I like how it produced variations in a group of orc's AC and HP by using different armor and stats (and weapons, too). My monster groups are always so boring, "Up ahead you spot a gang of six goblins all wearing tattered leather armor and sporting morningstars". Bleh.Up until now I haven't used a laptop (or other computer) at the game table, but for our next session I'm planning to use Winamp to play environmental tracks and possibly some music for battles, tavern scenes, and the like. I tried a couple of cheapo pairs of speakers, but they sound pretty bad, so I'll probably drag along the Altec-Lansing set that has a subwoofer. Bummer that we don't play at my house, but my wife wouldn't be too happy with me keeping the kids up until 11pm or 12am.I may try using Excel as a combat/initiative tracker, if it doesn't prove to be any slower than my current paper and pencil method. I just worried that the game will become focused on using the laptop versus interacting with each other at the table.</blockquote>
