A question of Suppression

Subject: A question of Suppression

A suppressed Infantry unit in SG2 cannot fire or do anything until it 
removes suppression. Suppressed vehicles should be able to fire and 
move (I would think). Can they? I can't recall. If they can't move or 
fire, does this make entire sense? I was under the impression a 
suppression for a vehicle meant it buttoned up, but all that really 
does is limit the ability to spot on behalf of the vehicle crew (less 
field of view). Most rifles and MGs and such present no direct 
threat, and I thought tankers train to fight buttoned up. 

Somebody want to clear me up on how this works for vehicles? Private 
email on the matter is fine, or a reply to the list if you think it 
topical. 

Tom.
