Saving Throes # 70 - Crowing From the Perch: Tournament Style Play

Red Rooster's Gaming Coop

Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.
D&D has a long and rich history of gaming tournaments, and this has produced some of the most memorable published scenarios in the game's history so far. Tournament style play can be difficult to arrange and execute properly, but if you get a chance to be a part of it, it is worth the effort in my opinion. In this episode I just wanted to geek out a bit about my appreciation for this style of play. From the fabled D&D Open which has long been a part of the game, if not every single year, to the PVP stylings of other 3rd party tournaments, this is a style of game that can really set your game or convention apart from the others. Tune in to hear about the different styles of tournament play and which ones I have had the good fortune of being part of, as well as which one my group came out the champions of!
