I’ve always GM’d with my laptop, never used a screen, but I like the idea of it more and more.
I was just curious what people put on there? What do you consider essential and what has come in handy for you?
For reference I run Call of Cthulhu so especially interested in that, but I’ve also done DND so really just curious in general.
It’s interesting, it seems like most people don’t use one based on this thread.
For me the wall isn’t the point, I just like the idea of not using a laptop. I already spend a lot of time on the computer.
My point was, that I do use all the quick reference hints that you would find on the back of a GM screen, I just lay them out flat before me or have them in my analog binder where I keep my notes. That’s a small binder where I can insert sheets that I need for a session and can reference older notes. The downside is that, if you play with minis etc, you would need an extra area to prepare and hide them for a surprise effect…
