- Waylon is a jerk.
Besides that, he is actually a pretty useful character. His CO Power makes his flyers nearly invincible! However, I prefer Tasha because she is just more awesome than this guy. Although his theme is pretty good, it's still too rockin' for me. All these kinda heavy themes are the reason why I prefer the music of the previous games more.
...Hey! Yesterday was Mar. 1, 2013! 1 year from when I first joined UA-cam!
Hooray!
Image/Music not made by me, just extended by me.

First time meeting Waylon: "What a silly theme, im sure he is actually a really lovely fellow under that sunglass"
Firsttime fighting Waylon: "Oh no."
when "i fight for my satisfaction" ment "yeah; i do what i want even at the expense of my own units"
I thought that distorted beginning with the guitar riff was suspicious and hiding something, then comes the mission where he helps you and his full theme sounds.
"I'm actually sided with the bad guys right now aren't I?"
I like how if he's being idle and skips his turn, you only hear that small guitar rift.
When you actually go against him, his theme kicks it up.
Exactly! In his first mission (where he's running away) I thought his theme was pretty stupid. Then, I actually had to fight him, and his guitars totally kicked me in the face!
Doyololoy yo Doy doy do Doyololoy do do.
*Next turn*
@@martindouge4504 *WAILING ELECTRIC GUITAR SOLO*
I knew he was going to be a villain because Tasha slipped a unit by to attack him. On his turn he got to attack back so I heard more of the song. Knew immediately that this guy is a future boss.
"Oh, this guy's a clown"
Actual theme kicks in
"Aaaahhhh! Run! Run! Bombers, war tanks, and dusters everywhere!"
Brenner: _We've been patrolling the region looking for survivors who might need our help._
Waylon: _"Helping" survivors? Helping yourself to their money, I hope! Ha ha ha ...whew... Wait, you serious?_
Man, I love this dude xD.
He's the CO you hate to love. He reminds me of Tony Stark in a way.
I wish more games implemented the musical bait and switch this theme does
The only other instance of such musical bait n switch in Video game music I can remember is "Pokey means business" from Earthbound, but it takes about a minute before the switch.
Pokey Means Business rocks. Another example is Gangplank Galleon from DKC.
Brenner: NOOO YOU CAN'T JUST KILL GENERAL FORSYTHE HE LITERALLY SURRENDERED THIS IS LITERALLY A WAR CRIME
Waylon: Yes.
Haha gun go *brrrrrr*
and then he got owned by a trainee cadeet and by an angry pilot with a cleavage a little to big
Because who cares about war crimes when society as we once knew it has effectively ceased to exist when Sturm finally landed a good meteor strike?

