98. Devastator ready! Salamanders part 4.

So I'm back.
Not such a big gap this time eh?

I've actually done a fair whack of Sallies, it's just getting round to updating my various stuff.
I've been super busy with other things too.
If you wan to know what they are, check out my main blog!

But that isn't why you're here (or shouldn't be anyway), so on with the show?

I wrote up a list for my Salamanders, I can't remember if I mentioned it, but essentially it revolves around the Skyhammer Annihilation force formation.
Which they are conveniently releasing in a book this weekend.

Long story short Devastators, Drop pods and Assault marines, and due to the unique rules of the formation it pays to have a lot of devastators with bolters...
So out of the mass of Marines I had to build, that is where I started.

Now, I want a fair amount of drakescale cloaks and unique armour and arms in ym army.
At the same time I didn't just want to spam corsair cloaks, as awesome as they are

So more pillaging of the Fyrelayers then!

This more armoured scale cloak is actually a Magmadroth leg piece!
The front side needs some greenstuff work to make it look like an actual cloak form the front, but I think it looks pretty good considering!
Once again, thanks to a friend for the bitz!

Here is the Sergeant with his squad;

The guy with the thunder hammer will be used as the tactical squad sergeant should I even use them in that role instead.
(He's sneakily an exact copy of my Deathwatch Salamander from before Overkill was a thing)

Now, as the Skyhammer specifies two squads of Devastators...

More bolters! In this case it is captain pointy hands who is the understudy.


So yeah, you may be asking 'where are the heavy weapons?'
Well this is for a few reasons.

A ) I'm using the 'x' point heavy weapon idea...
basically my list just says 4 times 'XX point' heavy weapons.
This allows me to change it as I see fit.
This means...

 B ) I need to magnatise each heavy weapon devastator.
This is time consuming, and also means that...

C ) I need 8 of each heavy weapons that costs 'xx' points, but mainly, I need 8 Multi Meltas, as that is what I'll probably run being Salamanders.

So yeah.
8 Multi Meltas...

That's all from The Underhive for now!
Like I said, I've been busy with other stuff... if you'd like to know what check out my main blog - http://darkhazzl3.blogspot.com
