New Release: Quickstart Battle Handbook and Training Scenarios Pack!

2–3 minutes

A streamlined, print-and-play introduction to Radiant Tactics — free for all.

Hey folks!

Today I’m excited to share something I’ve been working toward for a long time: a fast, clean, shareable entry point for anyone curious about Radiant Tactics. You can download it free now from our digital products page.

What’s Included:

Quickstart Battle Handbook – A streamlined rules reference that gets straight to the tactical heart of Radiant Tactics. This newly released booklet distills the full Radiant Tactics combat rules into a focused, easy-to-learn format designed for:

  • New players trying the system for the first time
  • Demo nights and store events
  • Friends you want to recruit into Phoibos
  • Anyone who wants to get to the fun — fast

The goal: give you everything you need to play a tactical battle in minutes instead of hours, without losing the depth and identity that make Radiant Tactics special. It includes:

  • Core movement, action, and combat rules
  • Clean examples and callouts
  • Simplified terminology and formatting
  • Full reference for conditions, advantage types, and attack effects
  • Streamlined unit cards designed for quick table use

It’s fully print-and-play and ready for tables, conventions, or living rooms.

Training Scenarios Pack – Alongside the handbook, I’m also releasing a suite of eight introductory battle scenarios . All are designed to teach the system through play.

These scenarios start small and scale up, covering themes like:

  • Melee Mirror — learn positioning and flanking
  • Ranged Skirmish — practice timing, threat, and sightlines
  • Ranged vs. Melee — understand control and counterplay
  • Spearmen Control — capture point fundamentals
  • Full Squad Take & Hold — your first full-force battle

Each scenario uses prebuilt enemy squads, training maps, and custom loadouts for your units. They’re all 5-turn battles you can run solo, cooperatively, or in versus mode — and they’re ideal for:

  • Teaching the rules step-by-step
  • Running demos
  • Giving new players a satisfying arc of “first battles”

Combined with the Quickstart Handbook, this pack gives you a whole onboarding funnel in two PDFs.

100% Free. 100% Shareable.

These resources are available to anyone curious about Radiant Tactics. Whether you’re a veteran commander or someone who’s been interested but waiting for an easy entry point, this is it.

Print them out, grab some dice, and discover what makes Radiant Tactics’ cross-genre tactical system so unique. From quick skirmishes to your first full squad engagements, these scenarios will prepare you for campaigns across RPG, wargaming, and beyond.

Downloads are available now on Patreon and the Radiant Tactics website!
