The most interesting part was this challenge made 2 huge discoveries, the first during Kanbeis Error being that the Sonya Gaiden unlock is actually 30 total days for the 3 missions instead of 8/10/12 days individually, and the second in Rivals being that Olaf is sitting somewhere off-camera can cause it to snow, which was probably the best gift he could have given Andy in Rivals

@@AyCeit's perfectly fine to credit multiple people with 'discovering' the same thing, so long as those people each did properly make the discovery independent of eachother and the discovery in question was not yet well-known at the time the later person made their discovery. Historically, there are many examples where this type of thing has happened and generally speaking so long as this was the case, whoever popularized the finding is given credit for the discovery whereas the other individual, even those having technically made the discovery first, are typically relegated to a footnote if that -- and in cases where the above rules are followed, even the snobbiest of historians who are get the most firey about Edison stealing ideas from Tesla still generally consider this to be a perfectly fair way of apportioning credit.

Snow appearing on Rivals! is such an anime ending - if you only believe hard enough the impossible can happen and alter the fate itself! I watched it whole in one sitting, I absolutely love it. Most of the maps feel absolutely hopeless to do without losing a unit - I know it by heart spending a lot of time in this game - and yet you always found a way.

*Spoilers* Update. I have a theory on what happened with Snow on Rivals. You may notice that I sometimes turn fog of war off to show enemy units, I do this with a memory viewer command. I am effectively altering the ROM's code. I turn it off to record, then turn it on again. However, messing with the ROM's code can have unintended side-effects. I think the snow glitch may have been caused by me doing this. I guess that means my Rivals attempt isn't legit, and it is actually impossible to clear it normally, but at least it made for an entertaining video!

So for the Sonja missions in the advance campaign, it’s apparently just a case of the turn limits being different compared to the normal campaign. According to a Reddit thread I found about this, the turn requirements for the Kanbei missions in the Advance Campaign are 8, 14, and 16 compared to the 8, 10, and 12 turn limits in the Normal Campaign. I’d link the Reddit thread but KZbin doesn’t like people posting website links.

Speaking of rare "glitches" in Rivals, I found something incredibly strange while I played it. I was attempting my probably 15th try to beat this map. At some point, I got to a high day count, around 17 or so. I managed to build up an army to start pushing back on the north and south roads. I pushed through a bundle of Eagles troops on the road and after that... There was almost nothing there. No enemy units other than a couple of stray tanks and recons. For whatever reason, Eagle just stopped producing units. I know he didn't hit the unit cap since I looked through the whole north and south paths. I made it all the way to his HQ and saw him end his turn with nothing on his bases. Eventually, I moved an infantry in a transport copter over there and capped the HQ. I have no clue what caused such a lucky break, but I was grateful for it. Maybe it was the emulator I was using, or the game itself? I don't know. Seeing this video, it seems like Rivals is a much stranger map than we thought.

The snow falling during Rivals after so many attempts... It's like you were hoping for a miracle and suddenly the sky answered your prayers, giving you a single turn of relief. That's incredible. Please don't leave it at that, I'm really curious to get to the bottom of this and know if it was a glitch, or something that happens after you die so many times, or an easter egg, or anything else. Make another video called The Miracle of Snow in Rivals or something, cause I really wanna know xD. It's so cool when things like that are discovered more than 20 years after the release of the game. I loved all your deathless runs, they're really interesting to watch, but this one is probably the best due to your two discoveries.

If you want to continue this series, Super Famicom Wars DOES have a goal. After clearing a map (Unless its a 4-Player map), if you save afterwards, the map you played on will be colored to match the team whom won signifying they've "conquered" that land." iirc, if a player conquers all land against a CPU, that will trigger the ending sequence. There are 4 unique endings depending on which team you played, though if you only wanted to do two (The Regular and Special Maps) then that's understandable. Also, the 4-Player maps lack the conquering. You CAN do all the maps for fun, but there will be no signs to show what stages you have cleared.

Flash forward a few years later, when I was playing the fan translation of Super Famicom Wars. I was struggling on a certain stage and something broke in my mind. I realized the easiest strategy to beat any mission was to flood the map with infantry units. Just send 'em into the grinder to block the enemy from making any moves. If they killed one of my infantry there's one right behind to take their place. I became the terrible CO... childhood me would have been deeply ashamed of what I became.

I found out about your channel through the Advance Wars 2 deathless video, and it's what convinced me to give Advance Wars another shot. The videos on the channel helped me understand how AW functions, and I was able to beat the campaigns for AW2 and Dual Strike for the first time after having abandonded them years ago. Participating in the Egg Cup Season 2 was also a great time. These videos even got me to try out other similar games that didn't click with me during my first playthrough, like Fire Emblem and FF Tactics. While I'm still not fond of Fire Emblem, FF Tactics A2 has since become one of my favorite games of all time. So, thanks for reintroducing me to a series I had forgotten about and sparking my interest in SRPGs. Also, I am one of the mad lads who watches massive videos like this in one sitting.

