Tactical Legends is an upcoming turn-based tactics video game for Microsoft Windows. The game has been through the Steam greenlight process,[1] and was released in December 2016.

Vera gaming was not a game developer when it opened in 2010, instead developing and optimizing software for different industrial enterprises. The studio is made up of a small team of five programmers and designers that serve local industrial companies.[4] The collective of the studio, consisting of hardcore gamers, had the idea of creating a video game for a number of years. In July 2015, after the Unreal Engine became free, the team began to develop Tactical Legends. The game was later submitted to the Steam Greenlight program.[when?]
Units
A unit refers to the various characters in the game.
- The King is a ranged unit with short attack distance, low action points, a low attack rate, and low health. However, the king is equipped with heavy armor as well as the benefit of attacking twice in the same turn.[5] The King is a critical unit, killing the opponents king wins the match.
- The swordsman is a melee unit with high health points and medium armor.[6]
- The archer is a ranged unit with a high range and high mobility, resulting in the ability to cross large swaths of the battlefield in one movement if they have not previously used that turn. Archers are light units who wear no armor and have low health points.[7]
- The healer has no attack, low health points, no armor, and only moderate mobility, but possesses a limited range healing ability, and can add health to friendly units even if the units health is at its maximum.[8]
- Assassins are very mobile, ranged units. They have low health points and no armor, but the assassins can poison their targets, sapping their health.[9]
