History VideoGame / GuerrillaWar

* BadassNormal: The final boss (Batista in the Japanese original). He spams missiles and bombs, and can take A LOT of damage before he goes down.

* JungleJapes: Stage 1.

* MacrossMissileMassacre: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzhxFNDBTUo The Final Boss]].

* [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed No Politicians Were Harmed]]: In the original Japanese release, the player's characters are UsefulNotes/CheGuevara and UsefulNotes/FidelCastro, and the main villain from the same release is UsefulNotes/FulgencioBatista.

* ThoseTwoBadGuys: The NES version has the Plow Brothers, two big burly men who ride a plow. The first time you destroy their plow, they toss your characters into a mine. Later, you encounter them in a city and they toss you into a sewer. You get your revenge when you fight their plow the second time, as they fail to get out before it explodes.

* BananaRepublic

* HopelessBossFight: At the end of Stage 6 (the first half of the city) in the NES version, you encounter the Plow Brothers again, only this time they're not inside a plow. You can't do anything, and no matter how long you try to dodge them, they'll throw you into a sewer in the next stage.

* MadeOfIron: The Big Bad in the NES version can take more damage than a few tanks ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzhxFNDBTUo see here]]). WHAT.

* [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed No Politicians Were Harmed]]: In the original Japanese release, the player's characters are UsefulNotes/CheGuevara and UsefulNotes/FidelCastro. We kid you not.
** The main villain from the same release is UsefulNotes/FulgencioBatista. Again, [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer we kid you not]].

''Guerrilla War'' followed the adventures of two unnamed rebel commandos (UsefulNotes/CheGuevara and UsefulNotes/FidelCastro in the Japanese version) as they raid an unnamed Caribbean Island (Cuba in the original[[note]]The game was originally loosely based on the real life Cuban Revolution of the late 50s-early 60s[[/note]]) in order to free it from the rule of an unnamed tyrannical dictator (Fulgencio Batista). Along the way the players vanquish hordes of unnamed enemy soldiers (originally part of the Batista regime) while attempting to rescue hostages, collecting weapons from troopers and operating tanks.

* KarmaHoudini: The BigBad in the arcade version manages to run away from the fight. In the NES version, you give him a well-deserved killing.

* TankGoodness: As with IkariWarriors, you can ride in a tank, which is immune to regular bullets. However, a single explosive will put it out of commission. The same goes for enemies in tanks — you have to hit them with grenades or special weapons.
