And, yes, the manual is very accurate. However, I haven’t figured out how to do bounding overwatch, for example, in the game. I don’t think that’s even possible.
Yeah - the manual is describing tactics that can’t really be used in the game.
It is clearly evident that the project was to be continued into M1TP3/Gunship! and in fact already in Gunship! one can see how the AI tactics evolved. It is such a shame that this was cut short and unless current MPS does something it was all for naught.

Watch this clip from Gunship! just for a little glimpse of better tank AI they made then:


We perhaps never know what was on their drafting boards when M1TP3 got canceled.
