Talk:Tactics (game)

Fair use rationale for Image:Tactics II cover.jpg
Image:Tactics II cover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Hex vs Squares
It appears this quote now deleted about a Hex map in Tactics is derived from this quote [search page: "saw a photograph of one of the RAND"] which is from The Art of Wargaming (1990), Perla, p. 116. While the general-staff.com says Roberts "introduced hexagons to commercial wargaming in the early 1950s", which can only be Tactics, there is no evidence of that, and why general-staff.com is an unreliable source - it is an assumption based on the Perla quote, but Perla never says Tactics used hexagons. I believe the earliest AH game to use a hex map is a 1961 Gettysburg re-release. -- Green  C  04:59, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
