wow just a little one sided don't ya think? Almost 2 on 1 in every mission with few choke points. What defensive placements you can use you usually have to spend 3 turns setting up your defense. In that time the enemy is surrounding your minuscule army. The game has potential. But an extremely high demand from players. Takes the fun out of many levels.

@lauren16 1. Any units that could walk over mountains in normal mode (soldiers and spider tanks) can do so in hard mode. 2. Terrain affects movement, so something like a forest or hill can mess with the amount of spaces a unit can move. 3. Hard mode gives the enemy a 33%ish damage increase, so it only looks like they do full damage relative to normal mode. Hard mode is a bit of a challenge, but the enemies don't cheat.

Bullshit game. I thought hard mode would give a nice challenge but instead it just allows the still stupid AI to not be bound by any of the rules of the game. Their units can walk over mountains, still deal full damage when they've taken damage (unlike my units) and sometimes the game outright lies to you about how far they can move, and they'll move one space further and attack (instakill all but your most powerful tank obviously). Even if you're a tactical genius you can't be prepared for that.

So very buggy. Just defeated a level, got the closing blurbs from the talking heads, and now it's just sitting there. No options, units aren't selectable, menu isn't available. Awesome. This is one BOTD that's not worth the headache.

The learning curve is extremely frustrating. Chapters 1-3 are no problem, then suddenly you are faced with overwhelming forces and unforgiving terrain on Chapter 4.

This is the only flash game series that I've played completely through at least 3 different times. Really wish they'd make more episodes.

Why cant i destroy enemy factory with my rocket? And why does not my tank fire when fired upon like the enemy tank does.

Bonus map won't play for me, either. As others have reported, the enemy begins his turn and then freezes. How are we supposed to get the BOTD if the game doesn't work? >:o

Won't load. Gives an error about needing local storage and instructs me to hit "Try again" to fix it clicking it does nothing.

Lets reach back for a game Published Jan. 10, 2010 for BOTD... because there's nothing newer that is worth giving a badge.

Plz give this a plus for people who need help!
Game Tips:
This is basically the Advanced Wars (AW) but it is much easier than it. Since you have a bugged drone, which can do kill combos. And since it is an air unit. I use it as a block. Your fortress is built with rockets, another bugged unit, coz the antiGround and antiAir units are separated in AW. Rockets can cover all you need with its range. But before all that, your block--drone has some weaknesses. So here introduce the most bugged unit stealth tank! It needs 1 turn to hide from moving after being built or discovered. Please build them asap. I personally use 2 stealth tanks so one can retain the position after killing the fores. Your fortress setup: rocket at the center, surrounded by drones, make a gap for stealth tank to lure. This is a sure win.
Things to concern:
Air units. Use jammers to stop them, so op as an antiAir unit. Jammers are the best for defending around the coast.

Bonus map is bugged for sure. Enemy moves a couple of units and then doesn't end turn. Ever. Little icon in the top left makes it seem like the enemy is thinking, but I doubt that I've completely stumped the computer on the first turn.
