I try to use present tense for you. 
For a typical game there is no discussion of tactics. Usually you are playing in an area where each character would be able to survive solo, so you just need to avoid screwing each other up. The best coop partners are reliable and rather predictable. If you stay on one side of your partners and focus your fire on the enemies on your side, you shouldn't be hitting your partners very often (unless they are idiots). If you shoot diagonally across the corridor at enemies on the other side, the warrior gets hit by arrows when he engages the enemy or it engages him. Stonecurse comes in handy if there are too many enemies or someone gets in trouble. It's pretty much just common sense playing.
The big exception in my experience is Ironman games. Those are a lot more rigid with tactically preplanned battles.
