How to Play (Instructions)

• If you are familiar to Advance Wars use Keyboard X as Button A and Keyboard Z/C as Button B.

• Use arrows to move your cursor, X as yes/select and Z/C as no.

• The objective is to eliminate all oponent's units.

• After a Player finishes their turn, click on an empty ground to finish your turn.

• Tip: the little car is an APC, it can transport foot soldiers (one at a time) by moving them into the APC's tile.
