Hi everybody,
Does a Spanish Guerrilla cancel the Tactician card which has to be played aside the Command card and send it to be discarded ?

Good question, and there is no FAQ that I'm aware of.
My instinct says that the Tactician card is returned to French hand, based entirely on how similar cancel options work in other games, The Great War for instance

The timing of just when the Spanish player must try to cancel orders is key factor when answering these questions. 

“The Spanish player may elect to spend one Guerrilla Action counter to stop all French orders from being issued on any given French turn, after the French player plays a Command card, but before the French player’s order phase.” 

Question #1Because the Guerrilla Action attempt to cancel the Command card is before ordering any units… and the Tactician cards deal with order units, which are I believe the Tactician cards being question, well these cards would actually not even have to be played yet. 

"If the attempt to stop the Guerrilla action is not successful, the French player’s Command card is discarded and no orders are issued. The French player draws a new Command card, which ends his turn.” 

so as I understand this, the sequence of play is
1. French play a Command card
2. Spanish plays the Guerrilla token
3. French roll to cancel token 
4A. If successfully cancelled, play continues as usual and Tactician cards can be played
4B. If unsuccessful, Command card is discarded, a new Command card draw, and Turn ends. No Tactician cards could have been played. Any Tactician cards that would have been drawn are still drawn.
