Terrain Suggestion - forested hills

Post by peet »

OK, we can have hills and forests that are also tundra. This makes perfect sense. As I understand it, when a unit moves there you use the poorer movement rate but the better defense of the two.

What about hills with trees on them?

The trees would have to be sparse so you could see the fact that there is a hill underneath them.

I think this would be very useful and appealing, and would particularly make the Northerner/Rebel and Rebel/Knalgans dynamics more interesting.

Oh... sorry!

I have yet to encounter them in any campaign I have played, but I guess most of those maps were done prior to its addition.

A Mod can lock this thread, then.

Thanks,

Yeah, they have been in since 1.6 but not all campaigns use them. At least EI, HttT, TSG, Liberty, LoW, SotBE, TRoW and TB do, though. So just a bit over half of them. ;)
