Advance Wars Dual Strike Kindle's Theme (Extended)

[@burmecian123]

"Those pipe runners were Lash-generated. You didnt make them." "Its art. I prompted them!"

[@ShadowdaHedgie11]

-"It's a stone, Luigi. You didn't make it."-

[@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor]

Let's be real. *"Urban Blight"* is probably one of the best names for a CO power yet. It just feels so evocative. She's a high ranking socialite, clearly unconcerned with the "commoners" who make up most of the city. Yet she's also clearly poised and knowledgeable on what makes cities, and especially their people, tick. I didn't think of it until reading another comment on here, but her Urban Blight can be expressed as her manipulating politics and people, feeding on their urban decay, until they riot and attack their occupants. Perhaps she is targeting the inevitable urban decay that happens in poorly managed cities. Empty homes, trashed streets, angry people ready to violently attack those they believe are their oppressors. This decay, in fact, blight she emphasises on the cities is also representative of Black Hole's plans to drain the planet, of which she is instrumental in due to her rank in the Bolt Guard. It's flavourful, a representation of not only Kindle but even Black Hole. Combine this with her music, which is bleak and feels very urban. It's not a simple battle melody like say, Jake. It's complex, it feels bleak and depressing, yet also high and upbeat. That specific instrument, which you can hear at 0:17 (you know the one) is the most magnificent part. It feels like you're listening to a dystopian mega-city, a mega-city of which Kindle would clearly be a high ranking member, apathetic to the struggles of the common people, much like how she acts. Yet when a threat to her power comes, she will manipulate the people into rioting against them. Overall, Kindle is one of my absolute favourite COs from this perspective.

[@monkeman5895]

Or you know, she rallies her simps to make your life worse

[@JohnnyJohnJohnson]

That's a good interpretation of it. Playing off manipulating people in cities, if I could make my own CO, it'd be a guy who's rebelling against Black Hole, turning citizens into fighters. His regular power would turn two random enemy properties neutral and give a mediocre boost to attack and defensive power, but his super CO power would instantly turn two random enemy-owned properties to his side and have a much bigger stat boost, both of these obviously excluding HQ buildings. I had the idea of calling his power "Sabotage" or something, but the super power would be called "Uprising". His ground units would get a 10% firepower boost on terrain with 2 or more stars, but 10% firepower reduction on terrain with 1 or no stars to emphasize a guerrilla war, and enemies that go onto his properties take 1 damage per turn to emphasize active, violent resistance against Black Hole. I wish there was a way to design CO's and use them in custom games.

[@Nehfarius]

@@JohnnyJohnJohnson If I may, better names for that second power would be 'Open Revolt'.

[@java20422]

Could be, Nintendo games have often hidden meanings and layers... However she might just have some special forces or snipers units ready to make traps and ambushes in cities

[@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor]

@@java20422 I prefer my interpretation personally, but yeah, it could just be snipers.

[@arcturus64]

Fun fact: Candy/Kindle is French, in the French version her CO power is called 'révolution' . So every time she pops urban blight it's a revolution in every city. AW devs were well versed in French memes it would seem.

or a vague historical awareness of their extremely bloody history, yeah

I hope AWDS gets remade next. This song would sound absolutely fantastic with a modern remix.

[@DarkCyberElf]

I really don't want to find out how WayForward's composers would butcher this theme in particular. It already has so much going on and is easily the most sophisticated of Dual Strike's music along with "It's a Wrap!", it doesn't need much more than a new paintjob (higher quality instrumentation and real instruments rather than the soundfont replicants of them).

[@MrxD-cg5xs]

Why does her attitude remind me of Kagura from Inuyasha though? Actually, if Kindle has a voice actor in the Advance Wars: Dual Strike Remaster like Reboot Camp it should be whoever voiced her. I don't remember her name but she would be PERFECT for the role. Just make her sound more spoiled, snarky and make her have a *slight* French accent.

Great theme. I love the opening. The CO irritated me no end in the Campaign, but she's got some pretty useful abilities.

