Tactiquest

Tactiquest is a tactical combat TTRPG with the following design goals:

• Strategic, fast-paced fights with no wasted turns and no stuns, meaning time spent on fights is boiled down to interesting decisions and impactful abilities rather than waiting for a good die roll to land a hit or shrug off being stunned.
• A wide variety of flavorful and focused character classes designed to capture specific, compelling fantasies and feel wildly distinct from each other.
• A mostly diceless approach that brings player input to the forefront, using dice only to set up situations, never to resolve them.
• An emphasis on resource management and attrition, tuned to fit the pace of a typical campaign.
• Player-driven sandbox campaigns designed to facilitate exploration and setting your own goals.
• A buffet of evocative and interesting monsters who are easy to run while providing a more interesting challenge than simple bags of hit points.

Tactiquest is currently in playtesting so you may run into balance issues, typos, inconsistencies or clearly unfinished sections; the bestiary also only has about half the planned number of included monsters.
