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.
Axis and Allies Battle Calculator on the iPhone - 5 free codes!

Hi folks,
I’m the author of a new app for the iPhone/iPod. It’s a battle calculator that can tell you your probability of winning a battle between a set of units. Screenshots and more information here: http://aasim.freezingblue.com
I thought I would do a little advertising - and give away some free codes at the same time. I have 5 free codes that can be used with a US account on the iTunes store. If you would like one, I will give them away to the first 5 people who request them in this thread. Also, you must send me a private message so that I can give you your code.
Thanks!

Everyone should get one for their ipod (sorry I don’t own a iphone but if I did, I would recommend it for your iphone).

Done!
5 stars!
Any chance you might add another feature that shows most most likely scenarios per round?
Thanks

Not sure exactly what you mean. After X number of rounds of combat what you have left? Or loaded presets where you can touch a button and it would automatically load a specific configuration?

I was confused by that as well.

Sorry about the confusion.
I remember someone had a battle calculator that showed all the different scenario round by round.
Let’s say you attack with 6 inf vs. 1 inf, it would show you as the attacker.
Scenario: Attacker Defender
Scenario 1: 0 hit 0 hit
Scenario 2: 1 hit 0 hit
Scenario 3: 2 hits 0 hit
Scenario 4: 3 hits 0 hit
Scenario 5: 4 hits 0 hit
Scenario 6: 5 hits 0 hit
Scenario 7: 6 hits 0 hit
Scenario 8: 0 hit 1 hit
…
Scenario 14: 6 hits 1 hitIt would give the % chance of each scenario and also per round.
I can’t find it again.
+1 karma for trying to understand my confusing post.

I think I know the one you’re talking about gnasape, it’s my favorite one. Are you thinking of www.frood.net/aacalc ?

Hmmm, that’s an interesting idea. I will put it on my list - but honestly, I’m not sure I’d put that in. It seems like an excessive amount of information with no good way to show it cleanly. What are you trying to discern - what your odds of losing/winning per round are?

You might want to look at the calculator in the link freezing. It does several things and in my opinion is about the best out there.

Frood’s calculator? Yes, it has many good options. My aim was for something quick and easy to use. If you are an expert player, you may want more in-depth statistics.

I dont get it…
