Why, O why...

[CatLord]

I understand direct non-targeting fire (the Z button) to an hex does not make sense with AT ammo, but why can't my tanks without HE ammo try with theirs MG ?

Also, why is it not possible to fire MG randomly across Smoke, it does not make sense really, does it ?

Any chance it may be corrected one day (either in SPWaW or in H2H) ?

Try shutting off a weapon and direct-firing with those that are still in use. Right click on the unit and then click on the weapon you want to shut down. It will turn red to indicate it is out of use. Reverse the process to turn it back on again.

Being lazy, I don't do this often and it is important to remember to turn the weapon back on again.

Smoke has been a problem forever - very doubtful that it will be fixed since further development of SPWAW has been stopped. The suppressive fire capability over or through a blocked LOS would be a good feature.
