Some time ago i had developed an army list for the Salamanders Space Marine chapter. I posted it on the old SG-Forum ( http://www.specialist-games.com/epic/fo ... IC_ID=5304 ) and will repeat it here.
Sadly i hand't enpugh time to playtest this list. So help would be appreciated.
The armylist is based on the Wh40k Codex: Armageddon.
Salamanders Special Rules:
To the last man
Salamanders Space Marines are very stubborn. They cannot bear to loose a battle. Because of this the Salamanders player can choose to continue an assault if the Salamanders formation looses the assault instead of withdrawing.
That is: Another round of the assault is been made (in the same manner as in the case of a tie)instead of withdrawing, but because the Salamanders count as broken (they lost the first round of the assault!) they would be wiped out if they loose the second round.
Low reflexes
The reflexes of Salamanders Space Marines are not as fast as those of other Chapters, although still quick when suited in power armour. However, it is unknown whether this is due to a defect in the gene-seed, a result of their high gravity world, or comes about from the Chapter's doctrines against hastiness and impetuosity. Due to this they receive a -1 penalty on all action tests (Initiative is 2+ instead of 1+).
Salamanders armies also have limited access to Fast Attack detachments. In rule terms you can only choose 1 Fast Attack detchament (this are Assault-, Bike- and Land Speeder-detachments) for every 2 non-fast attack detachments (this are all other detachments).
Ceramite armour
Most of the Salamanders armoured vehicles are sheated in heat-resistant ceramite armour. Because of this multi-meltas loose their Macroweapon-abillity against all Armoured Vehicles of the Salamanders (a Multi Melta would count as AT5+ instead of MW5+).
New Salamanders Space Marine Units
The Salamanders Predator Destructor is an addition wich can be choosen instead of the Space Marine Predator Destructor.
The Salamanders Attack Bike replaces the Space Marine Attack Bike entry.
The Salamanders Terminators replace the Space Marine Terminators entry.
