    Default Campaign Cartographer 3+ Mapping Class 101

    Hello all of you new (and veteran) users of Campaign Cartographer 3+.

    Over on the Profantasy forum I decided to start a class to teach people how to use CC3+. It is mainly geared toward the beginning CC3+ user but eventually I plan to take it to the more advanced level.

    If you are new to CC3+ and are interested in learning how to become a better mapper then please come by and join in the class. If you are a veteran CC3+ user and feel like stopping by, maybe to impart some invaluable wisdom, then please do (of course, you can join the class too if you want to.)

    And if you are just interested in lurking and seeing what is going on then please do.

    If you are interested, the link is:

    I hope to see you there

    Thanks Mouse. To be honest I was surprised that no one has done this before now. But I'm glad it is happening because there is a wealth of information being talked about. And everyone has been so kind in offering little tidbits of things they have discovered as well. It really is turning in to a great class. Thanks for being a part of it.

    I think Tonnichiwa has already added it to the end of the very last lesson over at the Profantasy Forum - after he made this post
