-A CS tank generally has a gun more suited to supporting infantry than fighting other tanks. Some have howitzers, some low-velocity guns. They support infantry attacks.

-A cruiser tanks was a series of fast, lightly armored tanks. Manueverability and speed kept them alive.

-Guerilla forces are infiltrators. You may infiltrate them on the deploy screen using the commando button. Similar to plotting arty. They will appear where you plot them about 75% of the time, give or take. Those that do not appear were unable to infitrate.

-Heavy infantry generally carries better or more armament than light infantry, but move slower sometimes as a result.

-Tractors (primary movers) are able to haul the large guns. Some AA/ATG's have a weight of 211 (size 2 gun, 11 crew). Most APC's can only carry size one guns. If you look at some of the tractors and other movers, they can haul these immobile guns around.

No, there aren't recovery vehicles. The turns in the game represent 3-5 minutes (approximately) of real time. That means a 15 turn battle represents about an hour of real time +/-. Recovery vehicles would come later, after the battle.

What else do you need to know?

Command tanks are for rallying (Sarge Suchandsuch cannot attempt rally, 1Lt Whozit reduces suppression)

Command posts automatically reduce supression, making them great for defenders.

HQ units are the same as command tanks.

CS is shorthand for Close Support. I know Goblin's already explained the function, I'm just adding an explanation of the abbreviation (I didn't see one, my apologies if it's already been covered). I think the term is British. :)
