Tabletop Tavern runs are not decided by one battle alone. You need a readable army, a safe route, enough healing, clean manual battle control, and a final battle plan.
Use this hub as a route map. Open the detailed guide that matches your current problem instead of reading every page in order.

Start with the Beginner Guide if this is your first run. Use the Campaign Guide for route, healing, gold, towns, campfires, and final battle planning. Use the Combat Guide if you are losing units in manual battles.
For a safer first run, learn the basic army shape first: frontline, damage, anti-large, backline safety, and healing. Then choose routes that recover the army before final battles instead of chasing every reward.
Try Dwarf Cannons if you want a safer hold-and-shoot build with protected artillery. Try Sanguine Court if you want aggressive Outrider deployment, fast pressure, and surround-based battles.
Win runs by managing the whole route. Heal before key units collapse, avoid greedy garrisons before final battles, buy units that solve missing roles, and use manual battle when enemy artillery, cavalry, Outriders, or large units matter.
Tabletop Tavern has 25 achievements in the checked launch-period achievement list. Use the Achievements Guide for unlock routes, rare achievement planning, Nat 20, No Gear No Problem, Godking, and difficulty-related goals.
