Razzy Rants: "Most of the time"

Image
I do what I have to.. The rest of the time, I do what I want to." A quote I've remembered since the first time I heard it. (Bonus points for those who know where it comes from). And in today's day and age, where servants are a thing of the past, why does this remain true? Let me sketch my life in short. I'm a fulltime father of 2 beautiful children. I work as an IT consultant where I'm being called to and fro by not only clients, but also my bosses. I've got way too many hobbies which involve me to actively play with other people and I only have about 24h a day. How to fracking do it...

Dropzone Commander: UCM vs Scourge - Playthrough

Image
It is time to introduce Dropzone Commander to my gaming Club and they were more than happy to give this game a shot. So I set up the game using the starters set and invited all the members to come looking! 2 volunteers were chosen to play while I moderated. After explaining the basic mechanics and tactics most of the rules were clear and they were off to the Dropzone. Table setup

Razzy Rants: Music was my first love

.. and it will be my last. Words made immortal by the the artist John Miles in an amazing song. But just why is this the case? I can certainly tell for myself that this will most likely be the case.

DreadBall: First impressions

Image
Playing some DreadBall I must say this game totally blew my socks off. I've been playing Bloodbowl for some time now, but this cannot compare to the dynamic properties of DreadBall. Let me walk you through some of my games..

DreadBall: Review

Mantic Games is known for having excellent, playable, exciting and easy-to-learn tabletop games. DreadBall is a futuristic version of the known sports Rugby/Football. But how well goes the transition to tabletop?

Razzy Rants: The joy of (single)parenting

Image
All parents know the feeling of being a single parent. Being in a (mostly) loving relationship, or really being a single parent, sometimes we just feel like those kids are out to get us. But why is that?

this shot I've found while looking online for some layered shots. I've found a great site, and might use it to impress my guests. The treat I've got this time goes perfect with chocolate chip cookies!

Razzy Rants: Gimme more drugs!

Image
Today my favourite radio station is dedicated to the use of drugs among the public. Which got me thinking about all the drugs around me. Some are depicted as harmless, but can have a very serious impact on your life.. So let's start exploring all those drugs I've come in contact with?

Razzy Rants: The beginning

Image
A while ago, some of my friends proposed I should start a blog. Not only so they shouldn't have to listen to all my rantings, but because sometimes I do have something interesting to say.. and so, this sanctum was started..

Let's drink! Batman shot

Image
I once found a recipy for this shot in an old magazine, sponsored by Bacardi, but it always scores when people come over. The shot is a blend of 3 flavours, each taking their own impact while you drink them!

Senran Kagura Burst: Review (3DS)

Image
Boobs. This actually sums up the entire game. This side scrolling anime action game written by Tamsoft brings the players a very edgy "ecchi" title to the european market. So I've placed my 3DS to his full 3D, and dove right in (the cleavage!)

Let's drink! Cuba Libre

A lazy night, you just got back from the beach and are still enjoying the freshness in the air? then this is a drink for you! The Cuba libre is a mix of rum and coke, tasting very fresh with a sharp aftertaste. By changing the type of rum, you quickly change the allround taste of the drink.
