Warning: My Gloomhaven campaign setup took 45 minutes last night

We had to sort all the monster standees and map tiles for scenario 47. Anyone know a faster way to organize this stuff?

Ugh, that setup time is the real final boss. We gave up and bought a fishing tackle box for all the monster tokens, which sort of helps until you need that one specific tile buried at the bottom. Doesn't it feel like you spend more time sorting pieces than actually playing the game sometimes? I keep all the map tiles in numbered envelopes now, but even that takes forever to find. Maybe the faster way is just to never put anything away.

Honestly the tackle box is a game changer for me lol. I just dump all the tokens in there loose and shake it to find what I need. Still takes a minute but way better than baggies.

My buddy went full chaos mode and just uses a big plastic salad bowl for all his Catan pieces. Claims the "archaeological dig" vibe adds to the experience. Honestly, watching him fish for a city token is its own mini-game.
