The creators of advance wars were butthurt about the allies beating Japan in ww2 so they made kanbei a S rank tier CO and Nell a stereotypical blonde woman who only wins by luck. Then they made orange star's senior CO a Japanese American war veteran as if to say "See? Can't even win without Japanese of your own."
Wouldn't be supprised. They don't teach their youth about what Japan was up to in the first half of the 20th century. "And for no reason at all, NO REASON AT ALL, the United States nuked us twice."
One issue though. Kanbei is officially an idiot. An honorable idiot, but an idiot nontheless. Meanwhile, Nell does have a decent head on her shoulders despite the lucky power.
@@Teknanam TBF the Emperor being there mostly for morale purposes and looking honorable is how even Japan itself portrays his involvement in WW2. Nell also reminds me a little of Nimitz, who was a competent Admiral but also had the great luck of 1. passing up on the post for Pearl Harbor in 1941 and thus was not in command when the raid happened; and 2. betting it all on Midway and scoring big due to hilarious hijinks involving US planes being repeatedly at the right place for the wrong reasons.
"this time i believe i've finally created an unwinnable challenge. i dont think theres a way for you to beat it this time." HE SAID IT, HE SAID THE THING!! POGGERS
Honestly? With the HQ cap getting pulled off quite early, i think it's pretty winnable. You have, what, 4 properties to park unit's on, including 1 HQ? That's an awful lot of tankyness, against a rather limited enemy force, once you pick off a few tanks and artillery. With Proper targeting and positioning, and some good luck, could be able to just sorta win.
The only way one of these challenges is going to be unbeatable is when the player starts as Grimm, with a regular tank stuck in range of a hostile mega tank, and a base within range of 2 hostile bombers.
I've got a fun challenge if anyone would like to try... Go to the AW2 pre-deployed maps and choose Grid Assault. I chose one CO from each camp and I chose one's who didn't have any infantry weaknesses so I chose Olaf for Blue Moon, Drake for Green Earth, and Kanbei for Yellow Comet. Have all of them on the same team and you'll be playing as Orange Star... I think the only CO from orange star that could MAYBE stand up to this challenge would be Max but probably not... I DID manage to pull off a victory using Sturm... mainly because of his terrain ignorance, but it was a complicated mess and it came down to basically a war of attrition.
My challenge ... beat hot pursuit hard mode in aw2 with 3 FLAKS ... one rule you have to let Sturm through, you are NOT allowed to block him, and instead of destroying the cannons, you must route all of Sturms units
Yeah, I found that out when playing a Versus game with my cousin a few months ago. As Max, I started with anti air and even a Medium tank, while he had a few artillery (he picked Grit). I let him win it, don't worry.
hi! how does a complete newcomer get into advance wars? it seems really fun and interesting, if you have any advice on how/what to play and what order to take it in that would be much appreciated :)
My advice is just start and play around with the CO and learn about their daily bonuses and powers. Look up all the stats, info, and get -used- use to the game mechanics.
Have you played Reverse Collapse Mangs? it’s definitely up your alley hard but fair I have been having a blast with it. Cool challenge map you have made here.
The impossible challenge here is not cringing at the title and thumbnail. Thanks Mangs, I hate it. I made sure to share it with my friends who know nothing about Advance Wars.
You know, maybe the whole Switch AI argument aged like milk XD Here I'm thinking of different possibilities where the challenge is "impossible" (or at the very least extremely hard), but the AI (at least in AW 1-2) is what makes it possible XD One of those said challenges is the Orange Star Factory mission in AW2. Like, you start out EXTREMELY small and your enemy is making units left and right. Your only hope is to break the seam and that's it, but... what if you try to rout the enemy instead? And then I'm just thinking about the AIs behavior and well... I'm like it can be possible XD I'll try to experiment it on the Switch version, but it almost feels like (at this point) that the Switch's AI is waaaaaay better than in AW 1-2 x.x
Does it have to be Olaf, Eagle and Kanbei in that order? I would imagine that if we shove Kanbei in Olaf's spot this would be much easier.. maybe. *never mind, the deed was done by a cloud already.
1 vs 3 cpus is sometimes harder to play against 1 human on some maps. Cpus are wierd with their movement and attack strategies and leave some of their more expensive units vulnerable to getting ganged up on. Yeah, as Mangs says HQ capture is your best bet.
Funny enough, the War Room Challenge pre deployed maps has this XD I think it’s why during the Rivals map, I used Drake since he started out with 2 cruisers At work, but…. Challenged accepted XD I think… funny enough, there is a way and if the AI did it in a specific way. I won’t be able to try it right away, but I’ll experiment on it when I get the chance
@mangs1337 I'd really like if you showcase, explain, show replay on your chanel the solutions of each challenge, maybe multiples, and aborting what AI glitch/cheese was used, or what oversight happened.
If you make a video, tag it with #impossibleadvancewarschallenge so it will be easier for me to see it.
"Here's how i did it with 3 mechs and an APC on day 5"
Actually... you aren't far off XD
I love AW (currently replaying AW2). It is hard to find streamers and YTers who play it. Thanks. That was a nice refreshment.
I don't think I've seen Nell's CO expressions in AW1 before, very cute.
Such a shame they didn't have those in AW2.
"Impossible"
I'll give it 2 days until someone beats it.
I'd say three. See you when a solution pops up.
@@alexandrefillot9600 Would be pretty funny if, after that Mangs jokingly said 2 hours, someone uploads in like 20 minutes that they cleared it.
Nah. Imma go with like 4 hours.
24 hours and I am taking a huge risk here
2 hours is about right, that's what i need for most of them if i happen to be around.

