Amazing $30 Cartography Software Bundle Is a Online Gaming GM's Dream

Following a short availability earlier this year, this cartography software collection is back with an encore available through early December. Hailed as a "treasure trove of assets and apps" created by a specialized software company over the years, the entire collection carries a value of over $1,300. Additionally, there exist multiple package options available here.

The Main Attraction

The standout feature is certainly permanent access for Campaign Cartographer 3+, an industry-standard cartography program that can be used to generate various types including fantasy overworld maps, detailed regional charts, city maps, and, perhaps most importantly, dungeon and tabletop battle maps.

A regional fantasy map created using the CC3+ software platform.

Package Levels

Entry Level

The most affordable option, at a minimum cost of $1, features merely four from the thirty-nine available products: Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland, Token Treasury: Monsters 1, Castle Source Maps, Urban Source Maps. This one's only for existing CC3+ users, yet it provides fresh fantasy design elements for landscape mapping, over seven hundred fifty creature tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, more than two dozen aerial castle designs including hundreds of map markers, eight fully mapped cities, plus seventy-plus building interiors.

Intermediate Package

The eight-product collection for at least $15 is where things get more interesting through inclusion of permanent CC3+ access, Cartographer's Annual Vol 1, Tome of Ultimate Mapping, and Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities. The Annual represents the yearly bundle from the company's ongoing subscription program which includes a variety CC3+ add-ons including map packs and additional utilities. Isometric Cities lets you present urban areas in 3D perspective using angled views from multiple angles. And the Tome of Ultimate Mapping is a 760-page suitable for novices and experts, full of tips and tutorials for the map-making process.

Full Package

Starting at thirty dollars, the comprehensive package includes all the following:

• Fractal Terrains 3+
• Dungeon Designer 3
• Urban Planning Software
• Cosmic Mapping System
• Perspectives 3
• Scene Builder
• Character Artist 3
• Symbol Set 2: Fantasy Floorplans
• Symbol Set 3: Modern
• Symbol Set 4: Dungeons of Schley
• Symbol Set 5: Cities of Schley
• Monster Token Collection 2
• Religious Structure Maps
• Historical War Maps
• World Creation Guide
• Cartographer’s Annual Vol 1-17
• Campaign Cartographer 3+ (Lifetime License)
• 3D City Symbols
• Comprehensive Mapping Guide
• Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland
• Token Treasury: Monsters 1
• Fortress Source Maps
• Source Maps: Cities!

All 17 volumes from the Annual series come with this bundle, plus numerous other resource and asset packs that can help users design entire planets or galaxies, or focus exclusively on traditional fantasy world-building: battle maps, underground complexes, cities, and land masses in multiple viewpoints. You can even design character illustrations. For $30 as opposed to $15, the complete collection offers tremendous value, especially for cartographers with temporary CC3+ access seeking permanent licensing. However, it's clearly more advantageous for map-making newbies considering you even get the beginners' tutorials to facilitate learning. The sole limitation though you can redeem the deal across platforms, the software is only usable on Windows.

Philanthropic Aspect

Similar to previous bundles, a portion of each sale goes to benefit a nonprofit. In this instance, the beneficiary is Save the Children, established in 1919 by Eglantyne Jebb dedicated to enhancing children's welfare globally via educational programs, medical services, and crisis response. Package customization options appear near the page top, but you can also select any amount for a donation on the right side of the page. There's also an "Adjust Donation" drop-down immediately below, enabling adjustment of the distribution percentage goes to Humble, Profantasy, and Save the Children.
