So if my interpretation of the rules is correct, as soon as a Wulver triggers Frenzy, s/he is Impetuous on the next active turn, and therefore, ceases to benefit from cover.
Why would the Wulvers not get smoke grenades? Of the units that have Frenzy (Antipode via controller, Highlander Grey, Wulver, Wallace, and Uxia), only the Wulvers don't get smoke. To boot, the rest of our loonies (G45, Irmandho, Dog Warrior, Cameronian, and Duroc) all get smoke. Is this an error, or is there a reason why Wulvers shouldn't get smoke 'nades?
No smoke for Wulvers?

Did they have smoke before? But I agree, the mighty wulvers will look a bit daft once they have smelled blood. Which is a shame. On the other hand, they can shoot MK12 instead of throwing smoke.

To be honest: why would not just every unit get smoke? Must be balance again... or something like that...
It's mostly to offset the downside of not being able to claim cover…
@Prophet: No, they didn't have smoke in N2, but could still claim cover while Frenzied, so I don't think they really needed it then.

This offset is already done by point values.
I feel your pain and also am no big fan of the new impetuous rules on all models but I'll give it a try before condemning it.

Not a fan of the new impetuous rules either. Have never used such troops much, and probably wont in the future. The wulvers become really a bit weaker once they have killed, which is weird.

Mk12 and 2 wounds is your smoke.
It is given to miniatures which need a little more survivability until they reach their effective zone (chains template, rifles optimal range...) And low ib wounds.
Wulvers has mk12 (60 cm, sorry, don't know in inches, but maybe 25 inches?) And 2 real wounds. And I assure that it is a big difference.
I never use the smoke with greys, only with T2 shotgun once.

When you look into the abyss, the spetsnaz also looks into you.
60cm is, I guess, the 24" range, far limit for +3 range on Spitfire / MK12 / Molotok.
