— Colin -

Colin (Japanese: イワン Ewan) is a Commanding Officer from Blue Moon. He is a new recruit in the second game in the series, joining Olaf and Grit. He is the first Blue Moon CO that didn't defect from Orange Star, unlike Olaf and Grit.

Role

In Advance Wars 2

Colin joins the Blue Moon army while the country has been invaded by Black Hole forces under the command of Lash. He has to fight her on at least two occassions. During one, Two-Week Test, he is greatly outnumbered by Lash and he is only able to defeat her because of his skill with money. When Blue Moon is liberated, Colin joins in as a playable CO for the final missions of the game.

In Advance Wars Dual Strike

In Advance Wars: Dual Strike, Colin and his sister Sasha arrive as reinforcements for the Orange Star contingency early on in the game. He can be used for every mission thereafter that allows you to select a CO.

Personality

Colin has a timid personality, and is often insecure about his abilities. He looks up to authority, and is fiercely loyal to Olaf and Grit.

Relationships

Besides looking up for Olaf or Grit for examples, his sister Sasha is also a person of great importance for him.

Skills

Colin hails from a rich family, and as such, is quite skilled with money. Because of his inexperience, however, his troops suffer from an offense penalty in combat.
