All of the information presented here is very good. However, how do you translate all of that to a built-up city environment such as New York City, where Kalos has his game set? The principles are the same but the execution is different in a city.
Not a lot of land immediately available for agriculture, lots of highrise buildings for observation of you by the enemy, those same highrise buildings obstructing your line of sight, lots of underground areas available for people to hide in or sneak up on you, lots of buildings/roads/tunnels channelling you as much as they do the enemy, a lot of material for making fires (for either setting you on fire or creating smokescreens etc. etc.), a lot of material for making walls or obstacles and if the enemy really wants to conserve ammunition, they can just drop rocks on you from on high.
