General Strategy

A great mission. A lab is hidden here too for the Black Boat unit that I highly recommend you to get. The plans are in the Westernmost neutral city covered by Candy’s/Kindle’s Artillery.

Sinking the Battleships is your greatest concern. If they manage to get over half of their HP back, things get messy even as Javier or Kanbei. Luckily, you’re well equipped for this fight with a Submarine and two Cruisers.

The immediate danger is the lone Battle Helicopter. Once that’s dealt with, get the Battleships. Refuel your Submarine and finish off all the other Naval units. Ship a Tank over to the HQ guarded by a lone Artillery.

In-Depth Guide

Assault the Artillery with your Recon, then move all other land units as far East as possible without moving into range of the Artillery. For now, don’t worry about moving into the range of the Battleships but Make sure the Anti-Aircraft unit is as South as possible to get that pesky Battle Helicopter if it goes inland.

Don’t worry about Candy’s/Kindle’s powers, just concentrate on dealing damage to all of her units so even when she uses either of her powers, that 40%/80%/120% of a unit that’s at half strength or lower is what you’re aiming for since itinevitable that she’ll use her power ASAP.

My Score:  Day 8, 300 points, Kanbei/Sonja.
