Tactics is a popular one. Uses include +1 to surprise rolls, generating rerolls in combat, and getting chosen leader of the group. I haven't seen it used to actually substitute for the player's tactical ability in combat, though.

I've seen Strategy on a few character sheets, but I don't think I've seen it used. It would be useful if you were running the kind of game where the PCs lead large military forces, but I think those are pretty rare.
