I am currently stationed at Fort Bliss and I am familiar with the open sand dune type terrain. Mostly I am just trying to get an idea of what I am dealing with.

Depending on when you go it will either be windy and cold or windy and hot.

More hills and mountains ...I was an OC I drove all over that place....the top of the box on the other side is a impact area for jets....one big opening coming from main side. If you go there playing OPFOR you will be climbing if not in your Vizmods

Don't forget the Big and wide open valleys between the mountains that channel the tanks into certain areas. I think my guys laid 21 miles of wire and simulated (as in big blue fake mines) mine fields for one operation against the 1st Cav back when the Soviets were still the bad guys. And lets not forget the 75 degree temperature swing in the summer from day time highs to night lows.

MAJ Ken Landgren - And the fact that the OPFOR units have fought these same battles over and over again and over the same terrain.

MAJ Ken Landgren - The Armor unit loved the reverse slope defense and they had it down to a science on that terrain. They would set up in a lot of places that looked damn flat until you got on the ground, then you would find that there was an easy slope that peaked out just inside their maximum effective range. They would sit hull defilade, my Engineers dug those holes too, and pop the Blue Force tanks as they crested the rise.
