Risk or Axis vs Allies?

Any word on either of these games being ported over to the iPhone?

LuxTouch is basically Risk, so check that one out.

The two games are so dissimilar that it hardly bears discussion. Insofar as they are games, both serve their purpose well, but A and A is a war simulator and Risk is a power monger game only.

My hope is that diplomacy, a game which works more slowly and could be done very well on a turn-based iphone platform will come to the app Store. i cannot imagine a better portable platform for the classic game of intrigue.

Diplomacy would be awesome.

A game with some similarities to Axis&Allies is Uniwar. Check that out as well.

Lux DLX is an awesome version of Risk.

Review and Screenshots of it here.

I don't understand how this became an issue of the games being similar. I just wanted to know if risk or axis and allies had been ported over to the iPhone as I loved playing these two games growing up.

Diplomacy is another that I would like to see show up.