[@insertnamehere6659]

Honestly, the idea that she can incite violent riots against her enemies at will is terrifying. Does she have some form of ESP? Does she utilize some kind of airborne pathogen to drive citizens into a bloodlust? I wish the AW series got into the darker bits of details without getting super edgy like DoR did.

You know, I think I realize why kindles theme is my favorite of the new black hole cos from dual strike. Koal and jugger have good themes don’t get me wrong, but kindle’s is the only one which has an element of dispaor and makes me feel like there’s an actual threat at hand, which considering this is a war is something I should feel more often. I mean sure advance wars has a colorful lighthearted theme, but that doesn’t change the fact that if you lose and black hole wins the whole world will get desiccated to give von bolt eternal life. So yeah, I kind of want music that conveys that despair when I fight them

[@BigBenClockTower]

Love her. Also part of the super unfun tag pair of Kindle/Sasha. It's like you just want to make people tear their hair out.

[@Gamerguy826]

You've just given me a very sadistic idea... -Play as Kindle/Sasha. -Play on high funds against anyone else. -Spam Black Bombs. -Spam Urban Blight to sap unit HP (in conjunction with the Black Bombs) and spam Market Crash to deny enemy CO powers as much as possible. -Spam MD tanks, Mechs and throw in some Anti-Air and Artillery for good measure. -Build Fighters and Bombers (on occasion).

[@butteredsalmonella]

Badass my ass, the only badass here is Hawke cause he gives no fucks about anything.

[@roderick8997]

if i were gonna fancast her, Gemma Chan (Minn-Erva from Captain Marvel) should become Kindle

[@butteredsalmonella]

My point still stands lmao, the worst part I just realised is the Piperunner Lab Map where at the start she praised Piperunner, taking all the credit from Lash saying that it was her magnificent design, idea, concept and firepower and everything. Then when she loses, she blames Lash for making Piperunner a Mediocre and more expensive Rocket Launcher. Hawke is really the only badass, doesnt mess with his opponents and want a serious fighting challenge, thinks a strategy before attacking his opponents or defending his fortresses, respects his own opponents himself, when he lost in The Great Sea battle, he simply just faked his own death, blamed no one and let the soldiers do whatever they please. After Sturm's defeat at the Final Front, he suddenly appeared in the last second, kills Sturm to take rule of Black Hole, doesn't give fucks about his opponents surviving and just says he liked all of their performances and left. Come Dual Strike, he only appeared once as an opponent, as a means to defend the Piperunner map and a fodder, he lost then left, when he found out about Von Bolt he just simply left with Lash without any fear or anything, teamed up with the Allied Nations, when they won, he didn't even celebrate and simply went on his way, the second time they won, if Jake didnt shot Von Bolt will pull a Sturm but Hawke just simply stopped him and presumably died, if Jake shot the chair, he was impressed and while Von Bolt tried the same thing, Hawke was still impressed by this act himself. He lived like a badass who cares nothing but himself, loves power and powerful opponents and killed the Two Main Bosses of the game. True definition of a badass, compared to some city fashion queen who is extremely delusional and finger points everyone when she loses.

[@Ctrekoz]

Very unique theme and a very cool one! Hectic, chaotic but beautiful, elegant, interestingly some Near East vibes even, some electronic stuff. There's a lot going on in this theme and all of it is amazing. Also I like Kindle's design a lot, very aesthetically pleasing to me. It's good that Kindle is not strictly beautiful, it would've been banal, but yes, she's exotic at best (someone said it perfectly: "fish face" xD). Also Kindle fits her a lot better than Candy, bleh, that's vulgar.

@@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor she definitely is! That +40% fire power from cities is such a good passive to have. And she is also one of the few new character additions in Dual Strike that feel like they were properly thought out beforehand - she is super strong on cities, so to counter that you either avoid all cities (in which case she has an easier time capturing them and deals a massive blow with her SCOP), or to block them by putting your own units on top (in which case she can use her COP to drive them off again). Around cities anything you do against her feels like a lose-lose situation.

Much more antagonistic, tougher to beat, no weaknesses, and the devastating tags with Koal and Jugger - that feeling of dread when the BH tag music has already looped, your army has barely survived, and the CPU swaps Kindle in for the second turn...
