*Often, minimum casualties could be achieved through summoning lesser low-HP units, while using more high-HP units. (OR use sandbag strategically if you haven't obtained those high-HP units yet)
*I found that Leona is an awesome Melee unit. She helps me strike faster in the France Northern 3rd stage BOSS (avoid critical attack while making a counter attack!). You may experience this in the Metal Slug Defense New Missions.
*In the Sunday Saudi Arabia Boss area, i have to use Hopper Mecha to clear the stages so far.
*Sorry, no details for the Friday Challenge. I rescued 7 POWs last week, without jotting down the details. But i think the similar conditions apply, as stated in the other post.

Hi! Thanks for your tips...I can't get flying Tara on the daily event, because it doesn't seem to work the "only trevors" tip...sorry for my bad English :D
ReplyDeleteNo prob. Do you mean both stages 1 and 2?
DeleteBy the way, when using Trevors, sometimes i try not activating others such as his skills or Metal Slug Attack.
DeleteMaybe there is also a speed factor...by the way I did it :D
DeleteoO. Good one :)
Deletewhat does minimum casualties mean?
ReplyDeleteo. it means you have lesser soldiers to get sacrificed in the battle.
DeleteNormally, it can be achieved by using the soldiers with the higher HP. (and unleash the skills whenever possible)
Thank you, on Sunday
Delete(Saudi Arabia) stage 2 i used 3 trevors along with their skils and max AP
Great!
DeleteYour feedback is appreciated :)
Monday
ReplyDelete(Vietnam) Stage 1 used blue soldiers only, alot of them, got 1 pow

ReplyDeleteTuesday (Kazakhstan)
ReplyDeleteStage 3 - used 2 Slugnoids, 2-3 Abul Abbas, multiple Hopper Mecha, used abilities, 2 metal slug attacks, got 1 pow
Stage 3 - used multiple Hopper Mecha, multiple Slugnoids with sandbag and 1 SV Camel by mistake but got last pow
wowowow, thanks a ton!
ReplyDeletedidn't work for me in tuesday stage 1...I used only blue soldier with or without the special ability, but nothing...
ReplyDeleteok... do you ensure that the tank doesn't come out before you destroy the portal?
DeleteWhat do you mean with tank? I never saw any tank in this stage, only the big crab :(
Deleteis it? Too bad i am only able to verify this next week.
DeleteA big crab for stage 1?
Anyway, the blue soldiers are meant to reach and destroy the portal faster before the boss comes out...
(i may be wrong...)
I'll try again next week, no problem. Your help is already greatly appreciated :D :D :D :D
DeleteHoe do you beat the sumday last mission? Do this require prem items?
ReplyDeleteHopper Mecha is the answer :)
DeleteSummon Hopper Mecha as much as possible.
Meanwhile, remember to upgrade your HOME base HP. (to withstand more attack)
FYI, Hopper Mecha can be unlocked after playing the Emergency
DeleteArea (World 1 North Asia North East)
Thanks dude :)
DeleteIs Trevor a required unit to unlock most of these pows? I haven't spent any medals yet as I'm very limited to medals.
ReplyDeleteCurrently, I am stuck on Thursday (South Africa) Stage 3 where I keep getting overwhelmed by the 3 Juniper Kings. I can't summon anything or push them back without my units dying in one laser. I am using the marco, tarma, fio, eri, di-cokka tank, 3 ton truck, SV001, SV Camel, ostrich slug.
The reason i use Trevor is that he can fulfill multiple conditions at the same time, in my post "how to save POWs" . Generally, i would use Trevor as the first test, while trying not to "Upgrade AP Buildup, activate skills, activate Metal Slug attack, etc". It works for me so far.
DeleteIn the Thursday Stage 3, i would recommend using Leona instead (another awesome unit). You can defeat 3 Juniper Kings with only several Leona (around 5+)! The idea is to use her critical skill before the Juniper King casts the laser attack. (if you play the New Missions, you will experience this.)
I would say that your deck is not that strong for the South Africa Boss challenge. Those marco, tarma, fio , eri are just basic units... 3 ton truck also cannot cause much damage to the enemy... SV camel and ostrich slug have relatively lower HP. (Did you just start playing this game? )
Perhaps you should use the units with higher HP. You will gain more medals after unlocking more POW or the completing the New Missions :)
Yes, I am relatively new to the game. I just started 5 days ago. I already unlocked all of world 1, I got most of my POW abilities for world 2, but not all 100% yet. The thing is that I only have 400 medals, so buying leona and trevor is already 250. Which units do you recommend for higher HP than my basic deck?
DeleteI see. You are quite fast actually.
DeleteAnyway, i would recommend just buying Leona and Trevor. Both of them are awesome enough :)
Most of my units with the higher HP are unlocked through the POW rescue, such as the Di-Cokka, Elephant Slug, Nop-03 Sarubia. Together with the original SV-001, i think these troops are enough to handle all the World maps. (It might be a different story to play Wifi PvP...)
haha, i just kept reading your POW guides to make sure I have an easier and quicker chance saving POWs. Alright, I'll start with those two. What about the giant catepiller and samurai tank? I haven't seen those in the store yet. When do I unlock those?
DeleteI have most of those tanks except for Elephant Slug, so that'll be my next goal. As for PvP, is there like a list of units that people reviewed to see which one is good or not to invest in? Or is that in your next blog post about units? Thanks for the tips so far! They're very helpful
First, your feedback is very much appreciated :)
DeleteRegarding the giant caterpillar and the samurai tank, not quite sure but i guess they would be available in the shop after you have defeated the 2 areas in the World 3.
You are posing a good question here. Due to unstable network, so far i couldn't have much achievement in the PvP mode. And be honest, my Win Loss ratio is like 2:1. The thing is, gaining medals through PvP mode in order to purchase and verify the ideals units for this mode is kind of time-consuming.
Perhaps i should open the post for open discussion or something. At the time of writing, maybe the useful information that i could provide is that, the Samurai Tank is not bad for PvP. (Due to the low AP cost and fast production). My Leona experiences a latency and her critical attack couldn't serve much...
Will talk more about this in the new post soon :)
On Friday:
ReplyDelete-I rescued 1 pow with multiple trevor, leona, nadia, sv-001, hopper mecha and metal claw + ap max and 1 metal slug attack
-I try another pow with only mechanical units, (sv-001, hopper mecha, metal claw and DI-cokka + ap and 1 metal slug attack...
I don't know why I'm signing as "Unknown", but it's cool :D
It is perfectly fine with any name~
DeleteAnd thanks for your information of the Friday challenge :)
When complete "daily boss" win medals or just the unit?
ReplyDeleteSo far from the observation, the completion of Daily Boss will only unlock new units, no medals.
DeleteAhh, ok ty
DeleteFriday (Russia)
ReplyDeleteStage 1 - 3 SV-001 got last pow
Stage 2 - Multiple Slugnoids, SV-001s, Trevors, used abilities, got 1 pow
Stage 2 - same as above added ms attack, got 1 pow

