Well, I finally beat the normal campaign--slower than some around here, but I got it done (with an A-rank).
My, that last mission blew chunks--not because it was hard (it wasn't, compared to missions 25 and 27) but because I couldn't control the top screen. But other than that 23-28 were some of the best levels in any of the AW games--I was so happy when I 300-point S-ranked Ring of Fire.
Of course, the nice thing about beating NC is that you get access to the other, say, 50% of the game. Time to play through maps and unlock things. I may as well glue the AWDS card into the DS's slot--there's an easy 100 hours' worth of game here.
