TripleA is a free (under GPL) turn based strategy game based on Axis & Allies board game. A wide variety of map scenarios have been developed for TripleA [1](World War II, Punic Wars, Napoleonic wars, etc.)[2][3] with a variety of rules, units[4] and many options (such as "low luck" which reduces the number of dice rolled making game depend more on strategy).[5]

TripleA is programmed in Java and can run on personal computers with Java SE installed.[6]

For live multiplayer games, the community maintains two lobbies for the most current Stable and Unstable versions.[7] It is easy to find opponents online due to the popularity of the game: 10.000 downloads every month.[8] TripleA also features a Play by Email mode and several AIs.[7] for single player mode.

Some TripleA designer also worked on FreeCol, and Open General.

TripleA has been compared to Risk[2][9]
