Terrain landing Helos

Post by carll11 »

I have historical LZs turned off.

I landed units in a flooded rice paddy at 42 60, which happens to be an already marked and historical LZ BUT, when I tried to land in the hex below, also a flooded rice paddy, it told me terrain wont allow it....

Can we land in tall grass? Orchards?

I believe the wet rice paddy worked as there was a pre-prepared LZ there. Otherwise, anything with water or trees, as a rule of thumb, should be out of bounds.
