The game is played out on a map, typically divided into territories, with players controlling various military units. The core gameplay involves strategic movement of units, production of new units, combat resolution, and economic management. TripleA features a sophisticated combat system that accounts for factors such as unit types, dice rolls, and terrain. It also supports multiplayer games, allowing players to compete against each other over a network or the internet.

TripleA is developed and maintained by a community of volunteers. Its open-source nature means that the source code is freely available for anyone to inspect, modify, and contribute to. This has led to a rich ecosystem of custom maps, rule sets, and ongoing development. The game can be played on Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.
