Tractics, subtitled Rules for WWII Miniatures, is a set of wargaming rules for conducting World War II style combat with 1 to 285 scale micro armour miniatures. The game was created by Mike Reese and Leon Tucker with contributions from Gary Gygax, and was initially published by Guidon Games in 1971 before being republished by TSR, Inc. beginning in 1975. A new edition was authorized in December 2021. The game holds the distinction of being the first published game to use a twenty sided die, a design choice that later became a defining feature of tabletop role playing games more broadly.
