[This article was originally authored in Oct 2010 but published later.] Yesterday I finally started digging into Campaign Cartographer 3 and Dungeon Designer 3. This application is NOT for the timid. I am still entranced by the promise of the beautiful maps I know it will create, but I’m now a bit afraid that this will not come lightly. Still, like all parts of this project, I’m assuming that it will come easier as I get deeper into it. Thurs night will be the next game...
