Danger x9 is the twenty-ninth mission of the Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising Campaign, and the fifth of the Green Earth campaign.

Background

Eagle, Drake, and Jess receive intel that Black Hole has set up a lab containing blueprints of their Neotanks. The contingent guarding the lab is fairly small. However, they are also informed of a large force of enemy reinforcements that will arrive in 10 days. Determined to seize the Neotank designs, the Green Earth COs set out to capture the lab before then.

After the Neotank plans are recovered, Eagle and Jess bicker about who would use them more effectively in combat. Drake is disappointed by the pair arguing with each other yet again.

Strategy

This is one of the most difficult missions in Advance Wars 2 for a variety of reasons. The very strict time limit leaves little margin for error, and the Fog of War present definitely does not help matters. It is easier to rout the enemy forces rather than attempt to capture the lab that is sitting in the top right corner.

Eagle is the best choice for this map as his Lightning Strike will prove very handy in saving a turn. Use your Cruiser to damage or take down the enemy Battle Copters near the top of the screen while using your Rocket to chip away at Hawke's Medium Tanks and Neotanks. Make sure to build a Recon in the middle base to provide vision to your Rocket. Capture the airport in the middle section, build a Bomber and blast open the Pipe Seam. The Bomber will only be able to destroy a Pipe Seam in one turn with full HP, so don't let Hawke damage your Bomber with his CO powers before then. Don't bother building units from the rightmost base. They'll just get run over by Hawke's units.
