Well “back in my day”, growing up as a teen/young-adult in the 1980s, we didn’t have much in the way of computer games. Back then every game was a board game of some type for the most part, and while I did play extensively the more “grognard” hard-core board wargames like just about everything from Avalon Hill and SPI, and Axis and Allies was just another game I got into in my youth which was simpler to play with my friends. There was always something “beer and pretzels” about Axis and Allies back in the 1980s that to this day still attracts me to the game. I’ve recollected (is that a word) and customized my current 2nd-Edition version of the game, and spent quite a bit on extra units, printed game-boards and the like… all with few people to play against, but it’s part game, part collectible, and its fun either way.

I got an “Internal applet error” saying that the browser doesn’t support this property or method (Using IE)

100% non-functional using Firefox (an increasingly popular browser due to IE’s security risks)

It’s very nice in Internet Explorer. Havn’t checked for accuracy. (AKA, check it against other calculators that are trusted.)
And yes, it does not work at all in FireFox. You should really fix that.

Looks like the basic Firefox 2.0 issues are ironed out….actually less issues than with IE which must specify the Java Sun JRE (see below).
So you can also link directly to the page:

Kinda slick with some of the interface ideas you have there.
FYI, I just found another neat “real-time” calculator app today: http://www.twmacinta.com/myjava/allies/
Not comprehensive, but good for a lot of simple and accurate calculations. I really wish I could streamline mine to run 100,000x, but I’m not a coding expert. It may be with the complexity I have put in with the kind of info it tracks, it’s just not possible.
Anyhow, this new one is kinda cool. Good job.

Am I missing an update?

I’ve updated the site a bit. You need Sun Java to make it work….there is a download link on the site.