@@Teknanam You see, Japan isn’t China. Japan can take a joke and make fun of itself.
@@winterFox2r ...This is the same Japan which is famour for denying any wrongdoing in WW2, right?
"this time i believe i've finally created an unwinnable challenge. i dont think theres a way for you to beat it this time."
HE SAID IT, HE SAID THE THING!! POGGERS
It's been 20 minutes did someone beat it yet
yes

Nell can take three guys at anytime, anyplace.
At war too.
It is done.
Who?
@@NeatChill I did it, just uploaded it on my channel.
@@NaturalCloud Amazing work!!
Nice, only took 2 hours.
Very good sir, sub
Mangs : I believe, THIS time, i created an unwinnable challenge
His Community : Hold my beer...
That thumbnail + title combo LOL
Kanbei and Olaf are looking at her with evil intentions in the thumb 😂
That thumbnail is bloody genius 😂
Moar than genius
I have a feeling it wouldn't be Nell's first rodeo
and its changed, youtube doesnt like naughty stuff lmao
@@wackpendejo3000 damn youtube, we can't have anything nice anymore
You know it's one of the easier challenges when Mangs almost beats it in his demonstration.
This challenge needs to be buffed with Olaf => Max and Eagle => Sturm (AW2) to see what Nell can really handle
This looks easier than some of the other impossible challenges.
can nell take 3 guys? yeah probably. oh, in a fight? not sure
The only way one of these challenges is going to be unbeatable is when the player starts as Grimm, with a regular tank stuck in range of a hostile mega tank, and a base within range of 2 hostile bombers.

Can Neil take 3 guys?
Well Neil can stretch her Line of Defense to accommodate 3 attacks in one go. So yeah it's possible.
This seems way easier than the other impossible challenges to be honest with you
Far better thumbnail now
you should record yourself reacting to the videos that beat your challenges
Was twas the original thumbnail too spicy.
Thanks for the challenge, Mangs! It's a lot of fun to try these out.
Unfortunately, me and a few others already beat it :P
Damn someone beat the challenge in like 3 hour lmao.
“Eagle? eh, will be interesting. Olaf? Pff, simple. But gold comets Emperor himself? Now that’s a fight!”
I give it 1 day tops
In a fight right? You mean in a fight right???
2 more, and everyone gets Pizza & Fries.
Some smart ass always beats it in like two hours lmao 😂
My challenge ... beat hot pursuit hard mode in aw2 with 3 FLAKS ... one rule you have to let Sturm through, you are NOT allowed to block him, and instead of destroying the cannons, you must route all of Sturms units
Well, there was nothing implied here at all, clearly.
The different unit load out is a very interesting thing about the first game. I’m not sure if I found out myself or from Ephraim
Yeah, I found that out when playing a Versus game with my cousin a few months ago. As Max, I started with anti air and even a Medium tank, while he had a few artillery (he picked Grit). I let him win it, don't worry.

