I agree completely!  I like the occasional vehicle in SG2, but even one
or
two tanks on the board will dominate if you aren't careful.  I played
one
game in which my opponent had a tank that sucked in about six missiles
before I killed it.  Granted there was plenty of bad luck involved, but
still...  We've taken to using lightly armed APC's in small numbers,
occasionally a single tank, and the GZG hover jeep with machinegun. 
Size
one infantry walkers and armed jeeps add interest and "spice" to the
infantry battles, but you can kill them with small arms fire so they
aren't
unbalancing!
