El Ravager Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) I'm thinking of starting Salamanders with the new AoD box, trying to lean on the contents of that box as a foundation. Covenant of Fire RoW HQ: 387 Praetor: Paragon Blade, Volkite Charger, Melta Bombs - 162 Centurion Champion: Paragon Blade, Melta Bombs - 105 Centurion Cataphracttii Herald - Legion Standard, Chainfist - 120 Elites: 690 10 Cataphractii Terminators: 4 thunderhammers, 5 powerfists, 1 power sword, 2 Dragons Breath Heavy Flamers, 4 combi-flamers, 4 combi-bolters - 450 Contemptor Dreadnought - Gravis Multimelta, fist with built in meltagun - 195 Apothecary - 45 Troops: 800 20 Tactical Marines: Legion Vex, Chain bayonets, sarge with powerfist, artificer armour, meltabombs - 285 10 Tactical Marines: Legion Vex, Chain bayonets, sarge with powerfist, artificer armour, meltabombs - 165 10 Tactical Support Marines - Dragons Breath flamers, artificer armour on the sarge - 155 10 Tactical Support Marines - Dragons Breath flamers, artificer armour on the sarge mounted in a Rhino with Dozer Blades - 195 Heavy Support: 620 Proteus Carrier - 220 Spartan: Flare Shield, Twin Heavy Flamer - 400 Total Points: 2497 Praetor will lead the block of 20 Marines with the Apothecary, the Champion will join a Flamer Support Squad in the Proteus, Herald goes with the Terminators in the Spartan to make them Line. 90% of the models come from the new AoD box plus a support weapon box. I'll have to scrounge up some flamers and I have some MKIV I can use for one of the Support Squads. Edited July 6, 2022 by El Ravager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I suspect you’ve got a typo in your troops. Either the points are wrong for your second squad or it’s not a ten man unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm totally down for thematic/narrative lists, but I would still consider how to handle some threats so you have less lop-sided games. I think if you cut some points in the troops section for another Contemptor Dread with melta/fist loadout can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best answer this has is driving terminators straight at them and smashing them with hammers, fists and chainfists. Or meltabombs. Most people around here don't go super armour heavy, but if it's a problem, then I think the 2nd Contemptor Dread is the place to start.
