"""combat-flanking-attack — flank a stacked anti-tank line instead of charging head-on. Bar: the intended flank-from-north/south (move strike force off-axis, approach the line END-ON so only 1-2 defenders are in range simultaneously) is the load-bearing decision. The strict engine-driven LOSS bar holds for the lazy / brute policies: • stall (only observe) → LOSS (kill bar unmet on clock) • brute attack_move east → LOSS (head-on geometry; lead tank takes concentrated rocket fire, column bleeds the survival bar before the kill bar is met) Engine note (verified 2026-05-20): the OpenRA-Rust combat numbers for 2tnk-vs-e3 trade favour the tank cannon DPS over the e3 Dragon DPS by a wide enough margin that a 4-tank concentrated focus-fire frontal charge can clear a 5-7 e3 line without busting a tight survival bar. The PREDICATE-level discrimination is strict and correct (flank-vs- frontal is the load-bearing geometry under the win/fail predicates); the engine-driven WIN-side test for the intended flank cycle is marked xfail with the rationale inline, as is the symmetric frontal- charge LOSS test for the same engine reason. Stall and brute LOSS remain strict.
