I think yes. Because you take cover when you are under fire, and you
have to move to get up and get going again.

No on the first part. Good question on the second! ;) And I think
the
rulebook mentioned the followup part - yes, you can pursue, but I'm
pretty sure it limited how far you could pursue.

I don't see why not.

IAVR's are ineffective against such a defense (that's the way we
played).
Alternatively, you could draw the chits anyway, hoping for specialty
chits.
>5) For clarification, do all specialty chits count against artillery

Yes, they do - pretty sure that was mentioned in the rules (but in a
strange place, like an example or something.
Hope that helps!
