How does the Suppressor Squad's Suppressing Fire interact with For the Greater Good? Say a unit of Breachers is affected by Suppressing Fire, does that stop other units from activating FtGG? I am not overly familiar with FtGG other than I know it somehow allows other units to shoot Overwatch at units that aren't charging them.

The Greater Good rule can be used regardless of whether the charged unit is prevented from firing Overwatch. So Suppressing Fire only stops the affected unit from shooting, not other units using For The Greater Good.

You can however, shoot all 3 suppressors at different targets, possibly preventing 3 units from being able to overwatch.

As For the Greater Good, is an overwatch type action it will stop any units that have lost a casualty to suppressors from using it (im sure some will say this isn't the case, but it is, and its easy to get around it by saying you charge the three units that lost a guy so just accept it).

This is correct. Extra units shooting using For The Greater Good are prevented from shooting if they are themselves subject to Suppressing Fire.
