• The smoke in the smoke grenades seem to disappear a bit quickly! Maybe it was a one-off since its random, but in the my turn after throwing there's only 4 squares of it left. :(

• That's the 4th smoke grenade I've seen, and the only one which has disappeared anywhere near as quickly as that. The others all stayed around for a good few turns.

• What I wouldn't give for a grenade right now...

• As if things weren't dire enough, Sterner has panicked (and understandably so). Maybe, being such a hardened criminal, we should give him higher morale for future games?

• I don't know. It's taken him being the last man remaining and being wounded before he panicked. It couldn't get any worse for him. If his morale was increased then he would have to be immune to panic. Do we want him to be immune to panic? I'm not sure. Another vote maybe?

• Maybe hiding in exactly the same place as last time wasn't the best tactic in the world!

• Ha ha, well actually that was the main factor leading me to believe you WOULDN'T be hiding there. Lucky for me I'd pretty much searched everywhere else though. :)

• Yeah, only an idiot would use the same tactic twice. ;)
  
  I take it the smoke had cleared enough for you to see me, or did you just loose a few rounds into the cloud?

• Strangely not only could I see you, but one or more of my units could see the trail of where you had moved 'from - to'. I did have all 3 of my units looking in from different angles, but this raises the question of can a unit see an enemy only 1 square inside of the smoke, or does there need to be a smoke square between them to block the view?

• Thinking about it, it's not that surprising; Since the grenade only exploded at the end of my turn, presumably your units could see me clearly during my turn and could see where I had walked to.
  
  Smoke blocks view just like a wall, but units can see each other when they are adjacent. Maybe I need to do a test of what happens when a unit is on the edge of a cloud, but it should block the view.
