RE: [FMA] Suppression alternatives

Definately more inhibited; as long as you've got some cover to hide
behind,
anyway.

The multiple removed suppressions would have some advantages &
disadvantages, when combined with the 'Suppressed figures in the open'
rules.	Those Ld 3 troops aren't going to be very willing to stick their
necks out when they've got a nice rock to hide behind, but Ld 1 troops
are
going to be real eager beavers, ready to get stuck in regardless of the
odds
(if they can roll higher than a 1...)

I don't have time to do any physical playtesting at the moment, but
maybe
anyone with insane amounts of time could try it with the SG/DS max 3
suppressions & the multiple suppression removal.
Q die > Ld x 1 = 1 removed suppression
Q die > Ld x 2 = 2 removed suppressions
Q die > Ld x 3 = 3 removed suppressions
Low motivation & quality troops won't go anywhere when the enemy gangs
up on
them...
