Identical in function to the [[Smoke Grenade]] and [[Dye Grenade]] used during the previous wars, Megapol’s Smoke Grenade covers a rather large area with a blanket of dense smoke. Interestingly, the aliens appear to purchase Smoke Grenades despite their hostile relations with Megapol.

To arm, left-click on the grenade and set the time delay. Note, however, that the timer begins as soon as the grenade leaves the agent’s hand: on the shortest fuse, the grenade explodes in his face! Also note that the timer cannot be stopped after throwing/dropping, even if an agent picks up the grenade. To detonate the grenade on impact, right-click on it and throw.
