Glad I found a video where someone did the challenge mode of "Rivals!" Idk why but Ig others were either busy playing the challenge campaign or too (understandably) Chicken. 😆
Sad this the only mission I had to look up a vid on but thank you your guide helped me I did mess up on some steps but it took 47 days I hate this mission thank God it's done
Tks for the playthrough, your AW1 challenge campaign guides helped me to clear them with 300 point S rank for all,can't wait to see your take in some of the AW2 missions for the more annoying missions particularly in challenge campaign
Honestly watching some of the old footage, and your playthrough, and having played both versions. I'm thinking this version is harder.. even with the bonus units, no cheating in fog, and reluctance to use lightning strike The old game did a lot of dumb things like bombers prioritizing infantry on roads/plains over anti-air Grats on the win, faster than me by two days, and much more interesting going over the land; Edit: your best score going in was 25 days, absolutely blitzing it
The AI seem like smarter now. They try to use Recon unit to get vision, smarter retreat of wounded unit (ie: position in the back but still giving vision to frontline unit), try blocking your non-AA unit with flying unit...
The AI is very bad to judge when to use the CO power in fog. Without fog they use it much wiser than the GBA one but, like Ihis video showed, it could use it to great effect in the beginning but decided to not
Because it now has to play by the rules of Fog of War. It can't readily see all the enemy units like it used to, and therefore can't judge very well on when it's a good idea to use it.
I just finished it with 31 days. I had a similar approach i just was a little bit more cautious. Since in my first two good tries i got stomped by devestating copters and bombers. I had 5 Anti-Air Tank on the north and 5 Anti-Air Tank on the south befor i decided to advance. Though mission. Do not recommend and would never want to play it ever again. I never understand why they thought putting Rivals! into fog of war was a good idea.

@@Level5GamePlayThey still have an unquenchable bloodlust for APCs, though.
@@DoctorPorkenfries yea i think they intentionnally kept that bit
