Salamanders Special Rules: Eye To Eye

Salamanders Special Rules:
Eye to Eye
The Salamanders specialise in close range combat, units with eye to eye are not prevented from
assaulting after shooting rapid fire weapons. In addition if assaulted by an enemy unit when not
already engaged they may choose to take a leadership test, if passed they may shoot at the
assaulting unit before they attack with blast weapons scoring D3 hits and template weapons scoring
D6 hits instead of rolling to scatter or being placed over enemy models. Casualties from this round
of shooting count towards combat resolution. A unit that has attempted to take this leadership test
may not attack in close combat regardless of whether they pass or fail.
Walkers with this rule count as having Ld 10 for this test.
Promethean
The Salamanders follow the doctrine of the promethean cult placing high emphasis on self-reliance,
self sacrifice, loyalty and patience over haste. The symbols of the forge, the hammer and the flame
are prominent. Promethean units hold to all these tenants, and count flamers, heavy flamers,
flamestorm cannons, meltaguns and multimeltas as twin linked and any thunderhammers as master
crafted.
Superior Equipment
The Salamanders are trained from their early induction into the chapter in the ways of the forge. As
such they are able to maintain and repair their own equipment leaving the techmarines of the
chapter free to craft superior artificer arms and armour. Combined with regular trade with the
Adeptus Mechanicus and the high level of individual technical skill, the Salamanders are arguably
equipped with the best weapons and armor in the Imperium.
Superior Bolters, Close Combat Weapons Bolt Pistols, Storm Bolters and the Bolter components of
Combi Weapons may all reroll any rolls of 1 to hit. Superior armour may reroll any failed 1s on
armor saves.
Fireborn:
The Salamanders volcanic home and the many challenges they must undertake to resist the furnace
like heat of their world have made them more resilient to heat and fire, able to stand the inferno of
enemy fire where other marines might falter. Flamer weapons, heavy flamers, flamestorm cannons
(and other similar equipment) and melta weapons must all reroll successful rolls to wound models
with the Fireborn special rule and cancels out with special rules that allow rerolls such as twin
linked.
In addition, models with this special rule may reroll dangerous terrain tests from lava or magma
terrain.
Heroic Resolve:
The Salamanders player may force a reroll on the dice roll that determines whether there is an
additional game turn. They may only attempt this once per game and if the first result caused the
game to end.
Salamanders Wargear:
Tactical Multimelta/Heavy Bolter
A tactical multimelta is able to be wielded more ea silly than normal due to a combinator of the Salamander's training in
heavy gravity and/or suspensor units on the weapon itself. These weapons may be fired as normal or with the following
profiles:
Weapon Range Str. AP Type
Tactical Multimelta 12 8 1 Assault 1
Tactical Heavy Bolter 18 5 4 Assault 3
Salamander Mantle
Made from the adamantium strength hide of a Salamander, this cloak can deflect blows that would tear even a Space
Marine apart. A model with this Wargear has the Eternal Warrior special rule.
Communications Armor
This wargear is a set of power armor combining a set of sophisticated electronics warfare devices and a powerful arm
mounted machine cogitator that allows them to track enemy movements and respond to them quickly. Once per turn if
an enemy unit comes in from reserve from any method and comes within 12 of a unit with communication armor the
unit may immediately open fire upon them.
Salamander Hide
Tabbards or light coverings of Salamander hide given as honors. Grants the model a 6+invulnerable save, or a 5+when
combined with a combat shield.
Thermograph:
This weargear upgrades the optics of the wearer with superior thermal imaging equipment to that normally found in
Space Marine optics. It allows the attached unit to force the enemy to reroll any successful cover saves from their
shooting.
Disruption Beacon:
The Disruption beacon works identically to the Land Speeder Storm's J amming Beacon (Codex: Space Marines page
75) but with a range of 12
Vehicle Upgrades:
Re-enforced Ceramite
Salamanders vehicles are often plated in heavy layers of additional heat resistant armour. Melta weapons do not gain an
extra D6 to penetrate, and at over half range do not count as being AP1 when fired over half range against vehicles with
this upgrade.
Vehicles with this upgrade are limited to 9 movement when moving at cruising speed. Walkers with this upgrade may
not run. However, they count all lava or magma dangerous or difficult terrain as open ground.
Stabilised Targeting System
Many Salamanders vehicles have access to superior targeting systems and may fire all their weapons when moving at
combat speed.
Repair Equipment
With access to additional tools and mechanical training, a Salamanders vehicle crew with this upgrade may attempt to
repair an immobilised result or a single weapon destroyed result on a D6 roll of 4+instead of shooting in the shooting
phase. Vehicles with the power of the machine spirit may still fire one weapon.
Psychic Powers
Avenger, Gate of Infinity, Machine Curse AS Codex: Space Marines
Inner Fire
This power is used at the end of the movement phase. The Librarian turns the heroic spark of his
battle brothers into a roaring fire. They may ignore the most serious of wounds. The Librarian and
his attached unit have Feel no pain until the beginning of the next Salamanders movement phase.
Living Flame
This power is used at the start of the shooting phase. Guided by the Librarian's mind, the fires of the
Salamanders seek out the gaps enemy's armour. All enemy units within 18 of the Librarian must
reroll successful armor or cover saves against wounds caused by flamers, heavy flamers,
flamestorm cannons, meltsguns or multimeltas.
Inferno Wall
The Librarian summons forth a wall of fire to incinerate his foes and protect his battle brothers.
This is used at the start of the movement phase. The Librarian places a wall of fire 8 long and 1
wide with the closest point no more than 6 away, as long as it does not touch any friendly models.
Any model under the wall takes an immediate Str 5 AP4 hit and any survivors must move away
from the template. The wall persists until the beginning of the next Salamanders movement phase,
granting cover, and causing an immediate ST5 AP4 hit to any model that passes through it and
counts as dangerous terrain. No model may end it's turn in the fire.
Fury of the Salamander
This power is used in the shooting phase and counts as a shooting attack. The Librarian summons a
spectral incarnation of a giant Salamander which strikes out enemy units with claw and fang.
The Salamander travels in a straight line for 24 stopping if it hits a friendly unit or impassable
terrain. Any enemy units with a toughness value are hit by D6 ST6 AP4 hits, vehicles are hit by a
single Str 6 hit, as if struck by a monstrous creature in close combat.
Burning Judgement
This power is used in the shooting phase and can be targeting on one enemy unit within 12 or
engaged in combat with the Librarian. The enemy is covered in the flames of righteous judgement
and their wicked deeds are punished. Until the beginning of the next Salamanders shooting phase
the affected unit's weapons all count as having the 'gets hot!' special rule. In addition, any rolls to hit
of 1 in close combat also cause them a take an automatic wound.
Psykers affected by burning judgement take a wound from perils of the warp on any roll of a
double. If the leadership test passes, they may still use the power. If the test fails on a double, the
power is seared from their mind and they may not use it for the remainder of the battle.

wounds saved by this field are immediately directed back to their source, causing a wound with no
