Amazing $30 Cartography Humble Bundle Represents a Virtual Tabletop GM's Dream

Following a short availability back in April, this cartography software collection has returned with an encore that lasts through early December. Hailed as a "treasure trove of assets and apps" developed by a specialized software company over the years, the entire collection carries a value of more than thirteen hundred dollars. Additionally, there exist three different bundles offered in this deal.

The Main Attraction

The big draw is definitely a lifetime license to the CC3+ software, an industry-standard mapping application which enables users to create everything from fantasy overworld maps, detailed regional charts, city maps, and, perhaps most importantly, dungeon and tabletop battle maps.

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

Package Levels

Entry Level

The cheapest bundle tier, starting at just one dollar, includes only four from the thirty-nine available products: Fantasy Overland Symbol Collection, Token Treasury: Monsters 1, Source Maps: Castles!, and Source Maps: Cities!. This package suits existing CC3+ users, but it does offer new fantasy symbol styles for overworld maps, more than 750 monster tokens compatible with online gaming platforms, over twenty-five top-down castle layouts with 470 associated map tokens, eight complete urban centers, plus seventy-plus building interiors.

Intermediate Package

The eight-item bundle 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 annual collection from the company's ongoing subscription program which includes 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. And the Tome of Ultimate Mapping is a 760-page for beginners and "power users" alike, full of tips and tutorials for the map-making process.

Complete Collection

Starting at thirty dollars, the comprehensive package contains these components:

• Fractal Terrains 3+
• Dungeon Designer 3
• Urban Planning Software
• Cosmic Mapping System
• Viewpoint Enhancement
• Scene Builder
• Character Artist 3
• Fantasy Interior Symbols
• Symbol Set 3: Modern
• Symbol Set 4: Dungeons of Schley
• Schley Urban Pack
• Monster Token Collection 2
• Religious Structure Maps
• World War 2 Interactive Atlas
• World Builder’s Compendium
• Cartographer’s Annual Vol 1-17
• Campaign Cartographer 3+ (Lifetime License)
• Symbol Set 6: Isometric Cities
• Comprehensive Mapping Guide
• Fantasy Landscape Symbols
• Monster Token Set 1
• Source Maps: Castles!
• Source Maps: Cities!

All 17 volumes of Cartographer's Annual are included here, alongside a slew of additional tools and content that can help users design entire planets or galaxies, or just go all-in on classic fantasy realm creation: combat arenas, dungeons, cities, and land masses from almost any perspective. Users can also create character illustrations. For $30 as opposed to $15, 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 introductory guides to help you get started. The one caveat here though you can redeem the deal on any platform, the applications only function with Windows systems.

Charitable Component

As with other Humble Bundles, part of every purchase supports charitable organizations. In this instance, 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 is toward the top of the page, but you can also select their donation amount in the right-hand section. Additionally available is an "Adjust Donation" drop-down just below that, allowing you to adjust how much of your donation goes to Humble, Profantasy, and Save the Children.
