Todays question comes from Rotgut63 in the Harbour: "The key defensive tactic for small warships in WWII is the smoke screen.  I know that the cultural trend is to prohibit smoking, but in the interest of a more realistic and fun game, couldn't the navy be allowed to smoke?"

DOC: We have plans to add more smoke units as a screening element to the game, which would be available to both boats and tanks. We haven’t finished finalizing that design in house yet however, and until v1.31 and v1.32 settle in with the higher video card demands they will place on some of the older computers players are still using (and they upgrade to meet the demands of the future) we might hold off on “more smoke” just a little longer.
