Yes they do :D
I made a rule-set for smoke grenades a while back in bonus material; I'll update it once I complete my rules supplement for tank combat.

Totally forgot to tell you lads this; I put it on Flickr, but missed BrikWars.
The first Leopard 2 instructions will not be available until mid August. Apparently, one needs to be 18 in order to conduct business via PayPal :D

I am really interested by this smoke grenade idea, could you give me a link to that rule sheet in Bonus material??

Just curious will you be making a more balanced vanilla statcard to go with it?

That was very good.
Have you done Lego animation before?
The way the hatches opened very slow and the guys slowly came out looks like pro work to me.
A novice would have rushed those bits.
