Features & Capabilities

Exactly how many Panzers does it take to capture Moscow if Stalin has piled 23 Russian infantry onto it? How many fighters do you need to send with those two infantry to ensure they take India? With the Axis and Allies Companion, you'll know!

Enter, estimate, and battle! The Companion accurately estimates battle outcomes and odds of winning, takes you step by step through the die rolls in a specific battle, and supports the latest Axis and Allies versions and units.

LIMITATIONS Note that this application is a simulator and dice roller, NOT the actual Axis and Allies game itself. This free version is provided to evaluate the simulator and is restricted to a very limited number of units of units; to permanently remove that restriction, a one-time in-app purchase is offered. (We kind of hate in-app purchases, but this way one can validate sim accuracy works before committing).

Features:

optimization mode that figures out the minimum number of IPC's required to win
Estimation features shows odds of winning, expected IPC loss, outcome distributions, and expected number of surviving units at the end of the battle for land, sea, and amphibious battles
Battle feature allows you to play through the battle on your device by simply tapping "next round" instead of rolling physical dice
Displays exact details on the dice that were rolled as well as a percentile rating of exactly how lucky (or unlucky) the roll was. This value is computed by finding the z-score for the deviation of the actual rolls from the expected outcome.
Includes tactical bomber, mechanized infantry, and cruiser units for the new 1940/1942 editions, and supports damaged battleship + damaged carrier calculations (no other sims seem to include this)
Includes support for the stackable AA guns in newer versions
Turn on advanced technologies (advanced artillery, heavy bombers, super subs, etc.) and adjust simulation quality
Custom sound effects for each unit and battle type (can be silenced)
Optimized, crisp WWII themed graphics for the high-resolution Retina display
Intuitive UI designed specifically for the iPhone allows for rapid entry by tapping a button or numeric entry via keypad (tap the text-box)
Unit name overlays can be turned on

Rule sets for:

New 1914 Edition
1940 and 1942 Editions
50th Anniversary Edition
Revised Editions (2004 Europe, Pacific, and World)
Original Edition

User Reviews

Reviewers praise the app’s strong battle-simulation capabilities, turn-by-turn probability outputs, and a polished UI with charts that improve over the original. However, widespread concerns center on purchasing gates and unreliable in-app purchase/restoration flows, which restrict access unless users pay. Accuracy of odds and unit statistics (notably in 1914) is questioned, and free use is limited by unit-count caps. Some reports of bugs/crashes exist. Overall, the tool is valuable for planning Axis & Allies battles, but pricing, reliability, and accuracy issues temper enthusiasm.

Pros

Powerful battle simulation with turn-by-turn probability outputs.
Improved UI with charts, clearer than the original.
Easy to use and provides actionable probability insight for battles.
Active support and regular updates include new variations of Axis & Allies and bug fixes.

Cons

Paywall gating: key features, like large battles, require paying for upgrades, limiting free use.
In-app purchase and restore issues: upgrade flows and restoring purchases often fail or are unclear.
Calculation accuracy concerns: odds, unit stats, and variant rules (notably 1914) are off.
Restrictions on unit count in free version (limited to small battles) and unclear max unit limits.

Why do I have to pay to do everything when it’s free to download?

You can’t do battle with more than 6 units unless you pay $4 so essentially the app is useless, the only time you would calculate the odds is for large scale battles, which you can’t do unless you pay.

by Pe*****, 2024-07-16

This app seems pretty good for the most part. I’m not very good at calculating probabilities, but from what I can tell fighters are pretty useless. Getting more dice rolls increases your chances of getting a hit much more than buying a more expensive unit with odds of one, two, or even three more faces on a 6-sided die. Buying 4 infantry instead of 1 fighter increases your chances of of a hit and your opponent must land 4 hits instead of 1. The concept is the same for armor on land offense subs for sea offense. The app doesn’t do a very good job, however, of accurately calculating the odds of fighters vs subs. It tends to show both sides with close to zero chance of winning.