DeleteI need some help on Saudi Arabia (Sunday); I do not have Hopper Mecha, but I do have Leona. Using Tarma to take out Abbas, I send in Leona immediately after and her skill to avoid the explosions. After that, I can repeat Leona, add Slugs, summon Madoka, etc. But I cannot get that last POW!
ReplyDeleteHi Edward!
ReplyDeleteOn Monday what do you mean with "No walking soldiers"?
-Only flying units (argh, that could be troublesome)
-only machine and flying unit (difficult, but I can do it)
-other?
I saved 3/4 Pows and I NEEEEEEED fat marco XD
For example, the SV-001, Di-Cokka, Elephant Slug, Nop-03 Sarubia.
Delete(i think Samurai Tank is fine too). If not mistaken, i do not use any walking soldier such as Marco, Tarma, Leona, Trevor.... :)
waaaaaaa I did it!!! Thank you man :D :D :D
ReplyDeleteby the way I used also 2 metal slug attack and no ap upgrade...
Haha. Glad that it helps :)
DeleteWell done!
Hi,
ReplyDeleteis it possible to win stage 3 whitout using medals ? i seems to be so hard for me .. how did you do ?
Hi Arnaud, in which area (week of the day) do you face difficulty?
Deletehi, i have difficulties in all areas. i had only unlocked fat eri and flying tara. all others bosses are too strong for me :s
Deletein world 1, i have all stars, but it stays hard. today on vietnam map, how can i do ?
for the friday stage 1 I think you need to focus
ReplyDelete- rank S
- blue soldier only
there is a third pow on the second stage, is someone know how to unlock him
for the third stage, i unlocked 2 pow in a row with only Leona, hopper mecha et sv001
i unlock a third pow in stage 3 but i dont know how...
Deleteand i still trying for the last pow, so if someone know i'm interested
hi Mickael C., you may refer to the comments from the 'saw'. He has stated his experience.
DeleteAt the same time, thanks for your sharing~
Yes i saw saw (sry for the pityful joke .....).
DeleteBut i do not have neither allen oneil, slugnoid, Donald morden and it use them in almost his every try. So it doesn't help me at all and i had to restart from the beginning
With 132 medals, buy Nadia or more medals earned and buy Leona to help us stage boss
ReplyDeleteHaven't tried out Nadia. How do you think? ;)
Deleteheey on friday stage 2 third pow i did with 1 NADIA 1 DI-COKKA 1 METAL CLAW and 1 SLUG GUNNER =) hoppe it will work for everyone =)
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
DeleteYou may post on the Daily Boss Challenge.
Hate to tell you this, but POW unlocking is Entirely Random. There are no conditions that effect it at all, as far as I can tell, other than one. The Radio Item that can be brought (or collected occasionally via daily rewards and such), will automatically force a POW to be unlocked. If there were set conditions for unlocking them, then the item would be a bit too game breaking surely.
ReplyDeleteYou can play the same mission over and over, the same way every time, and suddenly unlock 2 POWs, with no change in strategy. The point is, the game is trying to force you to buy the radio item, or a sortie point refill, so that you end up sending real money on additional medals, as is the Freemium marketing plan in almost every Freemium title.
That is why they don't list conditions for unlocking, there are none.
It is perfectly fine if you don't agree with this. Let other players to decide.
DeleteI personally will avoid myself from spending on game, such that i am used to go all ways to figure out the potentially hidden 'features' in any game.
Here are just my observations that could possibly boost the POW saving. You may still be able to save the pow without following this. But i would say it might require more attempts.
To unlock Friday (Russia) Pow's on second and third stage I used:
ReplyDeleteOnly Ralf without raising ap production. When I got the oportunity I started raising up ap prod and summoned another Ralf, used its special power and got 2 pow's at the second stage with this. I believe you can use Ralf, Clark, Trevor or Nadia for this.
At the thir stage I did the same and after raising ap I summoned Allen O'Neil and got another pow.
