Gameplay Tips

 * Thunderer Smoke Rounds function similarly to the Smoke Grenades Perk. The effect of the smoke is also the same at 15 seconds.


 * Cyborg Hounds will not run at a player concealed by smoke, but instead walk (much the same as if the player was equipped with the SH-20 Shield Generator Pack).


 * Precision Call-In reduces this stratagem's activation time by one second, but it will not go below the game's allowed minimum of 0.1 seconds -- even when it is fully upgraded.
