Bellator (Tacticus Song Parody)

Especially for you, Mcs828.

Aleph-Null (Tacticus Song Parody)

We choose not when or where inspiration strikes. We are but vessels for our muse.

Aleph-Null, the flying mechanical terror spider that births swarms of smaller mechanical terror spiders, sure is beautiful and captivating.

Captain Boom Boom (Tacticus Song Parody)

In honor of Xarnak Gaming's Thaddeus Noble giveaway, we honor the Silver Fox Master of Ordnance, Thaddeus Noble. 

Move Two (Tacticus Song Parody)

Maladus Phlegmore knows he has what it takes to shine in battle. If only he could get there before it ended.

What Else Can I Do? (Tacticus Song Parody)

A parody of What Else Can I Do? from Disney's Encanto based on characters from the mobile game Warhammer 40,000 Tacticus. Isabella Mariken is Isabela and Vindicta is Maribel. Imperial forces are fighting their way through a horde of tyranids (aka Onslaught). Isabella had been behind the lines healing her sisters when one gets wounded right in front of her and she realizes she can both heal and fight at the same time.

Right-Hand Man (Tacticus Song Parody)

A parody of Right Hand Man from Hamilton based on characters from the mobile game Warhammer 40,000 Tacticus. For the purposes of this song, Commissar Sebastian Yarrick is present for the Fall of Cadia. Also, if you know the actual lore of the Fall of Cadia or like Sgt. Kell a lot, you might hate this.

Last but not least, this entire thing started based on a few quick thoughts. One, Washington complaining about his troops deserting; two, Yarrick is a commissar whose job is to boost morale; and three, Yarrick lost his right arm in battle against an ork. So now it is Right-Hand Man (pun!).

Guns and Ships (Tacticus Song Parody)

A parody of Guns and Ships from Hamilton based on characters from the mobile game Warhammer 40,000 Tacticus. For the purposes of this song, Commissar Sebastian Yarrick is present for the Fall of Cadia. I imagine Yarrick's scowl just growing deeper and deeper every time they mention right hand.

Tacticus Character Promos

There is a contest on the Tacticus discord to write 80-100 word scripts for a series of videos promoting the various heroes. Here are my entries:

Tacticus/Rivengard Arena Ticket Refill Timer

Arena tickets have a max of 15 and replenish at 1 ticket every 1.25 hours. I often have to plan out when I will next get to play and try to spend tickets down so that they refill when I can next log into the game. However, the slightly off 1:1 refill throws my brain on occasion, so a handy chart.

Ignis Stellaris (Starfire) - Warhammer 40K Space Marine Chapter

I am alpha-testing a Warhammer 40K app called Tacticus. It is heavily based on the only game I regularly play on my phone, a hex-based tactical RPG combat game called Rivengard. Playing as the Ultramarines makes me sad; I would rather play as my own Space Marine chapter, created lo those many years ago - the Starfire Space Marines.

Since the last time I read anything 40K was 3rd edition in 2000-2001, I fell into a rabbit hole on the 40K wiki. Fortunately, I found a whole 40K homebrew wiki with a very long article about creating your own chapters.
