Tactics is a board wargame published in 1954 by Avalon Hill as the company's first product.[2] Although primitive by modern standards, it and its sequel, Tactics II, signalled the birth of modern board wargaming for the commercial market. Tactics is generally credited as being the first commercially successful board wargame.
