While the group escapes, Brenner stays behind and hides in an abandoned city to buy them some time. Distraught by the ruthless execution of the Lazurian commander, Forsythe, Brenner and the 12th Battalion break the Lazurian prisoners out of an NRA internment camp before they are also executed. Brenner reluctantly sides with Greyfield, leader of the NRA, and advances on the Lazurian force, eventually defeating them at Fort Lazuria. One year after the meteor strikes, the 12th Battalion comes into contact with the New Rubinelle Army, and learns of the war raging between the Lazurian Army and the NRA. Will later dubs her Isabella, and she becomes a vital part of the battalion as they put an end to the Beast's reign of terror. During a search, Will discovers a mysterious amnesiac who does not remember her own name, but somehow knows detailed military information. Will is rescued by Brenner and Lin of Rubinelle's 12th Battalion (nicknamed 'Brenner's Wolves'), and takes on the group's cause of saving as many survivors of the meteor strikes as possible. Scattered survivors pick through the wreckage, and the remnants of several military superpowers patrol the ravaged landscape, some factions protecting the innocent while the others prey upon them.įollowing the disaster, which obliterated much of the warring nations of Rubinelle and Lazuria, a young cadet from the Rubinelle military academy named Will escapes the ruins of the academy's mess hall and is confronted by The Beast, a former sergeant gone rogue who leads a small band of raiders. 75% of mankind has been killed off following devastating meteor strikes, which have destroyed much of civilization and caused a massive dust cloud to blot out the sun. The plot of Days of Ruin is considerably darker than, and unrelated to, the plots of previous games. The Carrier damage is overall, since it has a different weapon. The Cruiser damage listed is the amount of damage it does to a Fighter. The Fighter damage listed is the amount of damage it does to a Bomber. * The attack comparison is usually compared to how much damage it would normally do to a Tank or B-Copter. Direct attack instead of indirect attack. Soldier Storage 2 > 1.Ĭan build up to 4 seaplanes. Can now build temp ports for air and sea.Ĭomparable in stats to previous Med Tank. The following units have been received changes:įormerly APC. War Tank (statistically identical to the previous game's Medium Tank, but appears like a MegaTank).

When units join together, the highest unit level is applied. The maximum level a unit can be is eteran (Days of Ruin) or ce (Dark Conflict).

DoR allows players to level up a unit each time your unit destroys another unit.

The only CO that gains a defensive boost is Waylon.

No CO gains an attack increase when using their power.Unlike previous games, CO Powers are primarily used for strategical purposes such as increased range and vision.None of the CO's have a stat decreasing weakness.Tabitha is the only CO that does not increase the meter for any counterattack damage.Forsythe and Caulder do not have a CO Bar nor COP.The meter increases as the units in the CO Zone inflict damage. If the unit that the CO boarded is destroyed in battle or the CO Power was used, the bar resets to 0 and the player must redeploy a CO if the unit was destroyed. If the COP is used, the CO Zone becomes the entire map for 1 turn and the bar resets back to 0 after the turn. When all 12 bars are filled, CO Zone increases by 2 and you can use your CO Power (COP) at any time. When 6 bars are filled, CO Zone increases by 1. Each bar holds 5 HP for a maximum of 60 HP. In addition, any unit in the CO Zone gains a +10 increase in Defense and Attack.

New to the CO system is a limited CO zone surrounding the unit that gains the specified stat boost based on the CO.

The next turn, the unit can select CO to board a CO on that unit, but have to pay half the unit's value to board. The unit must be either pre-deployed with the CO already boarded or the unit must wait in their own HQ, Factory, Airport, or Seaport for one day.

CO Abilities are not automatically implemented at start.

The CO System has been altered dramatically. Unlike previous installments, the developers kept the game in a more balanced and competitive environment. The gameplay, while keeping the same formula as the previous Advance Wars games, differs greatly.
