I'm a poor student and can't afford the pricy programs that seem to be used for map making. Does anyone know of a good tool I could use that is free and not stuffed with adware or other malware?

I'm dreaming of a map, sort of like the Cradle of Dominions(?) which actually comes in three flavors, one for each age. I like the fixed start locations for each of the nations in CoD, but I'm envisioning a larger one with 22 fixed locations.

Each start province on each ages map would correspond to the equivalent faction for that age, Ie. C'Tis would start in the same place in each age. Maybe I could make some minor geographical changes in each age to represent what mighty spells and titanic struggles have done.

Thoughts? Suggestions? -Ubercat
