Most abbreviations can be deciphered via Google.

When it comes to military abbreviations, scenario designers tend to differ...
Battalion can be seen represented across the game as as Btn Bn Bt[X(]

A list with all of them.
They put a lot of work in the manual, I respect that and i'm glad they did.
But a list with all abbreviations used in the game would be a small but very helpfull addition.
I can't think of any strategygame that has one, but it would be very nice to have.
And as Silvanski pointed out, abbreviations differ between games and even in games itself.

Sometimes the abbreviation used depends on the unit name. There are only so many spaces for a unit's description. Sometimes you can fit in Btn for battalion. Sometimes there's only room for two letters. Most go with Bn. Same with other abbreviations.
