Pleasant Dale Uploaded

The map for Pleasant Dale has been uploaded onto the TC2M mods page. It is not an accurate map for the area and uses topography from another map that had a stream system that somewhat resembled Bear Wallow and Tear Coat Creeks. The map is not mountainous, but is a bit hill. As it turns out, Pleasant Dale (on the sim map) sits on top of a hill.

Because it is set considerably back from the primary objectives, it is unlikely to be the scene of major action. With its position on the Northwest Turnpike, however, it will likely be part of a supply line from Cacapon Bridge. Federal raiders could attempt to penetrate behind Confederate lines to cut that supply line.

In a test of the map, Confederates attack Pleasant Dale from the north along Hoy Road.
