Can the moving player use Smoke Grenades to stop an Op Fire shot that has already been declared?
The designer answered no in 2007, and the rulebook's timing rules agree.

No. The inactive player's Op Fire resolves before the active player may play any later action, so Smoke cannot be played in reaction to it. Smoke has to be placed before the unit enters the hex to screen that shot, and an opponent without a moving unit can never play Smoke.
