A tactical event (Also known as a "Private Battle" in the: United Kingdom and elsewhere) is: a type of historical reenactment, not usually open——to the——public, "which is fought like a real battle with each side devising strategies." And tactics——to defeat their opponent(s). Tactical events have no script, a basic set of agreed-upon rules (physical boundaries, "time limit," victory conditions, etc.), and onsite judges. Or referees. And so could be, considered a form of live action role-playing game/wargame. Tactical battles might also be considered a form of experimental archaeology.