This was absolutely insane! I didn't expect this one to be possible and was very pleasantly surprised to see that it was. I adore insane challenges like this that have even more insane solutions to them and the answer to Rivals gave me just what I wanted. The fact that you had to discover the whackiest glitch to just magically summon snow with Olaf's spirit or something was incredible and mind blowing! The Sonja mission combined turn limit requirement discovery was also really cool, but the random snow glitch in Rivals was just completely out of this world! I'd love to see people take a deeper look into it to figure out exactly how it works and why it happens. To answer the questions at the end, this video was by far my favorite out of the deathless runs mostly because of the two discoveries, but also the absurdly stupid strategies at some points like the mech spam on the first Grit mission and the fact it was actually indeed possible. I'd like to mention that the final battle was also really cool! Also I watched this all in one sitting :) Love your Advance Wars content and can't wait to see what comes next!

This is what you get when a Fire Emblem commander becomes a CO. I've watched all of your attempts, not consecutively but lately I've watched the other ones on a regular basis. Here are summaries for all of your runs: AW2: A nice start! Also proved Kanbei is objectively OP. AWDoR/DC: Technically impossible because they want to a dark casualty of war theme. Only redeemable by Mangs' original voice over drama. AWDS: Smarter AI + Tag Power - CO of Choice = Trivialization. But honestly, I won't be able to beat it. Also, Olaf + Drake is madness incarnate. AW1: The inspiration of all of the above and the hardest to complete. In fact, you need to unlock a very obscure secret to beat it. And to think the motivation of this series requires a deus ex machina to complete. Thank you for your endeavor and congratulations on completing every run of all Advance Wars games.

6:07 Man, hearing Grit's theme again after so long really hit me harder than I was expecting. I was never much of a "country" fan back when I first played Advanced Wars and even to this day it's not a genre of music I like that much but there was just something about Grit's Theme that drew me in. I would often leave my Gameboy Advance on playing his theme while I did other things instead of listening to the radio. So much homework and chores and just chilling were done to that music. I kind of watched this in one sitting. I got up to get some snacks every so often but didn't stop to switch to something else. I need to get around to watching the Days of Ruin deathless video. Honestly I didn't _hate_ D.o.R. but it's not my favorite A.W. title. I actually sort of liked the change to how C.O. powers worked as it made for more interesting strategy for positing and on if you should crew a more expensive unit or a more mobile one and the story was alright but the game just didn't catch me like the others did. I've put the video on my Watch Later list and will have a go at it next time but for now I need to get ready for bed. As for the question I don't really have a "Favorite" out of the videos, all the ones I've seen so far have been good. So thanks for the video! P.S. That one point short though. Big oof.

Now that you have completed all the Advance Wars in [Deathless Run] I would like to suggest that you finish them in [Pacifist Run] that is to say without killing any enemies just by capturing their HQs, I always wondered if it was possible to finish them like this.

In AW2, there's a Green Earth mission where you need to destroy all of Lash's battleships so I don't think it's 100% possible

I thought this was a true impossible challenge to do, a true one. But you've shown people who's true master Egg is. Well done, this video deserves billions of views! GG Mangs !

Days of Ruin is my favorite in the series, closely followed by Superfamicom Wars. I just finished your video in preparation of my day at work. Congratulations on the wedding, and may it be filled with many blessings and bright days ahead!

It's always neat when challenge runs uncover hidden inaccuracies or unknown nuggets of trivia. Free content indeed.

Impressive. Watched it in one sitting. This made me think.. Has someone ever made a video on how the OG 3 games improved on the AW design since the SNES release (and improved upon itself, or made something worse) with each subsequent release?

1:14:20 ain't that recon-chan tho? Congratulations, i didn't know it was possible, but you did it, with a little save scum, but hey, it's rivals, so i guess you get a free pass there XD You could try to beat wargrove deathless, or any other turn based game in the same style, like prince of persia for example, after all i love your deathless series and i hope you do more in the future, once again, congratulations

Very good job, glad to see the series conclude. Your deathless AW2 run got recommended to me, which is how I found your channel. If you are looking for other, similar challenges, you can always look into The Battle For Wesnoth. It is a turn based, grid based strategy game that turns 21 this year, and has been called the North American answer to Fire Emblem. Doing deathless runs through its various campaigns would be just as hard as some of the Advance Wars challenges, I warrant.

I did watch this through in one sitting! My only exposure to the AW series before this was reading cosmicpostman's text/screenshot LP of the first game, so it was a trip seeing how _fast_ this game actually is. And given the nature of that LP (personifying each of the individual units, making it heartbreaking when some of them die), I was super-happy to watch a Deathless run of this game. And the other three games. And I'm currently watching the tier lists you made. My only complaint is that my ears twitch every time you call the Yellow Comet CO "Kanbai." But I'm sure I'm not the only person who's ever brought it up over the years, so I'll grin and bear it.

I did watch it in one go, and my main thought is... The sheer patience of this man for going through the Sonja missions for NO REASON. Those are annoying enough in the base campaign.
