It was super awesome to be on the PC side of things for one of these mods and I hope to get to experience that again. Maybe if smoke is something that really bothers folks, we can try a different sort of pyrotechnic.

I personally have no qualms with the smoke...Even as an asthmatic with weaker/damaged lungs I find the smoke doesn't exacerbate the condition. I do notice that my throat gets insanely sore though, but meh, it is really not that bad.
I wish dry ice was a viable source of smoke, but it takes a while to build up, and dissipates too quickly.

If a little less was used it could still look wicked but also let some of us avoid it to breathe?

I was fine with the smoke and I was standing within a foot of one of the grenades.

Smoke bombs are the best, I love the mood they set. Being on the PC side of Smoke bombs was way cooler than I imagined, partly because I didn't know they were about to happen

Love the smoke and the effect it has both visually and viscerally (sp). Feel sad for people who can't get as much enjoyment out of it, but understand they will have problems when engulfed.
It's a fine balancing act, but I would definitely vote to continue using them on the understanding that those who have issues might need to flee OOG to recover a bit.

Yeah love them used. Just make sure you give some of us the option to get away from it.

I think one thing to keep in mind is that a lot of us are used to smoke bombs being used in Jericho. Specifically in the VAST OPEN FIELD. The fog can disperse quite quickly and spread out. Whereas where they were used in Ralinwood, the area was somewhat surrounded by trees, cabins and the buildings.
I will also support these wonderful things, but perhaps they should be used in a more open area when used in that quantity.

I really enjoyed the smoke, but I can see how some people could have problems with it. For me, it gave me a reason to not try and wade into the thick of the fog. I don't recall having any problems with breathing. I'd like to see them again, if it's possible.
