Talabec Dam giant position

First off, I love the changes to TD. It's unique and creates a lot of variety in gameplay within the scenario. Well done!
However, I have noticed that the destro warcamp is significantly closer to the giant than the order warcamp. In addition, the giant's position is closer to the bridge on the destro path than on the order path. What this does is create a significant starting disadvantage for Order with equal teams. Order has to essentially charge with their full team onto the giant with destro already there and the giant is about to step onto the bridge (moving full speed). Anything less than a full charge results in the the giant passing the bridge with the full destro team. It often results in Order's best strategy being to just wait on the island for destro to escort the giant unopposed and start fresh on the new one.
A couple suggestions to fix this:
1. Move the giant starting position to the order side of the main tree (if the tree is a problem, move that).
2. Delay the spawn of the initial giant.
