RE: [SG] Terrain ... How Much

OK. 

I am most familiar with urban, suburban, and agricultural areas. I have
been
to forests, swamps and mountains as well. No jungle, desert, savana, or
artic trips yet. So, my perception must be off.

Wow. 75% coverage! So for every 4 square feet of land, 3 square feet is
covered with large enough plants to act as terrain and only 1 square
foot is
open, paved, grass, or has a building on it! Again, Wow. Sounds like a
nice
place.

Let me reask with clarification. By plant coverage, I mean plants large
enough for a man to hide behind while kneeling. Is it still 75%? And of
course this would be an average of random 600m x 960m areas.

As I said, around here it would be 75% if you're outside of the
subdivisions.
In the subdivisions around here, you'd need to surround the area with
swamps,
levies, woods, and then plop your little houses grid fashion in the
centre
of
the battlefield. Hmm... this WOULD make an interesting battle area...
Not
much
in the way of hills, though.
