TGT RPGs 248: Player Expectations

This week Kitty is back! And Chris puts her on the hot seat for something she said (that turns out was said in our post show chat) about wanting to be able to plan her characters spells throughout the adventuring day. What should players be able to expect from the games they play and and the DMs/GMs run? Should a roleplaying game be as unpredictable as real life, or is a more regimented structure more fun for the players? If you want to enter our 2021 giveaway, details are below. And if you're a winner this is the current list of games you get to pick from (more will be added throughout the year): Krosmaster QuestArkhanosCatalystQuest Time of HerosBlood Bowl (base game)High HeavensStop ThiefClank!Between Two CastlesAdrenalineCrusaders: Thy will be doneClash of RageDire WildFirefly AdventuresArena of the GodsMunchkin GloomThe Legand of the Cherry TreeSquarriors: The Card GameRenegadeArkham Horror: Final HourSteam RollersThe Century Spiced Road CollectionQuarriorsSpyfall 2Muchkin GloomHouse of DanagerIunuEx LibrisDungeon AllianceMunchkin QuestRace for the GalaxyThe Stonebound SagaWay of the PandaJim Hanson's LabyrinthBetrayal at House on the HillSpy ClubAlxes And Alies and ZombiesOne Night Ultimate Werewolf (collection) 2021 Giveaway Rules (subject to change at anytime for any reason) Email anytime during the year will give you 1 entry for the rest of the year.
