Driving under treetops

Will you be able to take cover in the trees? And will the GV tags not be seen in the trees?

anytime no pixel from an enemy vehicle can be seen (there aren't transparent objects yet), the icon can't either.

Now do the trees protect the GV's from bombs?

 Hell, if the damage model in AH II is similar to
 that in AH it won't much matter! You need to
 get a DIRECT hit on FP's, Panzers & Tigers in AH
 to kill or maim them it seems.
I've seen those $^&&$# vehicles drive right out
of a ring of 500# bomb craters and keep on trucking!

Last thing we nedd, IMO, is more porking dweebs
running around in unkillable GV's...

 I agree!

Trees collideability will be an arena variable, unless I heard wrong.

Are trees just concealment or are they cover?  Won't it make long distance gunnery nearly impossible if so?  Not complaining just pondering..
