Just One Big Smokescreen

Tier Rating	C Tier

The Orbital Smoke Strike is just like the G-3 Smoke but in a larger scale. This provides decent cover, but in a game where combat efficiency is more paramount, this stratagem is better left unused.

How to Use Orbital Smoke Strike

Throw on to Enemies

The Orbital Smoke Strike will bring down its devastating firepower at the location you signal it to after 2 Seconds of throwing it.
