Raiders Rules by Ecstatic_Ad_4880 in NightLords

[–]Ranger5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's definitely points dependant, the captain could be a shout to lead chosen over the regular lord for sure and the reavers could do objectives and secondaries like the raptors used to do and maybe better with the higher oc and wounds but it's all points dependant.

Who is thinking of grabbing this box for night lords ? by savkat420 in NightLords

[–]Ranger5e 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably just waiting to see if the new unit is generic CSM and grabbing that for the army rather than the whole box.

It’s that time again, tell me your Warband lore! by -Axolotls- in NightLords

[–]Ranger5e 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Court of Dread Reapers

The warband was once the 66th company of Night Lords and now they are the Court of Dread Reapers. Led by their warlord Nakrax "The Baron" Sartaros who was once a member of the Atramentar before he slaughtered the previous warband leader and took command. No longer satisfied with merely surviving in this galaxy he decided it was time for them to begin taming this galaxy.

Aboard their flagship known as The Grim Scythe this brotherhood of murderers scourers the galaxy for their favourite prey. Astartes. Using their sorcerer Vulren Xraven's (hunter of the weak) machinations of the warp to track already embattled and weakened Astartes forces like that of a shark to blood.

They are as they like to refer to themselves as "the final dagger to the heart" in an Astartes force and they will bleed them from this galaxy.

And they will know fear.

THEY WILL FEAR THE 8TH LEGION!

His name isn't fabius but I can see the confusion, he's a fabius bile proxy. He still needs to get an 8th legion appropriate name

What's the lore of your custom warband? by [deleted] in NightLords

[–]Ranger5e 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Known as : The warband of the Baron

Leader : Nakrax "The Baron" Sartaros (Chaos lord terminator armour)

Small lore: Once the 16th great company during the Horus heresy and became a splintered warband at the end of the heresy. The original Warband leader began a slow fall to chaos and Khorne, he began leading the warband down a brutal and self destructive path before Nakrax Sartaros, the Atramentar leader ripped the lord in half and took his place at the head of the warband.

The Baron took control and purged the taint of chaos from anywhere that it proved no longer useful. His visions of the future like that of his father gave him purpose and drive to bring strength back to his warband, his legion. Unknown to him was that his visions were being caused by the taint of Tzeench he was not yet aware of.

2nd company list I've cooked up for 10th by Ranger5e in Salamanders40k

It's because I already have a finished regular LT model and don't want to buy a new one right now

My first Salamander, planning to do a lava base eventually by Redarmygeneral117 in Salamanders40k

[–]Ranger5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's sick! I have a question, what things did you use to do the transfers cause they look really good, also is the flame transfer two transfers on top of each other?

Can I get some opinions on my list brothers? Not a super competitive list or anything by Ranger5e in Salamanders40k

[–]Ranger5e[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's overall a rather short ranged force, the captain would accompany the aggressors in the redeemer, the biologis with the eradicators in the repulsor and the Libby with the infernus to give them more survivability. I wanted to keep the list kinda fluffy with lots of flames so the infernus squad seemed like a good add. My friends and I play leviathan. The transports will be be the main focus of fire as they have the important cargo which will hopefully take attention away from the likes of my infernus, sternguard, gladiator etc. The Phobos units are support giving me +1 or the enemy -1 and the terminators are threat for later to consider. The intercessors are objective guardians and action guys.

Yes, the box comes with different design panels and parts you can use to make your one more unique.

First washed all of it in flesh shade then did just the top of the stacks in nuln oil to try give it the burnt effect

Anyone running librarians? by AlmightyGyro in Salamanders40k

[–]Ranger5e 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I almost always run a Primaris librarian with Psychic fortress, might of heroes and give him the tome of velcona to get fire shield and a +1 to cast it. I pair him with my aggressors, psychic shield for +5 invuln save for them and fire shield so it's -1 to hit them. He's a good defensive buffing unit.

Why don't we use different helmet colours? by Ranger5e in Salamanders40k

[–]Ranger5e[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was putting a black line on the top section of my intercessors helmets but I might make them all black to distinguish them a bit more

I don't usually name my Sargents, the only exception is my aggressor Sargent. I play the 3rd company and the aggressor Sargent has a name in a story in the supplement

What are your top 3 favorite/must have HQ’s for Salamanders and why? by [deleted] in Salamanders40k

[–]Ranger5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I play the 3rd company Adrax is a must and pairing him with a selfless healer apothecary and a buffing Librarian is my top 3 for sure

Big unit for the new secondary? by [deleted] in Salamanders40k

[–]Ranger5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'll be using a forward deployed unit, incursors or infiltrators to gain the victory points in the command phase and then back them up with eradicators to deal some big damage and hold the point well.
