"We're going to study the historical battles in hopes of increasing your tactical skills for the future. As a bonus, it's a pretty fun game you can play in your spare time."

- AI Roland's introduction to the simulator.

The UNSC Tactical Simulator, or TACSIM, is a computer program used for the training of the SPARTAN-IV supersoldiers aboard the. Unlike the War Games training in the Infinity ' s advanced combat deck, the Tactical Simulator is a smaller-scale program that functions on data pads. As opposed to having the users engage in direct, fully simulated combat, the TACSIM produces recreations of historical battles and has users assume the role of soldiers who participated in those engagements. The only known engagement featured on the simulator is the Battle of Draetheus V, in which users alternate between the roles of Spartans Edward Davis and Sarah Palmer.
