Is Suppressive fire stratagem from emperors wrath artillery company a shooting attack?

Can it select characters under 10 wounds

Can it ignore other firing restrictions such as alpha legion conceal?

The argument for is that it is not a model shooting and it is not a shooting attack.

The argument against is it's a model selecting a model in the shooting phase.

It is not a shooting attack in any way.

The only confusing thing I can see is "it lays down suppressive fire", but it it still never follows the shooting sequence in any way.

You don't even need to choose a visible target.

It's not a shooting attack in any way, shape, or form.

does it have a range weapon profile? no, than its not a shooting attack

For something to be a shooting attack. It would literally tell you that it is a "shooting attack". Have no fear - the game lets you know when you are making a shooting attack.
