looks awesome and balanced too.

It needs to either:

-  Look like its completely in ruins (holes in buildings, holes in things, tank carcasses everywhere etc, 'EIR style')

OR

- Look absolutely perfect (more vegetation, bushes trees.

i may actually play a 1v1 if it is on a map like this, it looks really nice.

Yes, I'm going for absolutely perfect. Good tip! I'll add some more lush veg. Thanks!

Looks good, but I'd say personally the bridge looks a little OTT for a small village.

I'm not too aware on ww2 locations, but if there's a location that this reminds you of, I'll change the map name to that. I was just inspired by an image in my head!?

No, but if enough people think the bridge looks funny, then I'll just put a land bridge, but keeping the lagoon.

atg = anti tank gun?  I beg to differ. While you can to some degree, I wanted to create a map that mimicked a more 2v2 or 3v3. With this map, I was wanting to create a pinch point/bottle neck, where the other player couldn't just flank around and back cap. That is one reason why I dislike EIR 1v1 at its current stasis. It's too easy to just go around and back cap, unless you're playing on 1v1 on 4p_France.  But, my friend and I have been playing a lot of 1v1 against eachother on the various skinny 4p maps, but we like France the best, because it's the skinniest, and it forces the combat in the middle. But, hey, that's just me.

How do you open stock maps?  With the new ToV expansion, they removed the ww2/Data folder. I don't know where they are at anymore.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.
