Hi all,
I just got done making the English version of the manual for Sid Meier's Covert Action mostly presentable. I tried to make it smaller as far as the size of it goes but I figured everyone would appreciate a nice high quality scan of the physical manual :) The scan of the physical manual was done with 600 DPI on Ultra Fine. I do apologize for setting off anyone's OCD as the page cropping is not exactly what you'd call even but I figure having a legible manual will override that :)
I have also uploaded the German version of the manual :)
Please feel free to download the manuals anytime you like and enjoy! :)

Now there is a german manual but no german version of the game? :/
It would be nice if the german version will be added in future because decrypting the messages isn't that easy if you're not a native english speaking person.

I personally bought a German CD re-release (Covert Aktion) from ebay.de, thinking it was a German version, but it was just the English version. I just wanted to include a German manual along with the English one but I didn't want to cause any confusion as to whether we had a different version of the game.
Did a German language version of Covert Action actually exist?

Great job on the scanning, the manual looks great! It was definitely worth the wait!
I do have one major complaint though: the file size is HUUUUGE! :O
May I suggest using OCR? This would significantly reduce the file size while simultaneously raising the quality of the characters. Considering that there are only 2 fonts used throughout the entire manual and that one of them is obviously Times New Roman, this should be an easy job with this scan quality.

Do you have any recommendation for some decent OCR software?

Unfortunately I don't. The last time I used OCR technology was about 10 years ago, so any recommendation I would have had are most likely out-of-date.

Maybe this is a dumb question..and I'm just missing seeing a link or something..but WHERE is the English manual? I'm not finding it. Thanks!
EDIT: Okay, nvm. I didn't realize it was a separate download from GOG. In case anyone else like me is scratching their heads on this, I had to go to 'Backups and Goodies', click on the manual, and then go find the !Downloads folder inside the game installation folder, where there was a zipped copy of the manual to extract. Not exactly obvious at first glance, but it all looks good now!

Sid Meier's Covert Action Manual

A covert operation is a military operation intended to conceal the identity of (or allow plausible denial by) the sponsor[1] and intended to create a political effect which can have implications in the military, intelligence or law enforcement arenas—affecting either the internal population of a country or individuals outside it.

Covert operations aim to secretly fulfill their mission objectives without anyone knowing who sponsored or carried out the operation, or in some cases, without anyone knowing that the operation has even occurred.

Covert operations and clandestine operations are different.

Laws[edit]

Under U.S. law, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) must lead covert operations unless the president finds that another agency should do so and properly informs the Congress. Normally, the CIA is the U.S. government agency legally allowed to carry out covert action.[2] The CIA's authority to conduct covert action comes from the National Security Act of 1947.[3] President Ronald Reagan issued Executive Order 12333 titled United States Intelligence Activities in 1984. This order defined covert action as 'special activities', both political and military, that the US Government could legally deny. The CIA was also designated as the sole authority under the 1991 Intelligence Authorization Act and in Title 50 of the United States Code Section 413(e).[3][4] The CIA must have a 'Presidential Finding' issued by the President of the United States in order to conduct these activities under the Hughes-Ryan amendment to the 1991 Intelligence Authorization Act.[2] These findings are then monitored by the oversight committees in both the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives.[5] As a result of this framework, the CIA 'receives more oversight from the Congress than any other agency in the federal government'.[6] The Special Activities Division (SAD) is a division of the CIA's Directorate of Operations, responsible for Covert Action and 'Special Activities'. These special activities include covert political influence and paramilitary operations.

Military intelligence and foreign policy[edit]

Covert operations and clandestine operations are distinct. The Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms (Joint Publication JP1-02), defines 'covert operation' as 'an operation that is so planned and executed as to conceal the identity of or permit plausible denial by the sponsor. A covert operation differs from a clandestine operation in that emphasis is placed on concealment of identity of sponsor rather than on concealment of the operation'. The United States Department of Defense definition has been used by the United States and NATO since World War II.

In a covert operation, the identity of the sponsor is concealed, while in a clandestine operation the operation itself is concealed. Put differently, clandestine means 'hidden', while covert means 'deniable'. The term stealth refers both to a broad set of tactics aimed at providing and preserving the element of surprise and reducing enemy resistance and to a set of technologies (stealth technology) to aid in those tactics. While secrecy and stealthiness are often desired in clandestine and covert operations, the terms secret and stealthy are not used to formally describe types of missions.

Covert operations are employed in situations where openly operating against a target would be disadvantageous. These operations are generally illegal in the target state and are frequently in violation of the laws of the sponsoring country.[citation needed] Operations may be directed at or conducted with allies and friends to secure their support for controversial components of foreign policy throughout the world. Covert operations may include sabotage, assassinations, support for coups d'état, or support for subversion. Tactics include the use of a false flag or front group.

The activity of organizations engaged in covert operations is in some instances similar to, or overlaps with, the activity of front organizations. While covert organizations are generally of a more official military or paramilitary nature, like the DVS German Air Transport School in the Nazi era, the line between both becomes muddled in the case of front organizations engaged in terrorist activities and organized crime.

Law enforcement[edit]

Undercover operations (such as sting operations or infiltration of organized crime groups) are conducted by law enforcement agencies to deter and detect crime and to gather information for future arrest and prosecution.

Examples[edit]

  • Vang Pao's Clandestine Army

In popular culture[edit]

Covert operations have often been the subject of popular films (Zero Dark Thirty, Argo, The Falcon and The Snowman, The Kremlin Letter), novels, TV series, and comics. Run delete for pc.

The Company is a fictional covert organization featured in the American TV series Prison Break. Also other series that deal with covert operations are Mission: Impossible, Alias, Burn Notice, The Unit, The State Within, Covert Affairs, Air Wolf, 24, The Blacklist, Scandal, Strike Back series, and the Vagabond.
