One of the main differences is that while there are five nations-Russia, Germany, England, Japan, and the United States-there are only two sides, the eponymous Axis and Allies. And, where Risk uses simple world domination as its basis, Axis & Allies focuses on World War II. Virtually any way that the Risk idea could be made more complex, has been done here. That's really where the similarities end. Both are turn-based, and use dice rolls to determine the outcome of combat. The two games are similar in that both use world domination as their basic theme. Please advice.Axis & Allies is like nothing so much as an extremely advanced and complicated game of Risk.
