Environment: Asphalt/Cement

This common battle ground is comprised of an area covered with asphalt or cement (obviously). The physical properties of asphalt and cement when it comes to traction when running are quite similar. As such, they are being treated in the same way for simplicity sake. Unlike fields, areas covered with asphalt or cement may also contain more hiding spots (e.g. small walls, small buildings, large garbage bins, etc.) within close proximity to one another, allowing for more stealthy attacks to be used.

MIND THE TURF
Though greater traction on these surfaces is provided, just remember that falling down on them is equally as grating. Being a harder surface, it is not wise to fall on or drop one's weapon for fear of breaking something. Though this may seem as an obvious point, wet asphalt or concrete can become quite slippery. As more water is allowed to collect on these surfaces, the chances of slipping greatly increases (mainly due to the likelihood of aquaplaning on them). One simple rule of thumb is: If the ground is wet, do not attempt sudden stops or changes in direction.

COVER ONESELF
As stated in other sections, one cannot hit accurately what one cannot see. If one remains unseen, one becomes a more difficult target than a visible one. The more numerous hiding spots will allow one to duck/crouch behind when under-fire or approach a hostile unnoticed if skillful enough.

Of course, one should always remain ready to move even when behind cover in case one gets spotted or one is being followed. Moving about the battle field also allows one to get a mental picture of where all possible hiding positions are and how to approach them from various angles in case one route is under too much enemy guard. Better knowledge of the battle field will give one and one's group an edge over the enemy.
