The July issue of the Cartographer’s Annual 2025 is now available, and with it the work of a new map-maker among our contributors. We found Prajyot Kumar‘s map work very interesting and asked him to create a style for CC3+. Here is the result, a vibrant and colorful overland style, well-suited to mapping individual regions of a fantasy world – hence the name.
The July issue is now available for all subscribers from their registration page. If you haven’t subscribed to the Annual 2025 yet, you can do so here.
The June issue of the Cartographer’s Annual 2025 is available, adding a large selection of new symbols and tools to the hand-drawn overland style published last month.

Mike Schley created another set of dungeon symbols for the free monthly content and your pleasure. This month the set adds lots of paraphernalia that you might find in the study of a “man of science”, like an astrolabe, brushes and an easel, a globe of the world and a telescope. And not to forget a staff and wizard’s hat!
Note that the example maps included with this free content make use of Symbol Set 4 to showcase the symbols in proper surroundings. If you don’t have SS4 installed, you won’t see these correctly, but you can still use the symbols on other maps. Symbol Set 4 – Dungeons of Schley is available for purchase here.

Mike Schley created a new set of dungeon symbols for the free monthly content and your pleasure. Take a seat on one of these symbols to feel like royalty, but beware, the throne might crumble beneath you and dump you unceremoniously on the floor! The April symbol pack “Royal Seating” contains 20 new symbols for the Dungeons of Schley style, and provides a range of sumptuous thrones to seat that royalty – or show its decline and fall with the destroyed versions.
