3. Ref smoke. I noticed that tanks and ground units that have the ability for using smoke, only fire in their hexes, at least thats what i've been able to do. Can they fire more then in there own hex?

tks for help

1/ If the number of game turns is not mentioned in the description then the only recourse is to start up the scenario and look at the bottom of the screen under Visibility and it will give the number of turns

2/ Gives losses on both sides but it's primarily a campaign info tool as it will track yours and the enemy's losses with each campaign game played

3. If the tanks has smoke ammo ( you can check that by right clicking on the unit and look for smoke ammo ) you can fire it by pressing X then picking a spot on the map. It may or may not land on target. If the tank has smoke dischargers that's different than smoke ammo and only fires into the next hex. Infantry can only throw it in the adjacent hex
