Incredible $30 Cartography Software Bundle Represents a Virtual Tabletop GM's Dream

Following a short availability earlier this year, this cartography software collection has returned with an encore that lasts until Dec. 2. Described as an extensive collection of mapping tools created by a specialized software company throughout their history, the complete package is valued at more than thirteen hundred dollars. Additionally, there exist three different bundles available here.

The Main Attraction

The standout feature is certainly a lifetime license to the CC3+ software, a professional-grade mapping application that can be used to generate various types including epic fantasy landscapes, detailed regional charts, urban layouts, and most notably, dungeon and tabletop battle maps.

A regional fantasy map generated in the CC3+ software platform.

Bundle Tiers

Basic Package

The most affordable option, starting at just one dollar, includes only four of the 39 total items: Fantasy Overland Symbol Collection, Token Treasury: Monsters 1, Castle Source Maps, Urban Source Maps. This package suits cartographers who already have CC3+, but it does offer new fantasy symbol styles for overworld maps, 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, and more than 70 urban floorplans.

Intermediate Package

The eight-item bundle starting at fifteen dollars is where things get more interesting through inclusion of a lifetime CC3+ license, Cartographer's Annual Vol 1, Tome of Ultimate Mapping, and Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities. Cartographer's Annual is the annual collection from ProFantasy's long-running monthly subscription service featuring multiple CC3+ enhancements including map packs and various other tools. The Isometric Cities enables present urban areas in 3D perspective using angled views from all sides. Meanwhile, the Mapping Tome is a 760-page suitable for novices and experts, full of tips and tutorials for the map-making process.

Complete Collection

Starting at thirty dollars, the 39-item bundle includes all the following:

• Advanced Terrain Generator
• Dungeon Creation Tool
• City Designer 3
• Cosmographer 3
• Viewpoint Enhancement
• Scene Builder
• Character Design Module
• Symbol Set 2: Fantasy Floorplans
• Symbol Set 3: Modern
• Schley Dungeon Collection
• Symbol Set 5: Cities of Schley
• Monster Token Collection 2
• Religious Structure Maps
• Historical War Maps
• World Builder’s Compendium
• Cartographer’s Annual Vol 1-17
• Permanent CC3+ Access
• Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities
• Comprehensive Mapping Guide
• Fantasy Landscape Symbols
• Monster Token Set 1
• Source Maps: Castles!
• Metropolitan Source Maps

All 17 volumes from the Annual series come with this bundle, plus numerous additional tools and content that can help users craft complete solar systems, or focus exclusively on traditional fantasy world-building: battle maps, dungeons, cities, and continents in multiple viewpoints. You can even design character portraits. For $30 as opposed to $15, the complete collection offers tremendous value, particularly for mappers who have only the annual CC3+ license seeking permanent licensing. However, it's clearly more advantageous for map-making newbies considering you even get the beginners' tutorials to help you get started. The sole limitation is that while the purchase is available on any platform, the applications only function with Windows systems.

Philanthropic Aspect

As with other Humble Bundles, a portion of each sale goes to benefit a nonprofit. In this instance, that's Save the Children, established in 1919 by Eglantyne Jebb dedicated to enhancing children's welfare globally via educational programs, medical services, and crisis response. The Bundle Filters option appear near the page top, but you can also select their donation amount in the right-hand section. Additionally available is an donation allocation menu immediately below, enabling adjustment of the distribution percentage allocated between the platform, developer, and charity.
