A question about how you play with it: do you roll the dice in front of your computer?
I've been playing with a little program called TableSmith which can automate tables and I've been able to put all tables of the Troll Lair quest on it. I'm still working out the kinks, but I think I'll be able to generate pretty much everything with a click. Here's an example of the output:
Location: Corner Monster: Ghoblins (2) & Orc (1) Encounter: Chests (2) Door: Unlocked Door Dif:1 Chest: Unlocked Dif:1 Door Trap: None Chest Trap: Venom Barb – Dif: 1 WIT A small barb is hidden within the lock ready to prick the would-be disarmer. This trap only affects the Hero opening the chest. The venom reduces the Hero’s stats (except LIF and MAG) to 1, until he can consume an Antidote and reverse the venom’s effect. Also, at the end of each Action Phase the Hero will lose 1 LIF. Treasure: 5 Gold Coins
Location: Room 6x6 (2 doors) Monster: Orcs (4) Encounter: Chests (1) Door: Unlocked Door Dif:1 Chest: Unlocked Dif:1 Door Trap: Falling Stone – Dif: 1 DEX A sandstone block drops to the ground, shattering as it impacts the Hero. All characters in the two squares directly in front of the door take two points of damage. Each gets to roll DEF. Chest Trap: None Treasure: Potion of Healing
Now I'm trying to get it to roll only for things that do happen (like rolling for treasure only if there is a chest) and roll multiple times for things like door locks and traps.

That sounds like a pretty cool program to use. I just use the dice funtionality built into cyberboard. If you look on the toolbar, you'll see a little dice icon. If you click on it, it will bring up a dice dialog for you to use. I must admit though, TableSmith sounds pretty cool

Wow, I need to go through this to figure it all out, but it looks great!

I cannot seem to get this to work, I guess they updated the cyberboard, any new how to fix this?

I also tried to get DP to work with CyberBoard but it keeps telling me that I need DP gbx file. Where I can get one?

The original link to the GBX file seems to be broken. Does anyone else have the file to share?
Thanks!
