Incredible $30 Map-Making Software Bundle Is a Virtual Tabletop GM's Dream

Following a brief run earlier this year, this cartography software collection is back for a limited time that lasts until Dec. 2. Described as an extensive collection of mapping tools created by ProFantasy Software throughout their history, the entire collection is valued at more than thirteen hundred dollars. And there are multiple package options offered in this deal.

The Main Attraction

The standout feature is definitely permanent access for Campaign Cartographer 3+, an industry-standard mapping application which enables users to generate various types including epic fantasy landscapes, detailed regional charts, urban layouts, and, perhaps most importantly, tactical combat environments.

An imaginative landscape chart generated in the CC3+ software platform.

Package Levels

Basic Package

The most affordable option, at a minimum cost of $1, includes only four of the 39 total items: Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland, Token Treasury: Monsters 1, Castle Source Maps, and Source Maps: Cities!. This package suits existing CC3+ users, yet it provides fresh fantasy design elements for landscape mapping, over seven hundred fifty creature tokens for use in virtual tabletops, more than two dozen aerial castle designs including hundreds of map markers, eight fully mapped cities, and more than 70 urban floorplans.

Mid-Range Option

The eight-item bundle for at least $15 is where things get more interesting by adding in permanent CC3+ access, the first Annual volume, Tome of Ultimate Mapping, and Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities. Cartographer's Annual is the yearly bundle from ProFantasy's long-running monthly subscription service featuring a variety CC3+ add-ons including map packs and additional utilities. The Isometric Cities enables display cities with an extra dimension using angled views from all sides. Meanwhile, the Mapping Tome is a 760-page for beginners and "power users" alike, full of tips and tutorials covering cartography techniques.

Complete Collection

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

• Advanced Terrain Generator
• Dungeon Designer 3
• Urban Planning Software
• Cosmic Mapping System
• Perspectives 3
• Dioramas 3
• Character Design Module
• Symbol Set 2: Fantasy Floorplans
• Symbol Set 3: Modern
• Symbol Set 4: Dungeons of Schley
• Schley Urban Pack
• Token Treasury: Monsters 2

• Permanent CC3+ Access
• 3D City Symbols
• Tome of Ultimate Mapping
• Symbol Set 1: Fantasy Overland
• Token Treasury: Monsters 1
• Source Maps: Castles!
• Source Maps: Cities!

Every volume from the Annual series are included here, alongside a slew of additional tools and content enabling creators to craft complete solar systems, or focus exclusively on classic fantasy realm creation: battle maps, underground complexes, cities, and continents in multiple viewpoints. Users can also create character illustrations. At thirty versus fifteen dollars, the complete collection is so worth it, especially for cartographers who have only the annual CC3+ license and want to upgrade to lifetime. However, it's clearly more advantageous for cartography beginners since it includes the beginners' tutorials to help you get started. The sole limitation though the purchase is available on any platform, the software is only usable with Windows systems.

Philanthropic Aspect

Similar to previous bundles, part of every purchase supports charitable organizations. For this one, the beneficiary is Save the Children, established in 1919 by Eglantyne Jebb dedicated to enhancing children's welfare globally through education, health care, and emergency relief. The Bundle Filters option appear near the page top, though users may also choose their donation amount on the right side of the page. Additionally available is an donation allocation menu immediately below, enabling adjustment of the distribution percentage allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
