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!
