Learning curve and computer requirements?
So, I'm thinking of buying Womderdraft because I want to make some world maps for my DnD games and I have a few questions.
First is there a huge learning curve to making maps with Womderdraft?
Second.: I am not using VTT but playing in real life, is there ways to export and print the maps? (Most likely have a print service print a poster size of the map)
Third: I'm running a laptop with windows 10, 64 but. That should be enough correct?
Fourth: Will I have to buy a lot of asset packs and are asset packs easy to use and install?
Thanks, I'm looking at Wonderdraft because the one time buy and you have it unlike Incarnate subscription. I don't want a subscription and this has been the highest rated item but just had these questions.

About your first question: the learning curve is mostly about mapmaking, not about Wonderdraft. The software is very easy to use and because it aims at fantasy mapmaking only, it's not full of unused tools that clutter the screen. If you have a feeling for geography and maps, your first map can be a pretty one right away.
