Hi all,
I'm here to announce that r/Salamanders40k is partnering with the Salamanders 40k Discord server!
The server has been up a couple years, and currently stands at over 800 members. All are welcome - playing Salamanders is not a prerequisite, we just ask that you show kindness akin to our Nocturne battle-brothers.
Many members are active daily and we have a wide range of channels such as:
🌔⚒ See you on Nocturne ⚒🌔

So I laid the primer on a little too thick on my kill team captain and then dropped him, he ain’t lookin’ so hot guys. How do you guys salvage a bad primer job?
r/Salamanders40k • u/theSaltySolo • 3h ago
ATV count as mounted and vehicle.
- large movement, T6, 8W. Perfect.
- both can use Multi-Melta. Bolters will clear chaff.
- Ironstorm can let it re-roll stuff or you use Stormlance for mobility. Or double down on both.
- Vulkan can also bump its strength up or Forgeseekers can buff it too so the are S12 Meltas on fast moving body
- Ironstorm enhancement gives them 5 Invulnerable and healing. Lose one bulky ATV? It revives one after. Strats give them Lethals against Monsters and Vehicles.
I will be playing 2 units of 2 because it is funny as a fast moving punchy shooting unit that could be a action monkey

Hi all, this is my first try at painting a salamander, really happy how he ended up, wish I had the new transfer sheet so the chapter icon was orange instead but sadly.. cc welcome
Some things I know already, some mold lines are still visible ä, only saw them after I started to paint and I know the number on the right shoulder is not centered 😅
r/Salamanders40k • u/Due-Gazelle-999 • 9h ago
Overall im very happy but i dont really like the sword finish. Do you have any tips?

Last edition, Terminator Ancients could carry a Thunder Hammer and Shield, the same way the Assault Terminators could . . . So that is obviously how my WIP is built and mostly painted. In this edition, it can only take the stormbolter that it is holding, and the power weapon in the scabbard. No other options . . . Dammit! Apologies for my rant.

Worked on this for the r/Dealhammer painting contest. Thought it'd be a fun challenge and a huge first learning experience. Tried freehand on it as well and hopefully it turned out well. Thanks for checking it out!

Hey Guys, I am currently building a fun forgefather's seekers and gravis siege force list for an upcoming 36 player tournament and am unsure of how much anti-tank to use. In my current list I have two sets of three eradicators, but that is about it, so I think I could use more like a gladiator lancer or maybe a dreadnought? Anyway, I would love to hear how much everyone else uses.
r/Salamanders40k • u/Sub_par_painter • 10h ago
With a few small touch ups and the basing to go, super happy with how Vulcan has turned out
r/Salamanders40k • u/SemperFi1833 • 22h ago
Finally done painting up my Sternguard veterans, all that’s left is varnishing for this guy, these guys were a lot of fun to paint!
r/Salamanders40k • u/Due-Gazelle-999 • 1d ago
It took me a while but im done. What do you think?

Question in title. Im still working on piecing together an updated Salamanders list. Off the rip people seemed pretty hot on Eradicators and Aggressors, but Im curious what people's experiences have actually been now that the Codex has been out about two weeks. Are they notably improved, or are they still the paper tigers they were pre-codex?
My OCT and early NOV are pretty booked up, so Im not likely to get a match in any time soon. I'd love to hear about other people's experiences. Im bouncing between Forgefather’s and Assault Brethren/the Gravis detachments/Terminator Stormforce. I know recent tournaments have seen Salamander success running tons of Impulsor + Eradicators and Gladiator Valient spam, but that's just not my style.
r/Salamanders40k • u/S1000rrbrotx • 5h ago
I’ve got an impulsor either blade guard and adrax in it. Based on the 2 excerpts, my interpretation is that the impulsor can advance, disembark the BG, and the BG will not be able to charge until the end of MY TURN. Can I use the blade guard to heroic intervention in my opponents turn? I’m getting mixed answers in my research but the wording states end of turn and not end of battle round so I think I could.

Basically the title. It's my first time painting a lava themed base, as I was previously painting Grey Knights. Is there anything I could do to improve it or add more details? Some shrubbery or skulls, or maybe a bit more dry brushing with a lighter grey to make the rocks stand out a bit more? I'm quite chuffed with it so far but I'm certain it can be even better, but since I'm still rather unfamiliar with this type of base, I'm unaware of the directions I can go. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
r/Salamanders40k • u/Manbeardpigbear10 • 12h ago
Hey Brothers, need some feedback
In the final parts of this paint job and the base has me stuck. I can just dry brush some highlights on the rocks and then varnish and be done with the base but another part of me wants to keep touching up the lava streaks and maybe even mordant earth the small rock outshoots. I’m also trying to finish this model and keep moving as my first game is coming up and time is short. (I won’t be finishing everything on time . . .)
He’s supposed to be striding through the lava like the absolute unit he is with the lava flowing down.
Feedback is much welcome, included some of my army’s other units for basing reference because I want it to fit the vibe.

Hello,
So far I have mostly engaged with the lore and have played space marine 2. But I am looking to start with the hobby. I have an fdm 3d printer which will do for the beginning. Lorewise I really like the salamanders and T'au. Because I have heard a lot of people complain about the T'au I think I want to start with the salamanders. I want to print 2 small squads to play combat patrol with friends.
So tldr:
I am looking for advice on factions that are a fun match for the Salamanders in combat patrol and are suited for beginners
r/Salamanders40k • u/bundleofgrundle • 1d ago
So stoked with how these turned out, especially with using cork and dry brushing for the first time. Let me know what you think!
r/Salamanders40k • u/Scary-Alternative327 • 5h ago
I really dont like the Mark X Tacticus helmets that primaris use. Every chance i've gotten, ive used firstborn helmets (Mark 6 and 7) with bits i got from friends. The thing is, ive bled them dry of those cooler older helmets and have no idea where to get more. I dont plan on using faces for my army, and i currently have about 20+ infantry marines with that ugly primaris helmet... Where can i get more? And preferably in bulk.
