A24.1 states that a MMC can may await the results of a previous unit's smoke grenade attempt before committing to making its own attempt. Meanwhile, Defensive First Fire against a grenade MF expenditure occurs only after the attempt dr is made, meaning that any resultant Smoke is considered present for that D1F...
Situation: two squads in the same Location.
Q1. If a first squad's Smoke attempt fails, can the defender First Fire at it before the second squad makes its attempt?
Yes, if they are not moving as a stack.
They make move as stack and declare the expenditure simultaneously.

Q1. If a first squad's Smoke attempt fails, can the defender First Fire at it before the second squad makes its attempt?
Yes, if they are not moving as a stack.
Q2. If yes, could the two squads initially declare that they are moving as stack, to avoid this possibility? Or can both squads declare (simultaneously) a smoke attempt to avoid First Fire before both managed their attempt?
They make move as stack and declare the expenditure simultaneously.
