[QUOTE="Woas, post: 4690458, member: 16317"] So that's it then? "There were trees around"? Snore. :p First off you're in a jungle. It's hot. It's sticky. It rains multiple times a day and seemingly at the drop of a hat. People in any sort of heavy armor are probably going to be grouchy. There's gnats and mosquitoes and ants and beetles and centipedes and spiders and GOD KNOWS what other kind of creepy crawly things all over the place that sting and generally are not happy when they interact with human(oids). Trees. What kind of trees? Big tall ones with vines? Old rotten ones that are home to a colony of FLESH EATING TERMITES? Ones that impeded movement and restrict the battlefield? What else? What other terrain features can you apply here. How about a 300 foot waterfall? [IMG]http://www.wildlifearchives.com/images/brazil-caracol-blog.jpg[/IMG] How about climbing down that... during a sudden afternoon monsoon... with a T-rex hunting you. So the characters leave the jungle an are in some open plains cleared in front of a big wall. Does the wall have big boulders that have come off over the years? Is the ground even? Is there an old trench dug into the field where ancient supports were erected when the wall was built? Was there chest high grass growing for people to duck into and stalk through? Did it look like this: [IMG]http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/images/content/157716main_forest_burning_lg.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
