Tactics
	Basic Tactics: allows you to rearrange your troops just before combat, within 3 hex rows of the commanding hero.
	Advanced Tactics: allows you to rearrange your troops just before combat, within 5 hex rows of the commanding hero.
	Expert Tactics: allows you to rearrange your troops just before combat, within 7 hex rows of the commanding hero.

Tactics is a secondary skill, that allows hero to arrange his troops on the battlefield at the beginning of combat. However, if a hero is attacking another hero and both have Tactics at the same level, they cancel each other out, and neither of the heroes may arrange his army. If one of the heroes have higher level of Tactics, his skill is treated being on the same level as the remainder. For example, if hero with expert Tactics encounters a hero with basic Tactics the remainder becomes 2, which means that the hero's expert level Tactics is treated as advanced level Tactics.

Overview

• The battlefield is 15 hexes wide (and 11 high).
• Usually, you need a creature with at least 13 speed to be able to reach a 1-wide creature on the other side in one turn. Apart from (upgraded) Dragons, only the following creatures can do this: Phoenix, Archangel, Arch Devil, Firebird, Efreet Sultan, Dragon Fly. Silver Pegasi are 2-wide and have Speed 12 so they can attack immediately as well. Angels with Speed 12 are able to attack if the creature on the other side is 2-wide. Scorpicores, Red Dragons, Thunderbirds and Wyvern Monarchs are 2-wide and have 11 Speed. They can thus reach the other side if the creature is also 2-wide.
• With Expert Tactics, the distance is reduced to
