It wouldn’t be bad if we had colored smoke grenades to mark targets. With a red or orange smoke grenade thrown at a target, you could signal other players to storm that target first. I used something like this in “The Darkes Hour” in “Dog Green” and it always worked great. Of course only if everyone participates.
Those were used for CAS.
It would be a nice addition, especially if certain smoke was used for CAS and mortar teams to let them know where to hit enemies at instead of blind firing majority of the time hoping to hit something.
Colored smoke could also be used to mark tanks for better visuals towards aircrafts. This could make more accurate strikes to both infantry and tanks, all while providing cover. This would also simultaneously blind the enemy tank and mark it, because i some will say marking is more useful, but it doesn’t hurt to have more dynamic gameplay options.
Smoke grenades were used for a variety of different things, as were signal flares, they came in a variety of different colors, somewhere just signal stars without a parachute
Just a few examples, there are all kinds of different ones, even ones for rifle grenades
if only there was a chat function or marking feature to communicate this
