War tactics
War tactics are the two round choices, Tactic A and Tactic B, available in a War Squirrels encounter. One tactic combines with a fixed squad's three lane placements to create the plan resolved by the current script.
- Tactics per encounter
- Two: Tactic A and Tactic B.
- Planning information
- Enemy formation, terrain, lane indicators, effect text, and a tactic preview.
- Plan inputs
- Squad selection, lane placements, and one tactic.
- Plan status
- Adjustable without cost before confirmation.
- Resolution
- Deterministic for the same encounter and confirmed plan.
Tactic preview
The tactic display supplies effect text and a preview after the enemy plan and lane assignments are visible. This positions Tactic A and Tactic B as encounter-specific choices, interpreted alongside the displayed terrain and counter interactions.
Confirmed choice
The tactic remains part of a provisional plan until Confirm rehearsal. Before that point, lane placements and tactics can be revised or cancelled without cost. Confirmation starts the 60-120-second resolution.
Explained outcomes
The result identifies every lane's class-and-tactic value, terrain contribution, and disclosed counter contribution. Repeating an identical plan in the same scripted encounter produces the same explanation and outcome; a revised result follows a revised plan or encounter.
