— Max -

Max (Japanese: マックス Makkusu; Max) is a direct combat specialist enlisted in the Orange Star army. He is a confrontational Commanding Officer who plays a prominent role in the campaign. If selected, he debuts in the fourth mission of Advance Wars.

Notably, he is one of the few characters to have the same name in every language edition of the games, along with Hachi, Rachel, Sasha and Lin.

Role

Max is a loyal companion to both Andy and Sami. In stark contrast to both Nell and Sami, Max is aggressive and can be considered the brawn out of the three. Like his colleagues, he is available for use during the final push against Sturm in both Advance Wars and Advance Wars 2.

Personality

Max is a fearless, masculine hero. While not being especially bright, he is devoted to his cause and his fellow CO's. He often finds himself in arguments, especially when offended by his advesaries or allies. Like Sami and Andy, he is always prepared as well.

Relationships

Max maintains good relations with other CO's in and outside of Orange Star.

Skills

Max's forte lies in non-infantry direct combat units, while his weakness are with indirect combat units.
