[@i-dont-burn-under-the-sun]

Yep, that's the part that plays after the Meteor Strike in-game

[@Keanotix]

Or the siren in AW2 og when you pop a super power.

[@LilyLinko]

Ahhhhh, this is SO close to being perfect, the only thing wrong is the sound balancing. The main melody is too quiet compared to the supporting instruments. If they just bumped up the main theme a bit, this would be maybe the best remix of the whole bunch.

[@ArchangelG2000]

That’s a common thing with a lot of the other theme songs. I believe the reason for that is because the music is dynamic in the reboot. When you enter buying mode the music changes gets muffled and a bunch of part of it just goes silent while the “main” beat stays at the same volume. The music also gets morphed when you pop your power. Who ever worked on the sound design, they deserve the S rank.

[@sonicgamer999-]

Cobraaah I actually like how the main beat is quieter, its almost as if saying he’s not boasting that he’s going to kick your ass, but merely stating it as fact

[@MasterOfTruck]

@@ArchangelG2000 dont forget the combat theme too. there are 6 variations of every theme. normal, normal idle, normal combat, power, power idle, and power combat. sturm is the only exception who has 9 variants because he has an additional remixed theme for AW2, however his power themes are the same.

[@ThePortalDark]

not really Russian All nations already represent a country/region Orange Star = America/USA Blue Moon = Russia Yellow Comet=Japan Green Earth = Germany Black Hole ends up being a departure from this theme and makes them more a "invading" force rather than giving them an specific theme. Flak is a biker, Lash is a Goth Loli, Ader is a Emo/Punk. Hawke and Sturm are the closest to a "militia based" character on their design with Hawke looking more like a bounty hunter and Sturm as an Alien Dictator. His design is also the closest to a Nazi/Facist Commander than the rest of the "nation"

@@Zoibek The composers did not "do justice" to the soundtrack as a whole, it's absolutely buried in unnecessary layers of instrumentation. Several CO themes are missing key pieces of their original melodies, others have them severely dampened or altered. The ReBootCamp OST is nothing but a well-funded fanmade remix album, but sure, let's pretend like because it's something new in the Advance Wars series that it should be given less criticism. These aren't the words of a nostalgia-blinded elitist either, as there were plenty of things about the original games that could and should have been improved or expanded upon, but alas WayForward was probably not the best studio to hand over those reins to but they took them nonetheless.
