    I have to disagree up to a point as most modern friendly fire incidents;
    1. Happen due to the fluidity of modern combat
    2. Communications issues between branches/allied nations compounding same
    3. The increase in night battles as that is where Western technolgy has a more pronounced edge
    4. Unforms that blend in with the terrain
    5. Artillery firing indirectly

    - XVIII century warfare was LOS oriented and only point #2 would come into play - and the confusion/smoke/etc. that you mentioned.

    Now, given the choice between including friendly fire or not - I would opt for NO if the AI would be impared.
