- ▸Fast melee units flip close games.
- ▸Terrain density shifts win rate by ±10%.
Built for Tactical Brains
Strategy Gamers
You enjoy squeezing every extra percentage point of advantage out of a matchup. Tactica Engine lets you see how tiny list changes ripple through hundreds of games.
Warhammer 40,000 Commanders
Upload or build lists, test them against popular factions and archetypes, and learn which matchups are actually dangerous before you hit the table.
Simulation Enthusiasts
Seeded simulations, reproducible runs, and detailed battle logs for when you care about how the engine thinks – not just the final score.
How Tactica Engine: Adeptus Edition Works
Define the battlefield
Choose mission template, terrain preset, and basic scenario parameters. The sim handles the rest of the setup.
Load your armies
Build your list inside the app or load a saved army. Pick one or more opponent factions to test against.
Run simulations
Run anywhere from 50 to 1000 virtual battles using probabilistic combat resolution. Same seed, same results – great for sharing and debugging.
Read the debrief
See win rate, key turns, unit performance, and a concise tactical summary – without slogging through spreadsheets.
Key Features
Fast Matchup Testing
Test your list into multiple factions with hundreds of battles in a single run.
Reproducible Seeds
Lock each simulation to a specific seed so you can rerun, compare, and share identical scenarios.
Battle Replays
Drill down into representative games with turn-by-turn logs and key decision points.
Scenario Lab
A future high-mode playground for custom terrain, behaviours, house rules and experimental setups.
AI-Assisted Analysis
Higher tiers will add LLM-powered tactical debriefs, list suggestions, and "what if?" explorations.
Built for W40K First
Initial focus is Warhammer 40,000, with room to expand into other systems once the core engine is battle-tested.
Planned Tiers
During closed beta, Adeptus Edition is free to use with a demo key. Pricing will apply once the AI tiers go live.

Join the Adeptus Beta
Tactica Engine: Adeptus Edition is in closed beta. We're focused on validating the simulator, refining the UX, and learning how commanders actually use it. In this phase, only the simulation engine is active – no AI analysis tiers yet.
- ▸Early access to the simulator
- ▸Occasional short feedback prompts
- ▸No cost during beta (demo key required)
- ▸Best effort support, no guarantees
