Artillery smoke question

[DRG]

NOBODY is suggesting 81mm Mortars shouldn't be able to fire smoke.

When artillery fires a smoke round, how many rounds of gameplay does it remain for? Ie. If I create a barrage of smoke as part of my openning turn, does that smoke last for the entire game or a limited time?

If I'm not wrong it depends on the weather condition etc. but definetly not for the whole game... more or less 1-3 rounds.

Only a limited time, maybe 2-5 turns, depending on caliber of the shell, to my recollection.

Thanks!

How about guns larger than 105mm and hoitzers 155mm and less can fire smoke?

All but the biggest of mortars (81mm and up) should be able to fire smoke.
