Hi

its my second post learning salamanders (sorry for spam)

Im building a Forgefather + librarius list

Im copying a list from internet and the original list have terminators that i dont own. Im sharing the list.

Do you think i can skip termis and use another stuff? like pair of gladiators or something else?

Or maybe termis are so good to ignore.

Thanks

I know they were contentious when they were announced, so I'm wondering whether anyone has fielded them and what you think?

For 70 points and being only a little more expensive than Scouts I'm interested to know whether they'd be useful for the back field and then some longer range damage, but that blast rule with damage 2 seems at odds with each other as surely you'd want them shooting into Necron Warriors or Gaunts?

So I’ve been a fan of warhammer for a while and the salamanders have always been my favorite chapter. So I wanted to finally start an army.I first bought a box of heavy aggressor units and a devastator squad. My friend gifted me his failed army he barely started including a dark angels combat patrol and an inner circle task force box. I ask now on what I should do to turn this army back around towards salamanders. What can I keep and what should I get to put this train back on track?
