Greyall Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Chain-mail mask...? That sounds Un-Salamander-y. Also, is it just my tired old eyes or does the golden-helmed Salamnder in the image above have a new helmet? Might be converted, though.

Kol Saresk Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Not really. A lot of people who work with fire usually have cloths over their faces to help them breathe in the smoke. With power armor, it becomes redundant so they probably wear the chainmail over their face plates in a ceremonial gesture.

Greyall Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Aye, I meant aesthetically. Sounds like the fashion choice of a medieval serial killer.

Greyall Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I'm imagining a squad of the Circle of Ashes going all psycho on innocents and books and innocent books when suddendly in come 20 heavy flamer-armed Pyroclasts with chainmail masks and red eyes glowing behind them. I'd start praying to the Emperor, the Gods or the chair next to me too...

Wade Garrett Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 "Captain, the Word Bearers are burning a library!" "Send in the Pyroclasts to stop them and save the books!" Umm...Mr. Salamander? Have you thought this through? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278808-what-are-the-pyroclasts/page/2/#findComment-3432925 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyall Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Hehe, come on, all those flame weapon usage by the Salamanders has to bring up the pyro-spark in some of them. Chain-mail masks don't make that conclusion any less wrong.

Anvilarium Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Chain-mail mask...? That sounds Un-Salamander-y. Also, is it just my tired old eyes or does the golden-helmed Salamnder in the image above have a new helmet? Might be converted, though. Its a conversion. The Salamander force on display at the Weekender was the personal Heresy Army of one of the FW Designers. We asked if the units with dragonscale and special armour parts were prototypes for the upcoming Salamanders and he told us that they were all his own personal conversions.

Kol Saresk Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 The chain-mail mask was from Vulkan Lives, not the display army. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278808-what-are-the-pyroclasts/page/2/#findComment-3433037 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Urza's responding to my question about the image in page 1. I thought the gold-helmed salamander was a new model (well, a new helm model) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278808-what-are-the-pyroclasts/page/2/#findComment-3433039 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Apologies, I thought he was responding to the entire post, not just the question about the model.
