before advancing your tanks, try to check Grit's enhanced rocket and artillery range to minimize incoming barrages. You will lose some tanks, but this preserves enough for continued advancement.
  4. 4
    You cannot fully avoid Grit's barrage, especially when he uses his Sharp Shooter CO Power, but preserving units is key.
  5. 5
    Prioritize destroying the two rockets and three artillery units located west of your HQ.
  6. 6
    Also, eliminate the two infantry units that are advancing on your HQ.
  7. 7
    After clearing these threats, hang back and avoid Grit's remaining rockets and artillery to survive the 6-day period and secure victory.
Tips
  • Focus on moving tanks up to attack, accepting some losses to preserve your force.
  • Try to mitigate damage from Grit's enhanced range before committing your tanks.
  • Be aware that Grit's Sharp Shooter CO Power will still hit your units.
  • Wipe out the specific enemy units mentioned to reduce incoming fire.
