Working on a 3k Salamanders list. I don't have any experience playing as or against Salamanders, but it seemed like something fun I could do for TTS games. I'll attach a spreadsheet of the list
This copy of the list makes use of the Pano and Centura changes, but almost exclusively for the wargear options
edit: They should be pintle mounted Conflagration multi-meltas, not melta cannons 😂

you're missing compulsory troops
inductii are support squad
blazing veldt
Pano lets the adherents get line
woeful steeple
unfortunately
blazing veldt
but youre correct from base game
woeful steeple
line and compulsory are different
blazing veldt
no they lose support squad and gain line
"Rite of War: The Awakening Fire (Page 310)
Balance Change
Change the first Effect to read as follows:
“Salamanders Adherents Squads chosen as Troops choices in a
Detachment using this Rite of War lose the Support Squad Special Rule
and gain the Line Unit Sub-type.”

you are 100% correct, tho, if someone didn't wanna use any pano changes I'd need a 2nd Tac squad 😄
but typically most people are at least cool with just using the balance changes, if not the expanded rosters

Seems cool tho. I personally would want a librarian in Awakening Fire to use the cool power, but you seem tight on points

I'm mostly here for the Fear 1 special rule tbh, it seems really neat on Salamanders 😂
plus if you noticed my legion tag, Fear is kinda my thing 😏

Lol I’ve run it up a few times as NL. My problem is I love the brawler armies, skirmishing wasn’t as fun to me
My plan for awakening fire is give the warlord stoic defender and put him in a pyroclast squad with fear. Pinning flamer/melta.
blazing veldt
lmao I feel that. My Night Lords list is very much run the fade. I don't care much for shoot lords

I'd move fear from the praetor to the firedrakes personally, mostly incase your praetor falls early to snipers or a challenge
blazing veldt
That had been something I'd considered too, thanks!
pulsar star
I try and avoid giving it to characters unless I know they'll be hopping between units

You get a bigger bubble from a whole unit too.

oo good point
pulsar star
That too

honestly while fear is better on firedrakes, I feel like any unit that doesn't have Fearless is gonna just die anyways to the firedrakes
hammer firedrakes do a crazy amount of damage
weary prawn
I'm never a big fan of fear on the drakes. They're already super pricey, and when they win a combat it's often because they wipe the enemy unit. Plus, they can't sweep on a run.
blazing veldt
also a good point
I feel like its best use is for flamer units just so I can grab a -1 to that morale check if I do 25%
weary prawn
Them on tacticals with chainswords is cool. Try and bully an enemy unit for a sweep
weary prawn
I feel like its best use is for flamer units just so I can grab a -1 to that mor...
I always forget about this lol
blazing veldt
yea thats why I tossed it on the inductii too
weary prawn
Makes sense
blazing veldt
the 10 man tac is just there to grab somethin and hold on
