The trees (all the terrain tiles, actually) are in pretty large chunks.
I just made a version of Munda that had a little of the right look... I should have saved it since my 18 month old turned off the computer while I was working on it (#@%$@%$@%$!@@$#@!%$#&^U). About an hour gone, doh!
The tiles seem to be sort of a grid, they don't show up as something you can rotate, though perhaps I'm missing something.
Bottom line is that I think we can get some reasonably decent looking airfields (meaning looking like the real thing.
One nice thing is that if we want versions for different time periods, we can open the current Slot, then delete airfields and cover it over with jungle
That would be cool in a campaign... you fly a mission that takes you low near munda (perhaps to hit some shipping as the objective). a few missions later, you go by, and the jungle is cleared, then a few later and there is an airfield
The "Cactus" campaign was brilliant in the way he had the dozers making the airfields and revetments, I could see something similar with custom maps, too.
