Some interesting or high-value Tactic events I came across:

There is Making Preparations, but Dilemmas are not played, so this doesn't work (also for this card, it wouldn't make sense to recur it).

It's funny that a lot of Tactics let you either avoid enemies or rough them up real good. Then again, it's sort of in the name.

I have re-checked the erratum on Wendy's Amulet but I don't think it prevents the below interaction to work.

In a 2+ game, give it to your main fighter in addition to On the Hunt: during the mythos play On the hunt, spawn the enemy, use The book of war, defeat the enemy, get your resources, and at the end of your turn get On the hunt back.
Replay each time you need an enemy (for Parley effects, Under Surveillance, Ambush, ...)

In a Zoey Samaras deck you can even kill the enemy when you engage it thanks to the Zoey's Cross. Especially interesting for Aloof or Cultist enemies: Acolyte, Whippoorwill, ...

P.S: if this combo doesn't work due to the fact that On the Hunt is not discarded right away, there is the inferior combo with On the Hunt / Kicking the Hornet's Nest (you need to find an enemy among the first 9 cards of the encounter deck.
