I've seen a lot of topics berating smoke grenades when on the attack, so I figure I'll start a topic about their merits for defenders.
I've found, even on the tight infantry maps like odessa or Krazni, that throwing smoke grenades on the positions the attackers normally use as springpoints for their attacks can help the defenders: the attackers can't take cover and shoot back as they traditionally can (like, the areas of sandbags facing the tower on odessa), they're forced to run through the smoke into the open. Heh heh heh.
Anyone found any neat unconventional uses for smoke?
