I'm an eager player...but not a programmer. So instead, I designed a series of
paper hex maps in PDF format for players like me who like to do their mapping
and some info management by hand (Ah, the good old days).
The hex maps print out on letter size paper and can be cut and taped together
to make larger maps. The scales are:

40 hex X 40 hex Map - (good for the Big Picture with probably only enough room
for terrain)
10 hex X 10 hex Map - (good for keeping track of the neighbors and their
neighbors with room for terrain and owner info)
5 hex X 5 hex Map - (great for cutting and piecing together a larger map of
your own empire and your nearest neighbors, lines and boxes in each hex help
keep track of almost all info on the hex and its resources).
1 hex Village Map - (fills entire page and checklists all possible buildings
that can be constructed, also has plenty of lines and areas to keep track of
titles, taxes, etc. Even has a blank Coat-of-Arms that can be filled in).

I've also scanned a sample of a filled out Village map and a portion of a 5x5
map showing how I suggest they be used (Villsamp.pdf, 3hexsamp.pdf).

These maps are available in a zipped archive at both the original Eldritch web
site and the Juggernaut Press Eldritch web site.

If you like paper as much as I do you might want to check them out.
