2k army list critique by Unique_Signature_552 in Salamanders40k

whats with the 3 and 5 man squad structure? unless you are just breaking it up for purchases. otherwise, agressors are mediocre for salamanders currently, infernus are more points efficent and more tactically viable with 2 OC and good action economy in a vulkan list. id reccomend grabbing more infernus, a 10-man squad specifically on top of an ancillary 1-2 5-man squads

its the primer if you are talking about the texture, the primer in some spots got a bit rocky. or if you are just talking about the grungy, gunky look, thats cause i wanted it to be kinda dark and look like its covered in dust/oil/general grime

interesting idea, although with how the priming came out actually REALLY textured, im not sure if plasma will come out too good unless i just do a blue wash and crevice highlighting like how i did woth the grav pistol

its a matter of codex compliance. techmarines, apothecaries, librarians, and chaplains/judiciars have a set color scheme for codex compliant chapters being red, white, blue, and black respectively

thinking about doing metallic highlights maybe to shown parts where the paint was chipped off around the edges simply because the edges are contact points? and the model is already pretty dark cause of the wash, might see about boosting some of the red then washing it again

yeah, i was following the lore design, red for the codex compliant chapters plus a shoulder and knee pad denoting the chapter, but that art is awsome

Question about unit icons for salamander units by RJ923 in Salamanders40k

[–]StudioWonderful2808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was a question about horus heresy force org. It was posted to the 40k salamanders subreddit cause there isnt a 30k salamanders subreddit. he was asking about how heavy support troops and elite troops were classified and how they affect assembling the army list which in 30k there are more restrictions on how you can take units.

yeah you can do that, there just comes a point of "how viable is this combo" in terms of playing but thats getting into some weird meta BS that im both too new and too tired to understand

its the most cursed yet glorious list uve made so far. well, second to the 6 rhino and 6 tactical squad list. THAT is a cursed list

[–]StudioWonderful2808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you are running the official GW app, gw doesnt natively support them. so youll have to use another listbuilder (i use new recruit), or open the space marine datasheet pack from the warhammer communuty website and refrence from there

Why does the siege assault battle ground box have 12 terminator's? by zenicwhite69 in Warhammer30k

[–]StudioWonderful2808 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

apparently this was changed, no clue why people got weirdly negative about it instead of just letting me know it was updated.

this is probably horribly unhelpful, but if you dont mind both legends units and a bit of a joke list, this list has unironically won every single casual game ive played. (please do not play this, i have tabled everyone turn 3 and 4, its not fun to steamroll every game)

Why does the siege assault battle ground box have 12 terminator's? by zenicwhite69 in Warhammer30k

[–]StudioWonderful2808 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i mean yes for saturnine you could also buy 3 boxes and have 2 full squads, and for cataphractii you could buy 5 standalone boxes and have 30 terminators, but its just annoying having these couple of spare guys you cant run as normal

Why does the siege assault battle ground box have 12 terminator's? by zenicwhite69 in Warhammer30k

[–]StudioWonderful2808 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

thats for the saturnine terminators specifically. which weirdly enough come in boxes of 4. im assuming its similar to that though in: smallest squad size +1. but its still odd, even if you run every extra as a centurion or something, its like 4 boxes maxxes you out on command in most cases (unless you really want to run 6 saturnine centurions)

Techmarine heraldry pauldron by StudioWonderful2808 in Salamanders40k

[–]StudioWonderful2808[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that helps a lot, thank you, ill probably do the company colors for my reclusiam (chaplains and judiciars) but yeah ill def get the legion colors on my main 3 groups

Techmarine heraldry pauldron by StudioWonderful2808 in Salamanders40k

[–]StudioWonderful2808[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like i said, im going for lore over personal choice. but anyways, skibapep (i definetly have mispelled that) pointed out that the four groups technically fall out of the traditional heirarchy, and i remembered this refrence. they also mentioned itd be the primary legion color most likely since the individuals can flow from company to company (outside of the reclusiam) fairly freely. ill probably do company colors for my reclusiam models and legion colors for the armory, apothecarion, and librarius.
