Legal Info.........................................[5.0] ================================ 1. Introduction and Game Info ================================ --------------------------------- About the Author and FAQ [1.1] --------------------------------- Hello, and welcome to my Military Madness FAQ! My name is Kristopher Maxwell, I'm 14 years old and this is my second FAQ, my first being for Elite Beat Agents. I decided for my second FAQ to be for this game because I had just bought the game for the Virtual Console, and since there were no complete FAQ's for it, I decided to write one. Plus, the bounty is an added bonus too. ----------------------- About the Game [1.2] ----------------------- Military Madness was released in 1989 for the TurboGrafx-16, and was re-released for the Wii Virtual Console. It is a turn-based strategy game taking place on the moon, with the Allied Forces (you/Player 1) fighting the Axis (Computer/Player 2), similar to Advance Wars. However, it contains many game mechanics only included here, making it an innovative game. It also has a whopping 32 levels, making it quite a lengthy game. ----------------- Controls [1.3] ----------------- TurboGrafx-16 Controller: D-Pad: Move the cursor I: Select II: Cancel Run: Pause Select: Switch between "Fight" and "Surrender" on Pause Menu Wii Remote (Wii version, held sideways): D-Pad: Move the cursor 2: Select 1: Cancel +: Pause -: Switch between "Fight" and "Surrender" on Pause Menu Classic Controller (Wii version): D-Pad: Move the cursor A: Select B: Cancel +: Pause -: Switch between "Fight" and "Surrender" on Pause Menu Gamecube Controller (Wii version): Control Stick: Move the cursor A: Select B: Cancel Start: Pause Z: Switch between "Fight" and "Surrender" on Pause Menu -------------------- How to Play [1.4] -------------------- When you start the game, you have the option of beginning from the first level, or continuing from a later level. To continue, you need to input a password, which is the name for each level. Once you begin a map, it is your job to command your units. To win, you must wipe out the enemy forces, or capture the enemy's prison camp. To move a unit, move the cursor over a unit, then select it. Choose "Shift", and the spaces that unit can move to will be outlined. Select a space twice to confirm. Afterwards, you can choose a unit to attack, or cancel to end the unit's move. To attack, move the cursor over a unit, then select it. Choose "Attack" from the side menu. If you cannot attack a unit, it will appear in the description box below the map screen. If you can, the units you can attack will be outlined. Move the cursor over one and select it to attack. Each battle will give a unit experience. A unit can gain up to 8 experience stars, with the max experience being a large star. Even a weak unit can perform well in battle if it is experienced. To see a more detailed description of a unit, move the cursor over a unit, and select it. Choose "Guide" from the command menu, and information about the unit, such as it's name, attack and defense, movement and attack ranges, and a detailed description about it. To end your turn, simply go to the side menu and choose the command "End" to pass control to the computer/other player. The only way to gain units is to capture a factory. You can do so by moving an infantry unit onto the factory space, thereby capturing the factory and the units inside. You can capture neutral (yellow) and enemy (green) factories. The same goes for a prison camp. If a unit is weak, you can repair it by bringing it to a captured factory for a turn. Move the unit onto the factory to have it go inside. After a turn, you can take it out at full strength. The info box, located at the bottom of the screen, shows basic info about the area the cursor is above, such as the strength and EXP of each unit, as well as the terrain of that area. Terrain gives a defense boost; the higher the %, the larger the boost they get. Terrain also considerably slows down both your units and enemy units. Some units cannot move on terrain with a high %, so look out for those units before planning your strategy. Underneath the command menu is the map number, map name, turn number, and the number of units each player has. Use the last to see how well your war is going. If the enemy is too strong, or there is little chance of your victory, you can pause the game, and press Select to choose "Surrender". If you surrender, the game over screen will appear, and you will have a chance to try the level again. ---------------------- List of Units [1.5] ---------------------- Stats for each unit and other info have been taken from Base Nectaris' weapon guide. _______________________________________________________________________________ INFANTRY [1.5.1]: These are the only units which may capture factories or prison camps. GX-77 Charlie: This is a weak unit, and should be protected carefully. A