Hasbro 1998 Axis & Allies on Windows 7

Dear Sirs and Madams,

I’d like to introduce you my Microsoft Excel based IPC calculator/tracker for Axis & Allies Global 1940 2nd. My A&A hommies and I always forget to adjust the territory at any time during the game so I developed this Excel table.

It serves several functions :

track and calculate IPCs with territories and national objectives (few have to be adjusted manual (SZ125, Med, …) [sheet: IPC track]

calculate Purchases per 1 round [sheet: purchase round]

calculate all rounds [sheet: purchase chart])

calculate land and sea battles (my dice colors are 1:=beige, 2:= blue, 3:= red, 4:= yellow, therefore the dice colors)

And here is:

Please don’t hesitate to ask if there are some questions.
Thanks for your feedback!

@barney:

Not that I’m aware of. You could probably copy/paste some stuff from the rule book I would think. Might just have to type away : ) Do small portions at a time so as not to be overwhelmed : )

Yea I like live play for the “gut feeling” battles as opposed to battle calc. Battle calc has it’s uses, especially for testing stuff, but I think the live thing gives more of a “real” feel than pbf where you can take as much time as needed to make the best play. Both are fun though, just a little different

I will go at it then - once I am done I’ll open-source the json, so other people can use that in projects :)

Agreed on that battle-calc thing. I will leave it out of the app, as it is intended as a game-aid during play

so i too was disappointed that the link for the game no longer works, but i still have the old cd rom as well as the 1.3.3 patch from maybe 15 years ago. i like the 1998 version of the game, but perhaps i will try the triple a version at some point. i will gladly help anyone interested in getting the old version of the game. for me i wanted to play it without the cd, so i used daemon tools lite (free) to mount and image of the disc in a virtual drive (i use windows 10). if you explore the auto load file and select compatibility preferences/ windows 95- (yeah i know) it launches and plays the game perfectly and all the cinematics are intact. i did have to apply the patch as well. i hope this helps someone else.

i also found the 6.0 files for windows 7 on my old pc, so if you are looking for those (which were in the old link that no longer works) apparently i picked that up a while back too. just pm me and i’ll drop box whatever you are looking for.
thanks

I have played it

This is what we’ve been waiting for! It’s an app for iPad called Ambition. Can’t post links so just look for it on the app store. It’s really good

@teraff:

I have just received the Axix & Allies CD-ROM game, but it did not come with a manual.
Do you have any idea where I can get a copy of the rules for the CD-ROM game?
Thanks,

All links are outdated/broken, there is no additional valuable information in this thread.

So it is unstickied now.

Will the Iron Blitz work on Windows Vista?  I know that the Hasbro version doesn’t.
