    I'd like to second this brilliant suggestion. The icon is perfect and youve got to love what it reads - "Space Peace"

    Even though i have a 3ds with 3 fire emblem games, S.t.e.a.m. And Stella Glow(those who dont understand, all of these are tbs games) i'll buy this game just to support the devs.

    More games like these need to exist. I might not play this game, but Risky Lab will get my money anyway.

    This is not a complaint or anything like that; although I’m new to AW like games, is it usual to take hours to finish just one game? I’ve been playing Sector 3-4 for three or four hours, Day 25, but still can’t seem to end soon because both players forever going back and forth. Could more experienced players finish a game like a breeze?

    Its a great game and i had my fun with it. Totaly worth the price.

    But to give feedback: The difficulty curve of this game is a bit too steep for me. I played up to lvl 3-5 or 4-3 ( i don't remember this exactly) and gave up because of getting too frustrated. For me it seems that the later levles are only winable by chosing from the first to last round the correct move pattern. If you miss this pattern in the first 2-3 rounds there is no way to win. Or the game will take forever and finally end with your defeat after several hours. Thats for me a big bummer cause i like strategy games that give you more than one way to solve a problem. Im talking about the later levels and maybe im wrong with this.
    The Powerups give more options to heal or power up the army, but they never changed a game once i made a wrong decision.

    I think the devs of this game understimate the frustration factor of players that play for hours one level and have to restart it. They lose so many players for the multiplayer part - cause the campaign is like a tutorial for this and if players don't finish the campaign, they won't go on to multiplayer. There will always be hardcore gamers out there who want the hardest difficulty to challenge their skills. Thats why i like to have a easy, normal or hard setting in strategy games. So everyone can chose what he prefers.

    As a massive fan of Advance Wars I've always bemoaned the lack of a similar game on mobile. But this really does hit the nail on the head and has such an AW vibe, whilst still managing to be individual and very much its own game. Outstanding...

    Easily one of the best games of all times. It gets much deeper and compared to Advance Wars it's clearly on par. Nice that the Devs decided not to do with the cutscenes that were reminiscent in AW. Those would kill the battery faster. This is the type of game that I don't mind staying plugged in for. Happy to see they finally released it from the beta too. I'm sure I could have ridden the beta to the end. But I bought it the night it dropped to show support.

    I remember AW being difficult, and back in those days there were no YouTube walkthroughs - only GameFAQS. I banged my head many a time against the wall, but it made pulling off the win gloriously awesome. Soon enough there will be walkthroughs out there if you get too frustrated.

    What an amazing year for mobile gaming! Warbits, crashlands, and puzzle strike are my favorite for the year so far and we are only into April.

    I never followed the gamecenter bug issue but I guess I must have it as I have a check maker for iCloud but an x for signed in. I try to open the gamecenter app and it just goes to a white screen and appears to freeze.

    I'm on the latest iOS which might be the problem?

    I hard reset the iPhone 6. Ideas?

    Yup, sounds like the GC-bug. Only solutions that seams to work now is the download the 9.3.2 beta. It's easy and quick and it works like a charm, at least for me.

    Bought it and love it.

    One comment (or maybe it's just me), if I move a unit (I think it was a light or heavy infantry) but don't attack right away before moving another unit, I seem to lose the opportunity to attack with the first unit. Is it just me or did anyone else experience that?

    Yeah, that's how it works. You can move before choosing who to attack, which is really useful in Fog of War as it means you can roll up next to a hidden unit and attack.

    Once you select a different unit though, the first unit is done for the round. I don't mind it. It forces you to plan which units to move first.

    Do you have TestFlight installed? If so, make sure all your TestFlight apps are installed and updated, reset the phone and try GC again. Worked for me. Or wait for iOS 9.3.2 which I've heard fixes it.

    I am on 9.2.1 right now and had the GC bug as well. Did the 4 steps the dev posted on Twitter I believe and it worked fine!!

    I try to remember:

    1.log out and in with GC in settings
    2.shut down device
    3. Use this hard shut down afterwards (home button+close button on a iPhone)
    4. Settings: time setting to automatic

    Worked for me! Great game! Very close to AW but they do have 1-2 new units and the super power thing is handled different.

    Also a great map variety :)

    Only bad thing in my opinion is the fact that games take way too long!

    I would love the option to start a quick game that is played like advance wars back in the days! That means a game in one go! Each turn like 2 minutes! That would be perfect!

    I might have a bad internet connection but when I try to go to GC via settings it also doesn't let me do anything. It doesn't seem to respond or give me any option m.

    Try to capture cities quickly to increase your income

    Likewise try to stop your opponent capturing cities, or getting an advantage by having more cities than you

    Make intelligent trades when attacking. Your troops are going to die, make sure more of theirs die by using the right counters
