You could use real paper (thin) or sheet styrene and then die it the color and paint it roughly. That small a map, the small details don't matter. Just paint like the outline of the area, the map key box and a few dots, lines, and Xs on the map.

I made one on the computer for this Italian artillery officer.   It was the only way to make the lines as thin as possible.  There is a grid on it with alternating red and white bars around the borders.  It was drawn randomely and represents a contour map.  Add some sort of red line for a road and it's done.

You can actually do a Google search for a map of your liking, there are lots of WWII and modern maps on the net.  Copy the image and paste it into Power Point, re-size, and print it off.  They come out great.
