Roberts[5] in 1953,[6][7] and self-published in 1954 under the company name of The Avalon Game Company.[8] Roberts sold the game on a mail order basis from his home in Baltimore for the next six years.[9]Tactics II is a revised version published by Avalon Hill in 1958, then reissued in 1961 and 1973. In 1972, the game was discontinued due to rising costs, but was redesigned in 1973 with less costly components and used as a loss leader as it was an introductory wargame.[10] In 1983, Avalon Hill released a 25th anniversary edition of the original Tactics, which did (for the first time) include the second map.{{clarifyme|date=November 2018|reason=what 2d map?}} PlayTactics pioneered many game mechanics which became standard in the board wargame industry, including the odds-ratio combat results table and variable movement costs for entering squares (later hexes) containing different types of terrain. It also evolved the use of cardboard counters which had been previously introduced with the game War Tactics or Can Great Britain Be Invaded?.[11] Unlike later board wargames which used a hexagonal grid superimposed on the game map, Tactics used a square grid. Pieces include the Armored units, Headquarter units, regular units, and specialized units consisting of mountaineers, para-troopers, and amphibious units.
