Come visit me sometime.  North of me is fairly open terrain.  South,
West, 
and East, fairly rugged mountains with gobs of plant terrain.  Some's 
national park, some's national forest, some is BLM, some is private
land, 
some belongs to the State of Oregon.  As a teenager, I always tried to 
picture what it would be like for someone trying an amphibious invasion
of 
Oregon, considering that our first mountain range is right on the coast,
and 
only at certain passes is it easily crossed.

For the game, I imagine it would depend on how heavily settled the world
in 
conflict is, and where on each world the conflict occurs (secret ops at 
remote bases, invasion of the colony, etc.).
