I've done it in hills, desert & light woods terrain.

There seems to be some internal rules disagreements about maps. After the End2 (p. 32) gives a +4 bonus for having a map as opposed to High-Tech (p. 52) which imposes -10 for not having a map. If one goes the After the End rules route, the bonus for having a map counters the penalty for most terrain.