Imagine living in a post apocalypse and abiding by some kind of """moral""" code
Waylon: LMAO, This is a fucking apocalypse. What were you expecting bro?
Waylon is every sense a bully
1) he is an air specialist, focussing on hit and run, basically just prime bully tactics of punching you in the gut, taking your money, and running before you can call the teacher
2) his CO bonus and power, literally makes him near untouchable briefly, and for a bully, it's the equivalent of holding the victims head as their little arms flail and fail to hit you as you then kick them
3) my man never actually properly fights unless he's REALLY got back up, and folds super easily. Classic Bully psychology
And lastly
4) his name literally sounds like Wailing, as in, to wail on someone when beating them up
This man was built from the ground up to be a huge bully and I love how it manifests into both flavour and mechanics
His name in the other localization is Finn because it's so satisfying to Finn-ish him off once and for all. ;)
@@AgentIllusion73
was actually trying to see what happened to him and funny enough, it never says that he actually died at the end of the game.
That means he probably fled and is living fine God knows where. He got away with everything.
The guy that doesnt care about his own soldiers gets one of the highest air-defense-boost... pretty epic CO at all.
+ComRidleyW While it definitely seems ironic at first glance, I think it's to reflect his self-preserving nature. He is a coward after all.
+SuperPaltos23 That...was just something I never thought of - why does Waylon just makes me think about the chopper-commander in Apocalypse Now?
Personally, I think his behavior just suits a pilot vey well. Reminds me about some diary entries of German and British pilots that fought in WWII...they were a bit disturbing after all. I guess it's hard to stay sane if you're flying attacks on targets that are only as big as ants and seem hardly moving.
+SuperPaltos23 either that or every soldier is looking to save there own skin.
Well none of the enemy factions in this game care about their own soldiers, so it's not really ironic.
And wanting to save your own life is not cowardly, it's normal... lol
I'll have to admit...
... This guy makes a more convincing "Evil Andy" than the one from Advance Wars 1.
I think this guy knows about airports though xD
+Cldude2013 that is what makes him evil
Now that i think about it, why would they clone a child who doesn't know airports, twice.
Now he can have his cake and icecream. He can do whatever he wants brother man
@@butteredsalmonella perhaps just because of that, cause He's a kid, and what's better than striking your enemy when they lower their guards thinking "hey that's our little kid!"?, and then boom they get blown up
Every time he talks, I immediately think of Johnny Bravo.
I thought that too lol, check ma pecks hoo ha man I'm pretty~
He'd be Johnny Bravo if you dyed his hair, gave him a black shirt and blue pants... his hairstyle and sunglasses are already there, no?
goldskarr
same here brother man
goldskarr same! Its because of his hair isnt it?
He does give some Duke Nukem vibes
Just completed this game on DS emulator for andriod!
0:00 = flight of the coward
0:03 = Airbourne Apocalypse
I love all the themes in the advance wars series, sure they are short, but what makes them special is the fact that they just shout personality all over them! By listening to their themes, you instantly learn who these commanders are!
Even the titles are fitting ni matter which version you may have.
Flight of the coward is one of my favorites in days of ruin.
You ever notice how that first mission of saving Waylon involves him taking only 3 seconds to end his turn....?
And then....when you fight him for real....the DAMN GUITAR RIFFS KICK IN. IT'S ON NOW, BOY!
HIT ME!
It really suits his personality and how you interact with the New Laurentian/Rubinelle Army. You start off allying with them against the Zephyrian/Lazurians after being convinced by Sigismundo/Greyfield. And while you're allies with them, you have to protect him. It's here where his goofy and laid back personality takes place, but it drops hints that he's a selfish jerk who isn't to be trusted. Once it becomes clear that Sigismundo is a madman and needs to be stopped, Finn/Waylon takes the most selfish course of action and fights you, because he only cares about himself. Then the theme kicks in, and it becomes darker and more sinister, much like him. The goofy facade is gone, and a serious threat has taken its place.
@@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor Wow so interesting. Maybe I should play this game again.
Honestly, aerial units needed a CO like Waylon, because if something can hit them, it either doesn't do anything or it's a one-hit-kill.
Absolutely. Bombers are way too easy to down by cheap units, it was about time we got a defensive option for air units.
Mechagodzilla128 to be fair, such an offensive powerhouse needs a counterbalance
@@Mechagodzilla128 At least bombers can win if they get the first strike. Copters cant usually do jackshit on AA.
@@clownplayer7265 unless you play Sensei, even if ofc the counter attack usually deal just as much damage if the unit is either full health or on defansive terrain
Let's bag us a hero boys!

*COMPRESSION*
w/e happened to the composer for this game? He used to consistently make amazing ost's for nintendo games and now he's just dissapeared. Dare I say it, he had the potential to be the next Yoko Shimomura....
Apparently, the composer is Yoshito Sekigawa, who was formerly known as Yoshito Hirano. Sekigawa is still with Nintendo with games like Smash Bros Ultimate and Paper Mario Origami King.
@@lostanimeworld11 ORIGAMI KING???? That explains why that soundtrack was so amazing..but I'd never have guessed
@@lokao9712 Both are intelligent systems, so it makes sense.
Composed for Codename Steam too right?
The 'connecting' repeat of the track is a perfect smug laughing at the player. Almost like a taunt.
I hope to see an AW game on Switch eventually. Or something along the lines of Days of Ruin, I can’t say how much I loved this game. And this mission with his theme kicking me in the balls from my initial impression of Waylon being nothing but a coward.
Well, Advance Wars 1 and 2 are getting a full-fledged remake for the Switch so there you go. Makes me want to see a double pack of Advance Wars Dual Strike and Days of Ruin as well.
@@DesertRainReads yeah I was happy to see it in the Nintendo Direct, hopefully they’ll bring Dual Strike and Days of Ruin as well.
@@DespinaValnir I am sure they will, should this double pack sell well, I have a hunch they will call on WayForward to port the other two.
@@DesertRainReads I have no idea how a remade days of ruin would look, but I just hope they don't ever remove the serious tone days of ruin had, it's what set it apart from others
@@ivanvladimir0435 I also hope they just go with remade drawings instead of 3d
Time for Waylon to start wailin’
I hope this is the sole purpose for the name change
This makes for one mean alarm clock in the morning.
It would make an even better ring tone for when your boss calls you.
Albert wesker + Ned Flanders = Waylon
this shit oozes "HERE I FUCKIN COME"
With a theme like this, you'd think Waylon is a CO so terrifyingly powerful he makes AW2 Sturm look like a little bitch in comparison.
But nah, he's just like "hehe, flying defense go upupupup"
@@davepanpa5787 fascinating
To be fair, virtually indestructible air units are quite scary

