Description
Tactical Operations covers the optional rules available to expand the core rules presented in Total Warfare. It includes extreme terrain and a host of Advanced & Experimental Equipment.
Tac Ops was awarded Best Miniatures Rules at Origins in 2009.[1]
In June 2020 the content of Tactical Operations was split into two new books that are sold separately: Tactical Operations: Advanced Rules and Tactical Operations: Advanced Units & Equipment. The original joined edition is no longer available.
From the back cover
| “ | Take your warfare to a whole new level of excitement! Deploy under cover of exotic weather and severe planetary conditions. Surprise your enemy with your mastery of new battlefield tactics—from artillery to command-level comms to minefields—as well as cutting-edge, prototype technologies! A daring commander can take advantage of any or all of these... if he's brave enough to seize the moment!
Tactical Operations is the one-source reference for advanced rules that apply to on-world operations. It includes new movement and combat options, an extensive Advanced Weapons and Equipment section, and the rules for playing and constructing advanced Support Vehicles and Mobile Structures. |
