I received a PM from one of the playtesters, with a cool suggestion for speeding up play. He runs through about 20 construction phases, writing down all the details (tiles, doors, monsters and chests) on some index cards. He shuffles the cards into a deck and when it comes to the construction phase, he just flips a card to get the details rather than rolling through all the charts. Sounds too good to keep to myself!!

Yes, thanks for the mention SG. This is so easy to do and you can do it before hand. I'm a busy dad so I have to make sure my gaming time is optimized. I run through a quick series of cunstruction phases. I have all of the stuff ready to go with the required dice and the scenario chart a pencil and index cards. I roll up a cunstruction phase writing everything down on the card including monsters, chests and location of monsters and facing direction. I draw a little crude drawing of the rooms, show the doors and anything else needed.
I make a card to represent the final boss room and when I get to card twelve I add the boss card and shuffle the remaining cards.
During play, instead of stopping the action to roll on the cunstruction charts, I just flip a card. This also acts as a time track.