Waylon feeds the Chaos Gods
Anyone else hear those choirs in the background?
No.
I do
...Okay I guess I do now.
Holy his theme goes hard, you'd expect something else from a song with such name. Wish there was more clean version to listen. Also that start is really fun, glad it's heard inside the whole theme here and there, especially before the loop.
Why Days of Ruin suffer from a bad sound quality, this and Tabitha theme... AW 1, 2 and DS didn't had such a problem. Like it's not even low bitrate, just a messy composing?
*Brother, man!*
The funny part is that not many people notice this guy has a mustache
Yeah :)
Hrm... You sure that's not just part of his mouth? Then again, when a person grins, there wouldn't be a dark spot above their teeth... I actually googled it too, but I'm still not certain... Dangit Waylon, you gave me a big enough headache with your mission. You don't need to give me another...
Wait he had a mustache!?
How did i not see...
Likeok4 if he smiles it disappears so no mustache xD
Jeffrey Boyer
Maybe his mustache hates being seen when hes smiling and it hides which is for some reason most of the time in the darn game.
Thank you for extending this track, I have added it to my programming playlist.
Haha the first three seconds of his theme is pretty silly, i bet this guy is only a goofy wacky cowardly comic relief character and not an evil narcissistic psycopath Haha
And thats how the speakers on my DS stopped working.
"Oh yeah! Hit me!!"
That guy's character design always reminded me of Jeff Goldblum for some reason... that role would have suited him well back in the day.
"It's Whalin' time! That never gets old..."
The chad coward.
best theme from DoR.
The older Advanced Wars so broken/overpowered as hell. Eagle + Sasha = Insta win. (eagle's hyperdrive allows all vehicles to move another turn on full mobility. Sasha's Rallying Cry jumps up FoV and movement for all infantry and allows them to instantly capture.) You were LITERALLY able to insta-cap the enemy HQ in one turn from all the way across the map.
+Uriel de Vries (Anhrak) Hey, and this guy here in DoR gives you immortal air Units - even Eagle would dream about that ^^
+ComRidleyW true, but air isn't as powerful in DoR, and planes can't capture ground.
Uriel de Vries Thats true, but even in DoR you don't want an enemy bomber to destroy your ground army because your anti air was destroyed or cant kill the enemy planes.
+ComRidleyW well only their defense goes up, and missles do a hell of a lot damage to start with.
+Uriel de Vries (Anhrak) Even though I hate to admit it, Waylon's CO power is very good. His bombers can 1 shot AA units on plains, take 24% from missiles, and take 17% from AA units. Also, Sasha? I think you're thinking of Sami.
This theme is perfect. "Flight of the coward"-- vicious, brutal, desparate, selfish. People like Waylon are what make the world a bad place.
Adder's theme is still the most metal.
Bro what it obviously olaf
The song "I'm a Pilot" by Dos Gringos comes to mind when thinking about this guy.
Deadlock ending: every player of TF2 will use Engineer so their Sentry will battle.
This is such an amazing theme. I hope Days of Ruin get a remake so it gets updated for modern instruments.
Yes.
I agree
I got a 5 minute ad from a pick up artist before this video...
BADASS GUITAR
COMPLETE GLOBAL SATURATION
Post-apocalyptic Flanders
Funny revelation: Waylon's Japanese name is "Dieter"
Waylon, Gage, and Tabitha got the best themes {imho}
Pretty similar names here. Not enough for me to prefer one over the other.
Alternative part of his bio (European version): Finn is egotistical and vain
NOW EAGLE IS A DORK....

So long waylon.
He reminds me of Gary Oak.
I'm gary oak and I don't give a fuck!
I'm waylon and I don't give a fuck!
Likes an indian song w/ metal i guess
lmao
What is that that he is carrying?
His jacket
A... Spiked Jacket... OK...
Spiked..? Maybe your eyes are fucked dude, but it is defintely a jacket, and it looks pretty normal.
Looks like a club to me.............
random guy Maybe it is time for you to get glasses, if you haven't already..
