The Cartographer’s Annual November issue is now available. Seeing the popularity of the Hand-drawn Fantasy style from May and June, we decided to expand this kind of symbols to the Floorplans and Dungeons map types, and the result is this new set. Use more than 140 new, hand-crafted symbols to map building and underground lairs.

As Mike Schley is busy working on another project we can’t quite talk about yet, we are pivoting the free monthly symbols from the Dungeons of Schley style to the Hand-drawn Fantasy style introduced with the Cartographer’s Annual 2025. This month we add elven stuctures to the style, from large cities to towers, hidden strongholds and holy sites.

Note that the example maps included with this free content make use of the full Hand-drawn Fantasy style from the Cartographer’s Annual 2025. If you don’t have that Annual installed, you won’t see these correctly, but you can still use the symbols on other maps. The Cartographer’s Annual 2025 is available for purchase here.

To download the free content go to your registration page and on the Downloads tab, click the download button for Campaign Cartographer 3 Plus. The new symbols are listed there. All the content of year (up to August 2025) is included in the one download.

You can always check the available monthly content on our dedicated page.

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 May issue of the Cartographer’s Annual 2025 is now available. This month brings you a new overland style, by yours truly. I’ve been inspired to sit down with pencil and inks, create some hand-drawn symbols and then create a fresh new style from them. In addition to giving you a nice and easy-to-use overland style, it will allow me to show the whole process of creating and using your own artwork in CC3+. I will also be able to easily expand the style with additional symbols in the future.
