'''Battle Mystery!''' is the eighteenth mission of the [[Advance Wars]] campaign. It is the last battle where the player fights Drake. This article is on the Max version of this mission. By choosing Max, neither Eagle nor Drake can be unlock for [[The Final Battle!]] in addition to making them unavailable for purchase in [[Battle Maps]] after clearing the campaign.

==Background==
[[Eagle]] exclaims he saw his face, and that it had to be [[Andy]]–at which point [[Sonja]] interrupts. Eagle wonders what she is doing, to which Sonja replies [[Clone Andy|someone else than Andy]] attacked [[Green Earth]]. Telling Eagle all that she knows, she beckons him to follow so she can tell him who has been pulling all of the strings. Drake backs her up, saying Eagle should go with her and not worry and that he will take care of Green Earth.

Andy says Drake means boats, and just watching is fun. Ignoring him [[Sami]] mentions Drake must have a reason to challenge them, like Eagle. Max says he wants Drake to just ask if he's trying to find something out, but agrees it's never that easy. Sami mentions the battle won't be either as it once again revolves around boats as Andy finishes by mentioning they're ignoring him.

After the battle Max asks Drake why he has been attacking them. Drake asks if they haven't sensed him, the person behind all the fighting, telling them Sonja and [[Grit]] have been trying to lure him out of hiding. The battles were staged to draw attention away from Sonja's movements, telling them they're finished now-Sonja has found something. Drake says he'll be joining her as soon as possible, but he has to take care of Green Earth. He then asks [[Orange Star]] if they can go in his stead, which they will.

The next mission is [[Andy Times Two!]].
