Fine bit o' work ya got there, Mr. Spades.
I'll do something more in-depth when I've had a few hours of sleep, but I gotta say this now: the one-minute reviews just ain't doin' it for me. You repeat certain bits of information, like the "you can't go back the way you came in" bit, which was cute the first time around, but after cutting and pasting that line for the fifth time, it became annoying. Other than that, I found it an enjoyable read, and this will no doubt become the barometer for future Tactics endeavors, as well as possible starting points for improvement.
