And those that do produce flame will also produce smoke that drifts down wind as before, thus blocking more LOS - i.e. the original effect.

As Don said above - we may look into it after a while of player use and if needed tweak wrecks to produce more "flamers" if required. It could be based on the survival chance, or flame tanks may be more likely to burn etc. or it may simply be sufficient to leave it as-is. We will see what end user feedback is over time.

I've found the new LOS rules an interesting change to the game. I think Don's graphic with the 4 wrecks in one hex is always how I thought the real world worked, and I hated that my enemies could maneuver behind a few knocked out recon vehicles and I could not fire on them (though I've used the tactic myself ;^). But no more throwing away some cheap jeeps to create a permanent smoke screen to maneuver or hide behind. I didn't realize that the higher the flames on the wreck, the more the LOS was blocked, so thanks for that clarification. I think the new rules make things more realistic and remove some of the tricks people have used.
