Mapping Software

[Binarynova]

Can anyone suggest some software for mapping a game like this? I might end up just doing it on graph paper anyway (because I like having real, physical maps), but doing it on my laptop as I play on my desktop would be pretty nice too. Especially if I decide to make a fan site with maps and strategies or document my party's adventures in blog form.

fuz and gronk...Half the fun is drawing your own map guys. Now thats old school. Thats also why they provided old school mode in the settings that turns off the automap completelly.

Yes...that would actully be drawing your own map..with a computer program using the tools and symbols provided.

Thanks for the link. I really should have searched first. My apologies. AutoRealm seems like it'll do the trick, though it may be almost too much for the job. I may just break down and go pick up a pad of graph paper tonight.

EDIT: Better yet. I found a spiral bound pad of graph paper. Didn't think I had one laying around. Eeeeexcellent.
