Description
## Purpose
Adds Pulicat Lake, India's second-largest brackish lagoon, as a water-dominant two-shore map
---
## Objectives
- Lagoon-centred map based on Pulicat Lake on the Andhra Pradesh / Tamil Nadu coast north of Chennai, including the Bay of Bengal coastline
- 12 Nations based on towns and villages (No additional nations, all use the existing `in` flag)
- 950k land area, 57% water. Almost exactly Caspian Sea's size (951k)
- Two facing shores split by the lagoon, plus the Sriharikota barrier spit dividing lagoon from open sea, so `special_team_count: 2` like Caspian Sea and Aegean
- Two island spawns inside the lagoon itself (Venadu, Irakkam) for asymmetric starts
- 1176x1872 (2.20MP) at 34 m/px, extent 40x63 km
- Source imagery OpenStreetMap (ODbL)

open Bay of Bengal (21 km of sea at the north edge, 5 km at the south) — with the
spit and the lagoon mouth as the chokepoints between them.
