- Description:
-
- Based on the actual Texas lake made famous by the Toadies song of the same name,
- this map was created with topographic realism in mind. My goal was to create a map
- that accurately portrayed the real lake (within the limits of the RA Map Editor!)
- Two exceptions were made in the interest of playability:
- 1. The western side of the lake actually extends beyond the map border, but I put in
- a mud bridge. I felt land access would improve a players tactical options (especially
- for those who like to play the Soviets!)
- 2. The eastern side of the lake is capped by a dam and a bridge. I couldn't get the
- bridges to look right, so I went with land bridges. Plus you can't blow those up :)
- Look carefully: those land peninsulas between the winding river provide an excellent
- spot for V2s and Artillery. And the choke points on the west and east bridges make
- awesome defense points.
- Have fun and let me know what you think about my first map!
