This is an adaptation of the board game Twilight Imperium and it plays quite a bit differently from Axis and Allies. An explanation of the rules and a brief tutorial is provided lower down in this post. Some basic info: The map is setup with 5 factions, free-for-all. Less then 5 players is possible, your forces from different factions will not be able to share the same space however. (unless you mod this - or someone tells me how to make this fluid.) Alliances between human players can be made or broken at any time. I'll go through this row by row, from top to bottom.
