    I run an HDMI cable from my wife's laptop to our HDTV and use Maptool. Maybe not quite as cool as a projector, since we can't place physical minis on the table, but I think it works.

    I am considering setting it up so that my desktop runs the GM instance so that one of the players can be responsible for moving the PC tokens around on the laptop. It gets a little bit cumbersome to be moving everything around myself, and I like to give bookkeeping jobs to the players to keep them a little bit more engaged when it isn't their turn.

    I use map only for city and country.

    Years ago, I also used dundjinni for the dungeons maps... The whole map was placed under a plexiglasssheet and convered by shhets of paper to be removed when character entered a zone.

    The plexiglass layer prevent from soda and hamburgers patches

    We played that ways for years...

    But it lacks something : Verticality.

    So 2BE3. Since march last year, I cast plaster bricks and build 3D modular dungeons...

    As you can see, the 3D setting add some dimension to the encounters.

    Enjoy
