I think that you have a mis-understanding about Stratgies and tactics.
For example: the siclilian defence, is a planed statgie that supposes to give
one side an advantage upon execution of its moves. I have never seen a chess
program that does not use opening books that could understand that kind of
thinking yet.
Tactics, on the other hand employees trying as many captures, and some center
control stratgies to gain control of the board.
Many people confuse the two, but without the stratgie of center control all that
would be left would be tactics and most programs would not play very well at
all. imho.
