How do smoke screens provide a military advantage? Why doesn’t the user suffer just as much as their opponent?
In: 2
The short answer is that the side that is deploying the smoke screen needs to pick a situation where hiding their appearance is more advantageous than being able to see the opponents.
Examples:
-retreating (so your opponent will be deterred from chasing you or won’t know you’ve begun to leave)
-Charging (so your opponent can’t just run away as you approach)
-bringing out or preparing a big weapon that would draw too much attention
