Overview: You can capture Eagle’s HQ without any problems in six days with the sacrifice of two unloaded T-copters. Use your funds from Eagle’s HQ capture to build a powerful air force capable of providing the power score.

Kanbei cannot follow the walkthrough exactly, but he does have his own walkthrough. Honestly, if you are aiming for an easy completion, use Eagle, though Sami can finish the map faster. Since AW1 does not have an in-depth enemy unit count, before capturing Eagle’s HQ, you must stop and count Eagle’s units for the purpose of the power score.

You can afford to be riskier with Sami’s HQ capture if enemy soldier units are nearby. The AI does not seem to attack your solider units if they are positioned on superior terrain unless a COP has been used. It’s better to be safe than sorry, so wound any nearby soldier units.

If Sami builds Artillery adjacent to her HQ, you can cripple the Artillery to 2 HP or less. The Artillery will retreat to nearby HQ cities, but it will not attack your capturing Infantry.

As mentioned earlier, AW1 does not have an in-depth unit screen detailing the total number of enemy units built. You will have to avoid destroying Sami’s units until you are certain you can achieve the power score on that day. This is far easier than it sounds. If you can cripple her units to 2 HP or less, the AI will retreat said unit and NOT attack with the injured unit until it is completely healed.
