ok. I'm getting in omachi:

LET'S PLAY SOME ADVANCE WARS

>How do I play?

1.- Download and extract www.mediafire.com/download/35cct9gh28jc9qa/
2.- Double click mednafen.bat
or just drag and drop "aw2.gba" into "mednafen.exe"
3.- Press Alt + Shift + 1 to setup your controls. (At every unique button prompt, press the key you want to assign it to TWICE so it moves on towards the next button).
4.- To connect to an active server, press T to type /server IP PORT or /connect IP PORT
5.- So we can tell you apart, press T to type /nick YOURNICKNAME
6.- Play the fucking game.

If you join a session with people on it, ask if there's any available open spots. If so, type:

/dupe 1

to share the control. I know this is 4chan, but don't be a dick and take control or move other people's units when it's not your turn.

Advance wars is shit.
It's basically
>Find the perfect way this was supposed to be played - the game

At least that other trash tactics game, valkyria chronicles, had a bit of open-end to it. Albeit, overall, being shit.

That gif you're thinking of is a meme. In real games, Kanbei demolishes Colin because of the humongous stat mismatch.
>>
Jagged Alliance 2
X-COM

>>322823391
Front Mission 4.
>>
>>322823391
3 is the most accessible.
1 is great but very simple. It's important for the story.
2 is just fucking amazing but you'll need a translation patch
4 is decent but the story is very dry. Combat is nice but 5 does everything better

5 the best one. Covers the entire series arc, great combat,neat graphics, cameos galore, and a killer fucking soundtrack. Translation patch came out a few years ago

If you'll only play one play 3. Easy to get, lots of translations, and not nearly as complicated. It also has 2 storylines so you'll get a little extra replay value
>>
>>322819087
Ignore every redditor who's gonna say FFTA, play FFT instead.
>>
>>322824131
Forgot Gunhazard. It's an action game but super fun. Front Mission evolved is basically a failed 3d version of it.

1 and especially 3 are the best by far. 2 is an absolute disaster. 4 and 5 are OK.

I'm very much on the fence with the new XCOM. I liked the DOS game a lot, but might want to try something a little more ... comfy.
>>
>>322819087

X-COM is incredible. I also recommend the Long War mod as it adds a ton of gear/weapons/new classes/etc.

It's got an overarching research progression kinda like a Civ game you build an army of characters that are customizable at your option. They level up and get new abilities and eventually can bet tested for psionic powers.

Combat reminds me of Wastland 2 but with more abilities and options.

Oh, also, it has permadeath for squad members.

RIP Captain Nikolai Kolotov, who died charging an enemy position so the VIP I was protecting that mission could escape

>>322825294
found the full video, AW1 was fun times

bit more balanced in 2 and dual strike
>inb4 dual system sucks
I only play single commanders, just like the graphics better
>>
>>322825685
AW:DS had the worst designs though. I will never forgive what they did to Nell.

>>322825443
But EU is an extremely comfy game
>>
>>322824576
I don't see why not. The original remains one of the best games in the genre, though it will likely take a bit for you to adjust to the UI.

As I said, I'm on the fence. I do want something comfy.

Too bad I missed the sale, but I think I might still get it.

No.
They're great

>>322828407
Dual Strike is kind of a mess, but DoR is the best game in the series.
>>
>>322828407
They're both good. Days of Ruin is a bit low on content, but is otherwise the best game in the series. Dual Strike has a ton of content and is generally pretty fun, but suffers from some significant balance issues.

Not Advance Wars. It's too simple and it treats war like high school.

>"Nell assumes Grit left Orange Star after realizing that Max had feelings for her and wished not to get in the way."
>I don't want to get in the way of my friends' relationship
>So I'll join the enemy and kill both of them

That's not actually why Grit left, but still.
