Open terrain with good mobility would be considered "good going for tanks" and clear roads. Like many things in nature, the WP advance follows the path of least resistance. Hills, thick forests, enemy fortifications, cities (unless they are critical to the security of the road net) are usually driven around. Similarly, they don't reinforce failure either. If a staunch defense stops them cold on one axis, the follow-on forces will simply switch to another, more successful one.
Keep in mind however that Polish forces did not strictly follow WP doctrine, and allowed for some degree of freedom for platoon and company commanders. I can't vouch for the rest of the Non Soviet Warsaw Pact (NSWP), but the East Germans were regarded as the best trained and ready WP army. Expect the Poles to be somewhere between them and the Soviets. I might consider giving them lower morale than the Soviets however, as their client states, especially by 1989, would likely not be willing to fight an offensive war for a communist cause that they, largely, did not believe in.
