Amazing $30 Map-Making Software Bundle Is a Online Gaming GM's Dream
After a short availability back in April, this cartography software collection has returned with an encore available through early December. Hailed as a "treasure trove of assets and apps" developed by ProFantasy Software throughout their history, the entire collection is valued at over $1,300. Additionally, there exist three different bundles offered in this deal.
The Main Attraction
The standout feature is definitely a lifetime license to the CC3+ software, a professional-grade cartography program that can be used to generate various types including fantasy overworld maps, smaller regional maps, urban layouts, and most notably, tactical combat environments.
An imaginative landscape chart created using Campaign Cartographer 3+.
