Yes, the Tactics page is
http://www.weidu.org/tactics.html

It has the basic README file linked on the web, but what many people don't realize is: AFTER you install tactics, you can look in the individual folders for each componant of Tactics, and find HINTS- README files. These specifically describe each componant's powers and purpose, and give tips on how to beat it.

ALSO, you'll find a very special alternate README file, in your C:/Programs/Black Isle/BGII-SOA/tactics2/ folder. The special file is called "README-SixOfSpades.txt". It isn't posted online AFIK. It gives extensive input/criticisms from SixOfSpades, and informative replies from Wes Weimer. IMO, this is much more interesting and detailed than the "Changes Since Last Version" log. Here's an excerpt:

Quote:
[ This file contains some text quote from the SixOfSpades Tactics Review
(in particular, the part that reviewed Weimer-written components of
Tactics.) It is included here so that (1) bored players can see the
sort of things that we talk about and (2) interested players will see
concrete examples of feedback being applied and changing the mod. ]
It's nice to read for people who are following these Tactics threads on IW.