Nell beats off three old men challenge.
Isn’t me alone got clickbait because I thought it was going to be AW reboot video 😂
I give Grimm guy 48 hours before he beats it
So, he took out one of the three, but was still no match for TWO MEN.
Did youtube force you to change the thumbnail?
Have you played Reverse Collapse Mangs? it’s definitely up your alley hard but fair I have been having a blast with it.
Cool challenge map you have made here.
Ayo, that title is wild!
Let's see how long it takes for this challenge to go up in flames.
With Nell against Kanbei will be the true test for sure.
I...feel like that thumbnail wasn't the one I saw earlier, and that fact was what led me to this video.
I always found it odd that back in AW1, pre deployed missions had no funds and you could repair no matter how much income you had.
Who would do such a thing, finish a challenge within 2 hours xD.
Il give this a whirl.
Already beaten
Aww shit! Here we go again...
I like it that Nell has the Nicaragua flag (that may be the flag of several other countries, but I don't care, I'm from Nicaragua, let me dream).
The challenge was beaten in 3 hours.
The impossible challenge here is not cringing at the title and thumbnail. Thanks Mangs, I hate it. I made sure to share it with my friends who know nothing about Advance Wars.
Impossible Challenge for Mangs: Beat the four final maps from Super Famicom Wars (Shark Strait, Royal Channel, Countdown, Final Battle)
You know, maybe the whole Switch AI argument aged like milk XD Here I'm thinking of different possibilities where the challenge is "impossible" (or at the very least extremely hard), but the AI (at least in AW 1-2) is what makes it possible XD

I'll try to experiment it on the Switch version, but it almost feels like (at this point) that the Switch's AI is waaaaaay better than in AW 1-2 x.x
Bro that title 😭😂
Yeah mangs advanced wars content, as nature intended
Perfect Thumbnail! It even has the font of _that website_ 🤭
I was going to make a joke about how it wouldn't last a day and old man egg is going senile, but it was beat by the time I saw the upload :)
That thumbnail makes me feel really bad for Max and Grit.
Well that was interesting 🤔
Does it have to be Olaf, Eagle and Kanbei in that order? I would imagine that if we shove Kanbei in Olaf's spot this would be much easier.. maybe. *never mind, the deed was done by a cloud already.
1 vs 3 cpus is sometimes harder to play against 1 human on some maps. Cpus are wierd with their movement and attack strategies and leave some of their more expensive units vulnerable to getting ganged up on. Yeah, as Mangs says HQ capture is your best bet.
My ranking of the 5 most broken COs of AW1:
5 -Nell
4 -Eagle
3 -Kanbei
2 -Sturm (Vs Mode)
1 -Max
In a fight?
I already know the answer, I've seen it a few times before. She can even handle five.
We wont forget the old thumbnail Mangs
Funny enough, the War Room Challenge pre deployed maps has this XD I think it’s why during the Rivals map, I used Drake since he started out with 2 cruisers
At work, but…. Challenged accepted XD I think… funny enough, there is a way and if the AI did it in a specific way. I won’t be able to try it right away, but I’ll experiment on it when I get the chance
I mean, yeah probably
I'll give it another hour.
Yes she can
Is also valid if I used andy that had same nell units? And not using any CO power?
It says 1 hour since posted, what's the name of the channel of the guy who beat it?
Impossible Advance Wars Challenge Solved in 3 hours
🥚
Hello guys, does Mangs have a discord server? I want to join there so bad :( (I'm not talking about the download station)
Can we move Kanbei next to Nell or does he have to be one the opposite corner?
She can sure try
So what you mean is we just have to keep rerolling for maximum luck? :)
Oh boy here we go, Bwangs will be beaten yet again. The question is, how long will it take for someone to beat this?
The second part is in the orange RUclips???? Jajajaaj
Coming down to see how many comment on the thumbnail.
As of this comment I have the fastest known LTC lmao
okay by the looks of that thumbnail the joke i would've made about the title has already been made, bravo sir
Haven't had a change to watch the video yet, but it appears like you were forced to change the thumbnail
Up!
In a fight, right? Right?
NOEK !
Putting the comment down right now and setting the timer. Be back in a few hours XD
I have returned. It has been done. Great video by @NaturalCloud.
it took 2 hours :D
Peak thumbnail design
Literally the best thumbnail yet!
Single best video thumbnail ever made.
@mangs1337 I'd really like if you showcase, explain, show replay on your chanel the solutions of each challenge, maybe multiples, and aborting what AI glitch/cheese was used, or what oversight happened.
ill give it a day before someone cracks it.
3 guys? Now there are no holes in Nell's game.
Did he have to change the thumbnail?
I give it 10 minutes
nobody will beat it this time :copium:
NaturalCloud beat it in 13 hours.
Nell cana do it😏❤️
