Hints

Conquering Cities

When you move in an inftary unit in a city and captre it make sure it's HP is high. The more HP it has the faster it will captre the city.

CO Nell

To get CO Nell just beat the Advance Campaign mode (you have to beat the first campaign to purchase the advance campaign).

Get Advance Mode Fast

All you have to do is beat the very last field training mission and then you get campaige,battle maps, stats, vs mode, war room. Then you get one last mission in field training(hint:you don't have to do the last,last mission it doesn't really matter) it is called special intel.

The Real Way To Get Extra CO's

TO obtain the extra CO's in the game, you must complete certain tasks (listed in the hints my good buddy GameCube submitted). After you beat Campaign mode once, then you're enabled to purchase the companionship in Battle Map.

Secret Mission "Olaf's Sea Strike"

If you destroy Olaf's Navy instead of capturing the HQ in mission "Olaf's Navy", you will be led to a secret mission, called "Olaf's Sea Strike". It is confirmed that it works.

Field Training Tactics From Nell

In field training Nell will give you battle Tactics. If you think Nell's tips are always right well your half wrong. She will sometimes say "Clearing all the tanks and troops is easier than capturing the opponents." I found it easier to capture the base when she says that! At some point in Field Training she will tell you the same thing but the advice she gives is the easy way. So do what you think would be easier because she is often wrong!

Bonus CO's In Multi-player Mode

Successfully complete campaign mode, then go to battle maps to find more CO's that you can purchase for multi-player mode.
