Advance Wars Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Green Earth — The entry incorrectly states there are only four nations in the Advance Wars canon; Black Hole is recognized as a fifth nation/faction in the series lore (specifically Advance Wars 2).

Northern Alliance — The entry states the Northern Alliance was formed in late 1996 (often cited as October 1996) as a response to the Taliban's capture of Kabul on September 27, 1996. In reality, the United Islamic Front for the Salvation of Afghanistan (Northern Alliance) was of

Northern Alliance — The entry claims the alliance's headquarters moved from Taloqan to Badakhshan after September 5, 2000. While Taloqan fell to the Taliban on September 5, 2000, the headquarters had already been based in Taloqan and subsequently moved to Badakhshan, but the phra

Orange Star — Referencing a 'delay until 2004' for the original Advance Wars release implies false development history, as no such delay existed.

Black Hole — The entry incorrectly states that Hawke was present during the original Advance Wars campaign (referred to as Cosmo Land); canonically, Hawke was introduced in Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising as Sturm's second-in-command.

Black Hole — The entry claims Hawke served as Sturm's second-in-command during the Cosmo Land campaign; this is incorrect as Hawke does not appear in the original game and only appears in Black Hole Rising.

Battle for the North — The entry states that the Battle for the North is the opening arc of the Orange Star Campaign in the original Advance Wars, but the Orange Star Campaign in the original game does not have an arc officially called 'Battle for the North'; this is an invented fan

Battle for the North — The entry mentions 'Petal Ocean' as a geographic feature, but the original Advance Wars does not use the term 'Petal Ocean'; the ocean is simply referred to as the sea or ocean without that specific name.

The Final Battle — The Orange Star Campaign in the original Advance Wars has 10 missions, with 'The Final Battle' being Mission 10.
