I let HL auto generate initiative for NPCs/enemies. Then I have the players readout their roll and I type it in a resort. It takes less time than setting up the Paizo Combat Pad that I used to use before I started using HL's tactical console. May not be as fast as rearranging character tents, but is not much slower and is actually less distracting, requires less things to clutter the table, and it worth the few extra seconds for how much easier it is to manage combat.
Now if only the tactical console would help me easily track conditions and other time-limited effects.
