[quote name='crystalklear64']Wait, wait, wait.... what does this game have in common with Advanced Wars? It looks like you control no armies, your maps aren't world maps but in small areas, it just looks like a sweet tactics game.
There must be something I'm missing, feel free to clue me in.[/quote]
Aside from the CLEAR cues its taking from the visual style of advance wars....
the description of the game is nearly a dead on take on the series...
with the exception of it being pirate based... and yes... without LARGE armies... but instead smaller groups of pirates on smaller maps.
OVERVIEW
Test your skills on land or sea in "Pirate Battle". Choose from 10 uniquely skilled pirates under your command, each with their own way of fighting. With villains to battle and treasure to be had, it’s up to you to guide your pirates to victory! A game world full of interaction lets you look for other answers, whether you build a bridge across the water or board an enemy ship and destroy it from the inside out. When you have seen enough of the world of Pure Blue, the battle continues in the Pirate Battle multiplayer mode, where up to four players can battle it out with treasure on the line!
* Key Features: PIRATES: Recruit up to 10 unique characters at your command, each with their own special ability. 5 different enemy teams with new crews and special powers will try to stop you.
* Interact: Push boxes, roll barrels, or fire cannons. Hide in buildings to avoid enemy attacks, or pillage the buildings yourself to find treasure!
* Tactics: Powerful AP system lets you determine when to move, when to fight, and when to hold back. Dangerous terrain and special abilities make your choices count.
* Terrain: Sail the world of Pure Blue on a customizable pirate ship. Visit ports to upgrade your equipment, search for treasure on land, or fight a variety of villains on the high seas.
