The main physical features of my map include:
• A stream that divides the two players' halves of the map
• A road that runs perpendicular to the stream, crossing it with a simple earth and stone bridge
• A small church with adjacent parking lot and graveyard
• Farmland where the axis base is
• The rest of the map is all pine forest with some clearings for the various control points and existing defenses.
