Salamanders Sighted. At Last

Recommended Posts

Ooh, gotta love seeing Cata termies... idea of a kill team makes me wanna make one just as an excuse to get a few :)

 

As for the Sala marine, interesting laminated scale armour on the back of his helmet, but the requirements for such layers would make the head inside be very very small and definitely cause a few ridges in his skull if he were to be whacked on the back of his head - so not sure it works for me really.

 

The face mask of scaled skin - reminds me of the (chain)mail visors the old tank crews wore to prevent facial damage from shrapnel flying around inside the tank.  That scale might prevent good breathing though :)

Good god I can't wait, I just got a new job so I imagine by the time they're out I will actually have the cash to get one :)

 

Must be a Pyroclast, so I am looking forward to seeing Firedrake Cataphractii too!

 

Long live the Eighteenth! Long live Vulkan!

I'd say the scale face mask is the main reason, massacre depict a few sallies with em. The Alpha legion and the whole scale thing seems to be more of a 40k thing

 

On another note, I'm curious as to how they'll depict the pyroclast flame projectors. Will they be a merging of a melta and a flamer or perhaps will they be wrist mounted? I can't recall how they were described in Vulkan lives, anybody who remember?

isn't there a pic of a salamander in massacre with that face mask on?

Yep.  

 

I have been waiting for some salamander releases so I can figure out my legion and finally start my horus heresy project.  Hopefully the wait is not to long.
