I'm looking for a mapping program like map tool but is easier to use.

I know how to use maptool(for the most part) but it's a little clunky and slow to add stuff on the fly. Does google sketchup fix that and still be good at sharing? Or are there other programs out there that do the same type of thing?

Thanks in advance,

Depending on what you want out of a mapping program, there are a bunch out there. If you need FoW type features, try Battlegrounds

If you just want basically a digital vinyl battle mat, check out gametable:

Fog of War would be awesome, but I could figure out how to make do without it.

Battlegrounds looks good; but since it costs a bit of cash I'm probably going to skip it(as I'm a cheapskate where I can).

I will have to check out gametable when I get home; thank you. :)
