Mighty Kanbei! is the 13th mission in Advance Wars 1: Re-Boot Camp, and it begins with players at a significant unit disadvantage. Fortunately, fans can use the map's layout to easily overcome this disadvantage and perform a sneaky capture on the yellow HQ. This guide is here to detail exactly how to perform that capture, and it will make it easy for players to secure an S-rank in Advance Wars 1: Re-Boot Camp's Mighty Kanbei! mission.
To note, the Mighty Kanbei! mission was played with Sami acting as CO for the purposes of this walkthrough. That said, the other Advance Wars 1: Re-Boot Camp COs are capable of completing this mission with an S-rank, though movements may need to be adjusted slightly. It is also worth mentioning that this walkthrough is for the Classic difficulty setting, which features more opposing Medium Tanks than Casual.

General Strategy
This Mighty Kanbei! walkthrough outlines a strategy in which Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp players will use Infantry and a Medium Tank to create a blockade at the east bridge. This blockade is maintained by continually refreshing the Infantry with healthy units and using the Rocket to thwart indirect assaults. Simultaneously, players will create a temporary blockade at the south bridge, which will allow them to dispatch vehicles with indirect attacks and ultimately push an Infantry to the yellow HQ.
