Hi guys,

I wrote a free android app to help me play A&A.
See attached screenshots.

It’s called “Aid for Axis&Allies boardgame” on the google play store.

Current features:
- Battle calculator
  – Land and naval battles
  – with support for:
  — Combined arms
  — AAA air defense
  — Offshore bombardment)
  — Capital ship hull
  — Submarine suprise strike
  — Submarine versus air limitations
  – Calculation:
  — For both armies: roll total, hitpoints total and IPC cost
  — Advice (victory percentage)
  — Average IPC loss and IPC loss per unit type. (This feature is only free during BETA. In the final version, unlocking it forever will require a one-time modest fee.)
- Purchase and repair calculator
Features planned in future versions:
- IPC tracker:
  – Income calculator (territories and national objectives)
  – Budget in purchase screen
- Research and development support
- Adjustable battle kill order
Notes:
- Only supports second edition Axis&Allies Europe/Pacific 1940 rules.
- Currently in BETA mode.
- Currently only suited for tablets (because a big screen is needed to show the entire calculator).

Now works on tablets with an Android version (4.0.3 or higher) too.
Also includes a purchase unit calculator now, besides the land and naval battle calculators.
Oh, and the units have icons now :)

Hey everyone,

There’s a new app on the Apple App store called Ambition. It’s worth a look. It’s a fantastic A&A style game with kickass multiplayer. I’m kinda freaking out because it’s what i’ve wanted for like years haha.

Anyway I just wanted the community to know.

You know what I am talking about obviously! Funny how a misplaced ; can seem so deadly yet 100 of lines of code ready to roll back database transactions in case somebody kicks the power cord in the middle of a batch update never get noticed by the higher ups. Well until a fortune 500 company sues you because their database is corrupt

Knowing how much you will the battle with determines if the enemy can successfully counterattack you or not or even if its financially worth it. So you either go into a battle thinking “go so big I cannot be counter attacked” or you end up ‘dead zoning’ a territory then you only want to use just enough to take it. So if you are using 4-5 air units combined with 2-3 land units to clear out 2-3 enemy land units you want to win and have only 1 land unit left while your air units fly away. Winning a battle like that at the cost of a few airplanes is not success. In many battles you know the enemy can only counter attack you with a small land force, so you want to the battle 80% of the time with just enough forces that the enemy is 80% likely to take a larger IPC cost to counter attack your surviving force. I don’t mind winning the battle with 4 tanks and 3 infantry left knowing s/he is 72% likely to win a counterattack. The enemies 2 infantry and 6 fighters can no doubt counter attack me and win. I lose 29 IPC most of the time, but s/he loses 26 or 36 or 46 pretty much equally and a great chance of losing even more IPC to win the battle.

The other bar chart of value in AACalc is the IPC differential. Again, winning battles where the enemy loses 10 infantry and you win losing 4 tanks, 4 fighters and 2 bombers is going to lose you a war. It’s nice to enter a battle and determine not only the odds of success, and the distribution of likely outcomes vis-a-vis number of units remaining and lost but also the distribution of IPC differentials in various battle outcomes.

Again, using AACalc as an example running 1000 iterations of the battle of 20 tanks versus 14. There is a bottom section titled “Defender IPC losses in excess of Attacker IPC losses:”

This bar chart shows likely outcomes of the difference in IPC lost in the distribution of likely outcomes.

Maybe a new window or set of tabs where one one tab/window could contain the summery of the battle, what units started, where, other labels maybe, a second tab with a chart of likely outcomes as far as what units are lost and remaining, and a third tab with the distribution of IPC outcomes in the battle. That would capture the functionality of AACalc but in a much more modern GUI. Being able to resize the window and chart dynamically is great. Once you do it once you will re-use that code for every project. Being able to launch 2 or 200 windows is really no different in complexity but is really impressive having unlimited windows of information.

Hello everyone,

First post. Played my first A&A game as a kid if the late 80’s. Stopped playing in the early 90’s and was re-introduced with the game with the PC version in the late 90’s. Since then i go through phases on interest in little spells once a year. Long lost my PC version (just bought one from Ebay!) and have been in recent times using TripleA.

Anywho I got back in my A&A phase and see so many new developments in the board game (Revised and Anniversary Editions) and just realized a fe minutes ago TripleA has a Revised map but my question at last is there any plans to do a formal PC release of the Revised and even Anniversary editions?

As good as TripleA is, the AI is very week. (which they readily acknowledge as the only option is “Easy AI”) Ive longed for a new PC game not only for the new rules but also tougher AI. The AI can never cope with standard strategy “infantry push mech” and is not very sound with dead zone concepts.

Just wanted to see if anything is in the works.

Also if I may, are there any essays or published strategies for the Revised game? I used to love reading Don Rae’s strategies for the Classic game and would like to find something similar for the Revised version. (which i plan to start playing now)

BTW, what do fans prefer Revised or Anniversary? They look much different, what is kinda the default game for fans these days? Is Classic Dead?

Thanks in advance! Glad I stumbled across the site.
