Posted about this game some time ago, decided to re-post this open source game for updating the links and for the good selections of mods.
TripleA is a free turn based strategy game and board game, similar to Risk, or Axis & Allies. Known for its multiplayer on the online lobby, it also allows Play-By-Email and network (LAN) play, as well as single player vs AI or hotseat. It has over 100 games and maps that can be downloaded from the user community. It is open source, needing only Java 8 to run (can run on Windows, Mac, Linux, etc). Supports savegames, encrypted dice gen, low luck, and other options. Recreate World War 2 with the Axis pushing through to Moscow and Japan devouring the Pacific, or recreate Napoleon‘s march across Europe, or Rome defeating the Carthaginian Empire, or even Sauron conquering Middle Earth, or Zombies taking over America! If you have ever played a boardgame with plastic/virtual pieces around, roll dice, conquer the lands of your enemy, & build new pieces to conquer with, you will be able to jump right into TripleA!
The Napoleon: Total War demo will take you through the new and playable “War on Land” tutorial as well as the epic land Battle of Ligny, one of the many historical scenarios included in the full version of the game.
The following are pbem (play by email) online strategy games. Please note i have excluded from this list Age of Conquest cause i found a virus on the game page, but the others games seems fine.
A Play-by-Email Game of Kings and Conquest
