I'm adding this topic for all the Mac OS 10.5 users like myself who might want to get this game to work. By default, when you try and run the game on Mac, you will only get a blank screen. These instructions are for Mac users who may not be familiar with playing games in Windows. Here's how to fix that:
1) You need to have Windows XP (obviously), and for myself I use VMWare Fusion ver 2.
2) Install Fallout Tactics like normal from GOG.com in XP. it will create an icon on the desktop.
3) Right Click on the Icon and go to Properties
4) On the Target field, add a -w at the end of the line like so:
"C:Program FilesGOG.comFallout TacticsBOS.exe" -w
This will run the game in a Window and get around display issues, like on a Macbook. Hope that helps!
