Use textured and ghosted plains. I have created an extensive example with graphics and comments in the Code Snippets section. The thread is called "Explosions and Special Effects Demo". It should show you everything you need to know including explosions, smoke, debris, shockwaves, etc... Just ask me if you need to know anything else.

Good Luck
