    Remember to use right-click on the strat map to get an idea of the terrain you would be fighting in.
    OMG why didn't I think of this before...?

    Still, had a heroic victory in a forest battle yesterday. Very tall trees, but all you need is to pause often and be patient.

    Thats the major reason i hate them.They are a micro-management nightmare from hell.If you have anywhere near two full armies,meet in a giant forest,then you would probably be better off repeatedly slamming your hand in the car door..because that is going to be much more enjoyable.

    Not to mention that if you win,and don't know any better,if you continue the battle then you are going to spend the next 20 minutes hunting down all the onsies and twosies of the fleeing enemy that are stuck on the trees all over the woods.

    ahh yes, and if they're not 'routing', you'll automatically lose the battle anyways, thanks to the time limit.

    In forests missiles can't help you mush.

    I actually like battles in forests. Perhaps it's the way I fight. I'm a passive attacker. I organize my lines and then use couple of units to lure the enemy to my lines. Why should I do all that marching when they can do it as well? I think this tactic is really good in forests. You can surprise the enemy and get an easy victory.

    Even bonsais???
    Just as a side-note, there is no plural in Japanese; one bonsai, two bonsai. It stays the same. Goes for every word.
