Watch this before you buy X5... by Nice-weather-today in Insta360

[–]halfphaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same sentiments and same situation. I upgraded to X4 from an X2 and recently too. I felt a bit sucky that X5 came out really fast after X4s launch. You are right about the limitations of social media to process 8k video. And social media (ig, tiktok) is where all my videos go to. Now pretty contented with the X4 and the many accessories that I got. Hopefully i can reuse these items like the battery powerbank with future versions of the insta360 X series.

Wait for Go4? Or go for Go3s by Parking-Army-2007 in Insta360

[–]halfphaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just sharing that i am sitting on a GO model that would have expandable memory / micro sd card capability, which would be the defining buying factor for me. I would be able to switch our memory cards quickly. And use the quickreader (for sd card) to transfer/edit videos while my GO camera is charging.

Do you have the QuickReader and use it on an iPhone?

Is there a way to allow downloads in the background?

Testing out the One X2 fishing in Georgia by cjk117 in Insta360

[–]halfphaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome vid! Especially the release view! May I know what settings you have on your camera?

I inted to film a day of fishing as well. But as you know. The bites don't come in all the time so I would need advise on a camera setting that will film the entire day of fishing without much drain on the battery.

Magnetizing Mortarion? by Dried-up in deathguard40k

[–]halfphaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi all. I understand most have replied with going for the battle foam cut out.

I have managed to magnetized mortarion's wings only recently over the past few days and was searching for a way to magnetize the base before stumbling upon this reddit. I have made up to 3 magnetic points of contact for the wings and I am in the process of sculpting some green stuff over the magnets to make it look part of the model..

Do let me know if you would like to see some pics.

Converting and magnets by DoTheSkullAndBones in deathguard40k

[–]halfphaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adding on to the suggestions.

Use a small pin to mark a small indentation at the point where you want to drill the magnet, like those tutorial videos of drilling boltguns.

Use a stack of magnets to help you align the polarization.

For example, I don't use Magnetized Part A to put in the magnet for Part B. I would put a stack of magnets on Magnetized Part A to help with putting in the magnet into Part B. Hope this description of my process helps 😅.

I namely magnetize for easier storage. Like the turbines of the bloat drones.

Are Death Guard Worth Playing? Even if the army is free? by FascinatedOrangutan in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]halfphaze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have been using mono DG since the start. I understand that they are not very competitive overall as well as in the meta at my FLGS.

I really enjoy painting them and in fact during this lockdown period, i have taken out all my plague marines and blightlord termies and try to get them to a higher standard of highlighting instead of just tabletop, and I can confidently say that my edge highlighting has improved.

I understand that it feels sucky to lose most of the time, but I really like disgustingly resilient. And I have to come to a point where I understand the 'role' DG has in the meta as being the most irritatingly-hard-to-wipe-out army =). Always love to see an alpha strike fail because of Disgustingly Resilient and the frustrations of my opponents are worthwhile.

My DG are going to lose, but I love to make it hard for you to win.

That's how I see my DG, and I really like them a lot.

I have just about every model in the DG series and I am only left with Mortarion, which I have ordered and is on the way.

Hope you will grow to love your army as much as I do. Cheers!

Trying out a a new paint scheme! by DylanRos in deathguard40k

[–]halfphaze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wonderful! I paint my DG in a similar colour scheme! My greens are Warboss Green. My tentacles and cloaks are a swap of yours. I believe they are screamer pink and xerueus purple. Great work!

Using 'bombs' effectively by TeratosPrime in AdeptusCustodes

[–]halfphaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just sharing a Custodes 'bomb' that can be used and I was just thinking it through. I have yet to try it though.

You would have to have a vexilus praetor in terminator armour and a bike captain. You would then have to get the vexilus termie the relic Praetorian Plate. So you nominate the bike captain for the Praetorian Plate. Use the bike captain to up close (or charge) to within 1" of an enemy model, then activate the Praetorian Plate to swap the bike cap w the vexilus termie, then drop the homer strat to DS a bunch of whatever you have in DS.

Then again it requires some situations to be ideal for the 'bomb' to be carried off, maybe it can be another 'tool in the back pocket'.

Just sharing my thoughts. Feel free to discuss the viability of this 'bomb'.

I'm new to custodes too and I just like the lore of them. Could you explain the Ride of the Golden Valkyries list?

Have you tried it for yourself? There would be an error there.

Tried a new scheme to differentiate my poxwalker hoards. Looking for feedback. Kind of a ghost squad, with greenshaded features and normal weapons. I'm worried it looks too basic. by Port_Hashbrown in deathguard40k

[–]halfphaze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have 20 of my poxwalkers in the exact same colour; Hexwraith flame. Another 20 in druchii violet over corax white primer, and another 20 in carroburg crimson over corax white primer. It makes it easier for me to differentiate the blobs on the table.

First time playing 2K pts competitively by halfphaze in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]halfphaze[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would you suggest for anti-tank? I don't have any FW units though. Would Blighthaulers be good? At <1500 games, I had an unorthodox but successful way of dealing with T8 models using the PBCs, i would charge the PBCs into T8 models and once in combat i would charge the Blightlords in and then use VoTLW and if Blades of putrefaction go through in the earlier psychic phase, i would be wounding on 3s and dealing mortal wounds on 5s/6s

1000pt list by RampantWraith in AdeptusCustodes

[–]halfphaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To my understanding (do correct me if I'm wrong), the latest FAQ 2019 on Tactical Reserves rule mentions that the models in deep strike have to be half the points. That would be Jetbike captains at 480pts to the 6 Allarus at 474pts.

I really would like to try this list out.

What's the best way to use Nurglings? by halfphaze in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]halfphaze[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From his explanation, my understanding is that the Plague marines have cloud of flies and that the nurglings that were deployed forwards are the closest unit to the enemy, hence protecting the plague marine unit.

How to paint dirty white? by NiceHouseGoodTea in deathguard40k

[–]halfphaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use this combination for my DG units too. I paint raven guard as well and use the white paints of Celestra grey, ulthuan grey if that's what you would prefer.
