Default Smoke Grenade....

Hi,
Do any of you think a smoke grenade would be practical in Generals? I mean its easy to make, but is it useful?
Your thoughts please.

yes,
becuase you could blind the enemy for around 15 seconds and get a jump on them and then maybe a 30 second wait until the smoke gernade comes back? and to need a upgrade to get the Smoke grenade

It would be useful online as it could create diversions and hide the true postion of forces, but it may not be easy to apply in skirmish. If you could get the computer to use and recognise the fact that units canbe hidden but may not be hidden in the smoke.

Why not use the games ability to make a beacon?

The beacon makes a smoke, now I know it can only be seen by allies... but what if you changed it to be seen by all.... its thick.. so make the cloud bigger give it a timer and walla smoke gernades.

Sometimes I even astound myself.

That isn't really necesarry :P Like he said its easy to make, but I don't think it would really be very practical because it wouldnt affect any human player very much and obviously wouldnt affect the AI. It would be cool if you could make it temporarily cloak any friendly unit it touches or give a defensive bonus or something.

I dunno, to tell you the truth I don't think it would be very effective. Not worth the effort and time to get it in game working to the proper manner. I just do not see where it would be useful I guess.