good unit for capturing in the first levels. This unit is one of the two land units able to cross valleys and mountains. However, they must wait at the edge of a valley for a turn before being able to cross it. Land Attack: 10 Air Attack: 10 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 3 hexes Defense: 4 GX-87 Kilroy: Although it is slow, Kilroy has a land attack higher than the other three infantry units. It is the other land unit which may cross valleys or mountains, and the rule for valleys still applies. Land Attack: 40 Air Attack: 10 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 2 hexes Defense: 10 CBX-1 Panther: These guys are weak like Charlie, but can move 9 spaces in one turn! However, they cannot cross over terrain that is 30% or higher. (terrain % is indicated in the bottom right terrain box.) Land Attack: 10 Air Attack: 10 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 9 hexes Defense: 8 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ TANKS [1.5.2]: These guys are your main attack force, and appear on every map. TT-1 Lenet: The weakest tank, you will have to use these every once in a while. Land Attack: 45 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: N/A Shifting: 5 hexes Defense: 30 S-61 Bison: This tank appears frequently, and you will often have to use them against more superior firepower. Land Attack: 50 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: N/A Shifting: 6 hexes Defense: 40 GS-81 Slagger: This tank is similar to the Bison, but has superior movement and defensive capabilities. Land Attack: 50 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: N/A Shifting: 7 hexes Defense: 50 GT-86 Titan: There's an offensive advantage over Bison and Slagger here, but it lacks a large movement area. Land Attack: 60 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: N/A Shifting: 5 hexes Defense: 50 T-79 Grizzly: Again, an exchange takes place: more attack power, less movement. Land Attack: 70 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: N/A Shifting: 4 hexes Defense: 50 PT-6 Polar: This tank is weaker than the Grizzly, and still has less movement, but has more defense now. Land Attack: 60 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: N/A Shifting: 4 hexes Defense: 60 HMB-2 Giant: Now THIS is a tank! It has the best attack for a land unit, and has a huge defense, but there is a HUGE letdown in movement. However, this is the only tank with the ability to attack aerial enemies. Land Attack: 90 Air Attack: 40 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 2 hexes Defense: 80 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ LONG RANGE ARTILLERY [1.5.3]: Indirect attacks are a saving grace, as you can attack without taking damage. However, if attacked, they will be unable to counter. SG-4 Hadrian: This is the artillery with the second-longest attack range. However, it is slightly weaker than the others. Note that this unit can only Shift or Attack each turn; it cannot do both in a single turn. With a weak defense, keep it out of range of attack. Land Attack: 45 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 2-5 hexes Air Range: N/A Shifting: 4 hexes Defense: 30 MR-22 Octopus: This artillery is stronger than Hadrian, but has a smaller attack range. The same rules apply to this as well; only one action per turn. Land Attack: 60 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 2-4 hexes Air Range: N/A Shifting: 4 hexes Defense: 30 SS-80 Atlas: This is the only fixed artillery in the game, and can only be moved by using a transport vehicle. Despite that, this unit has attack to match the Giant's, and a range larger than the Hadrian. Keep it out of the way of enemies; it's the weakest artillery unit in defense. Land Attack: 90 Air Attack: N/A Land Range: 2-6 hexes Air Range: N/A Shifting: N/A Defense: 20 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ AIRCRAFT [1.5.4]: These units are some of the most useful in the game, as they have HUGE movement areas and few enemies can attack them. It should be noted that they can travel over any terrain, but do not gain terrain bonuses. FX-1 Falcon: This unit has the largest movement range in the entire game, but has a weak defense and can only fire on other aerial units. Land Attack: N/A Air Attack: 90 Land Range: N/A Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 12 hexes Defense: 30 AX-87 Eagle: This unit has a powerful land attack, and can still attack other aircraft, but has a lower movement range than the Falcon. Land Attack: 70 Air Attack: 20 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 10 hexes Defense: 30 EF-88 Hunter: This is the only well-rounded aircraft, containing powerful air and land attack, a good movement range and a fine defense. Land Attack: 70 Air Attack: 70 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 11 hexes Defense: 50 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ANTI-AIRCRAFT [1.4.5]: These are invaluable to you, as aircraft can take out your main attack force quickly. AAG-4 Seeker: This is a direct attack unit, and while it can attack land units as well as air units, it's best if it doesn't have to fight land units due to it's weak defense. Land Attack: 30 Air Attack: 65 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 6 hexes Defense: 30 MM-107 Hawkeye: This unit is stronger against air units than the Seeker, but it cannot attack land units, has a weak defense like the Seeker, and, since it is an artillery, can only choose one action per turn. Land Attack: N/A Air Attack: 85 Land Range: N/A Air Range: 2-5 hexes Shifting: 5 hexes Defense: 30 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ MOON BUGGIES [1.5.6]: These are the most versatile units, as they have the ability to move again after attacking, even if they have already moved! MB-4 Lynx: Lynx cannot attack adjacent enemies, but must move so the enemy is two hexes away. Although it can fire on aerial enemies, it is weak against them and must be adjacent to them. Keep them away from attack, as they have a low defense. Land Attack: 40 Air Attack: 10 Land Range: 2 hexes Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 6 hexes Defense: 20 MB-5 Rabbit: This unit is quite powerful against land enemies, but is weak against aerial units, and still has a weak defense. It has a larger movement range than the Lynx, though. Land Attack: 70 Air Attack: 10 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 8 hexes Defense: 20 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ TRANSPORT VEHICLES [1.5.7]: These units are vital to moving infantry, stationary units like mines and the Atlas, and slow units like the Giant. NC-1 Mule: This unit can only transport infantry and stationary units. It can counterattack, but should avoid battle because of it's weak defense. Land Attack: 10 Air Attack: 10 Land Range: 1 hex Air Range: 1 hex Shifting: 6 hexes Defense: 10 C-61 Pelican: This unit is a much better transport, since it can move any land unit, and has a large movement range. However, it cannot counterattack, and also has weak defense. Land Attack: N/A Air Attack: N/A Land Range: N/A Air Range: N/A Shifting: 9 hexes Defense: 10 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ MINES [1.5.8]: These are not used in the traditional sense, as they are only used to block enemy movement rather than blow them up. M-77 Trigger: The only mine in the game, it is a stationary unit, and must be moved with a transport vehicle. However, it's defense is tremendous, and should be used to support other units, or block enemy movement. Land Attack: N/A Air Attack: N/A Land Range: N/A Air Range: N/A Shifting: N/A Defense: 80 _______________________________________________________________________________ --------------------------------- Using Transport Vehicles [1.6] --------------------------------- Using transport vehicles is vital to success, so I will outline how to do so here. To transport a unit already on the field, simply have that unit move to the space the vehicle occupies. To transport a unit that is in a factory, have the transport next to the factory, then deploy the unit onto the space the transport occupies. Note that mines and the Atlas can only be moved through a transport vehicle, and only if they are in a factory. You can only move them once, so place them carefully. ---------------- Terrain [1.7] ---------------- Terrain can affect a unit's defense, as well as their movement speed. Here is a list of the terrain: Flat land: The basic terrain, it only slightly hinders movement, and gives a defensive bonus of 5%. Roads: This terrain allows units to move further than on other terrain. It gives no defensive bonus. Bridge: This has the same effect as the roads. Hill: Movement is lowered here, but the defensive bonus is 20%. Harsh land: Movement is lowered even further, but the defensive bonus is 30%. The Panther, Mule and Giant may not enter this area. Valley: The only land units to enter this terrain are the Charlie and Kilroy. They must wait at the edge for a turn before crossing through. There is no defensive bonus here. Mountain: The only land units to go here are, again, the Charlie and Kilroy. However, the defensive bonus is a whopping 40%. ------------------------ Zone of Control [1.8] ------------------------ The Zone of Control, or ZOC, is the 6 hexagons surrounding each unit on the battlefield. If a unit wants to pass through an enemy ZOC, it can only go one space per turn. Example: _ _/Y\ _/ \_/ / \_/ \ \_/X\_/ / \_/ \ \_/ \_/ \_/Z\ \_/ If Unit Y wishes to go to Point Z, and is forced to travel through X's ZOC, then it can only move one space each turn, and will take 3 turns to get there. A unit can always move at least one space, even if surrounded by enemy ZOC. -------------------------------- Support/Surround Effect [1.9] -------------------------------- Support Effect: There are two kinds of support: Offensive and Defensive. A support happens when a unit has other friendly units within the enemies' ZOC. Example: _ _/X\_ /1\_/ \ \_/2\_/ \_/ If X attacked 1, he would get a defensive bonus from 2. And if 1 attacked X, he would get an offensive bonus from 2. This is because 2 is within 1's ZOC, and also within the enemy ZOC. This also applies to 2. _ _/X\_ /1\_/2\ \_/ \_/ \_/ If X attacked 1, he would get no defensive bonus. But if 1 attacked X, he would get an offensive bonus. This is because 2 is inside of X's ZOC, even if he is not within 1's ZOC. Surround Effect: The surround effect happens when you have two units on opposite sides of an enemy's ZOC, and one attacks. It cuts the enemies' defense in half, and you strengthen your offense! Example: _ _/ \_ / \_/2\ \_/X\_/ /1\_/ \ \_/ \_/ \_/ If either 1 or 2 attacked X, X's defense would be halved and your units' offense would be strengthened. You can even combine the two to take down tough enemies like the Giant. Example: _ _/ \_ / \_/2\ \_/X\_/ /1\_/ \ \_/3\_/ \_/ If 1 attacked X, he would be supported by 1, and since the enemy is surrounded, the surrounding effect also takes place! The same effect would take place if you had either 3 or 2 attack. ========================= 2. Maps and Strategies ========================= --------------------------- General Strategies [2.1] --------------------------- - Keep units together. This way, they have a larger chance of getting a support bonus when the enemy attacks. - Keep units alive. If they stay alive, they keep their experience, which gives them an advantage. Rush them to the nearest factory if it looks like they'll die soon. - Have your weak/low defense units behind your tanks. This is vital for the units' survival. - Keep your units out of range of artillery. The less artillery attacks, the less experienced it will become, and the less damage you will take later. - Destroy aircraft ASAP. This is important, as attack aircraft can quickly wipe out your main attack force, and transport aircraft can quickly move infantry near your prison camp. Use anti-aircraft units or units with a good air attack. - Destroy transport vehicles containing infantry. Whether it's for a factory or your prison camp, keep them away from these vital areas. - Use the terrain to your advantage. If you place a mine on the only bridge in the area, it can help you immensely. - Use the surrounding/supporting effect whenever you can. It'll lessen the casualties your units will suffer if you don't use it. ------------- Maps [2.2] ------------- Example: Map 1: Revolt [2.2.1]: This shows what map it is, the name and the Ctrl+F box. Allied Forces Units: How many Allied units are on a map. These are your units, and the tally includes units in factories possessed by Allied Forces. Allied Factories: The number of factories you have on a map. Unless there is only one, I will number them and refer to their numbers in the strategies. I also list which units are in factories. Axis Units: Same as above, except you don't control them. Axis Factories: Same as above. Neutral Factories: This only appears if there are neutral factories on the map. Other than that, it's the same as the above factory categories. Difficulty: I will rate the map's difficulty level. Strategy: A turn by turn strategy to each level. _______________________________________________________________________________ Map 1: Revolt [2.2.1]: Allied Forces Units: 2 Charlies, 3 Bison. Allied Factories: 0 Axis Units: 2 Charlies, 2 Bison. Axis Factories: 0 Difficulty: Too Easy Strategy: Turn 1: Move your Bison near the bridge, and move the Charlies towards the south-eastern area surrounded by mountain. Turn 2: Have your Bison attack the enemy tanks, keeping in mind the support effect. Also, move your Charlies towards the enemy prison camp, keeping them together. Turn 3: Have your Bison pick off any remaining tanks, and use your Charlies to attack the lone Charlie that should be in the area; if not, advance towards the prison camp. Turn 4: Keep moving your infantry towards the prison camp. Turn 5: You should capture the prison camp on or around this turn. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Map 2: Icarus [2.2.2]: Allied Units: 3 Charlies, 5 Bison Allied Factories: 0 Axis Units: 3 Charlies, 3 Bison Axis Factories: 0 Difficulty: Easy Strategy: Turn 1: Have 4 of your Bison create a blockade near the road, and move your infantry and 1 Bison north. Turn 2: Move any damaged Bison out of the way, and begin to pick off the enemy forces. Also, keep moving the infantry north around the mountain. Turn 3: Pick off the last of the enemy Bison, and head after enemy infantry. After this, it doesn't matter what you do, as long as no infantry get to your prison camp. Just capture the enemy prison camp, and you've won. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Map 3: Cyrano [2.2.3]: Allied Units: 2 Charlies, 4 Bison Allied Factories: 0 Axis Units: 1 Charlie, 1 Kilroy, 3 Bison, 1 Hadrian Axis Factories: 1 (1 Kilroy, 1 Hadrian) Difficulty: Easy Strategy: Turn 1: Have your Bison attack the enemy Bison using the surrounding effect, and move your infantry north, across the mountain. Turn 2: Pick off any remaining Bison, and, if possible, attack the Hadrian. Keep moving your infantry towards the enemy base. Turn 3: Take out either the Kilroy or Hadrian; if you can, I suggest going after the Hadrian. Keep moving your infantry as well. Turn 4: Finish off the remaining Kilroy/Hadrian, then go for the Charlie. After this, it might be easier to capture the enemy prison camp, or to kill the remaining enemy. Just take which way will end the map more quickly. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Map 4: Ramsey [2.2.4]: Allied Units: 1 Charlie, 2 Kilroy, 1 Hadrian, 1 Bison, 1 Grizzly, 1 Polar, 1 Seeker Allied Factories: 0 Axis Units: 1 Charlie, 1 Kilroy, 1 Hadrian, 3 Bison, 1 Slagger, 1 Eagle Axis Factories: 1 (1 Bison, 1 Hadrian) Neutral Factories: 2 #1 (1 Bison) #2 (1 Seeker) Difficulty: Easy-Medium Strategy: Turn 1: Capture the factory nearest you with the Charlie. Then, move your tanks to the open area in the east, and hide your Hadrian behind them so you can attack next turn. Finally, move your Seeker and 2 Kilroy north to the neutral factory. Turn 2: Have your Seeker attack the Eagle, and have your tanks and Hadrian counter the enemy tanks. Also, keep moving your Kilroy closer to the factory. Finally, take the Charlie out of the factory. Turn 3: The enemy will begin heading south from either the left or right, so move your tanks into the proper positions to attack when the enemy arrives. Also, try to destroy the Eagle, as well as capture the factory either this turn or next turn. Turn 4: Once you capture the remaining factory, begin to move your infantry towards the enemy prison camp. After this, it is near impossible to tell what will happen. If you want to finish quickly, just move your infantry to the prison camp. Killing all the enemies will take some time. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Map 5: Newton [2.2.5]: Allied Units: 2 Charlies, 1 Bison, 1 Grizzly, 2 Rabbits Allied Factories: 0 Axis Units: 1 Charlie, 1 Kilroy, 1 Bison, 1 Lenet, 1 Rabbit Axis Factories: 0 Neutral Factories: 4 #1 (1 Lenet, 1 Hawkeye) #2 (1 Polar, 1 Seeker) #3 (1 Hunter, 1 Slagger, 1 Lynx) #4 (1 Titan) Difficulty: Easy Strategy: Turn 1: Start off by moving your infantry towards the factories closest to you, and keep your Rabbits at a safe distance, using your tanks to distract the enemy for the turn. Turn 2: Counterattack the enemy with the Rabbits, moving any critically injured units towards one of the 2 factories you should capture this turn. Then remove all units possible from the factories you captured. Turn 3: If it hasn't been destroyed, take out the Hunter using the Seeker and surrounding effect. Otherwise, just destroy the enemies that have arrived, and move your Hawkeye and Lenet from the north factory closer. Turn 4: Destroy the Hunter this turn if you haven't already, and fight off any opposing enemy troops. If you have enough units, go after the Titan approaching from the south. Turn 5: Finish off the Titan this turn, then go after any remaining infantry. Again, it's up to you if you want to chase after the enemy infantry or capture the prison camp. Just finish the map, either way you'll win. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Map 6: Seneca [2.2.6]: Allied Units: 2 Charlies, 2 Mules, 1 Falcon, 1 Eagle, 1 Bison, 1 Polar, 1 Hadrian, 1 Rabbit Allied Factories: 0 Axis Units: 1 Charlie, 1 Kilroy, 1 Mule, 1 Hawkeye, 1 Eagle, 1 Titan, 1 Rabbit Axis Factories: 0 Neutral Factories: 3 #1: 1 Eagle, 1 Grizzly, 1 Seeker #2: 1 Lynx #3: 1 Octopus, 1 Seeker, 1 Giant Difficulty: Strategy: Turn 1: First, load your infantry into the Mules, and move them north-east to the factories. Move your other land units north-east, as well as your Eagle, and Falcon. Turn 2: Surround the Hunter with the Falcon and Eagle to take it out. Also attack any enemies which attacked last turn, and unload one of the Mules next to factory #1. Turn 3: Your Falcon probably took heavy losses last turn, so move it into factory #1, which you should capture now. Also move the other Mule near factory #3, and have your Eagle attack the enemy Hawkeye. Don't forget to move your tanks and other land units, and empty the new factory. Turn 4: Keep the enemy busy with the 2 Eagles you now have while you move your tanks and other units toward the enemy. Also, capture factory #3 this turn and empty it. After this, how long it will take you to win is hard to tell. Just keep moving your units and attacking and you'll win...eventually. _______________________________________________________________________________ =========================== 3.
