So, upon looking at the Games Workshop website, a majority of Salamanders models and upgrade kits are out of stock? Are the Salamanders that good that everyone is buying them? And why?

I think its more of GW understocking their new releases again, a lot of the times they like to sell out rather than have anything potentially be left as overstock. I also remember that theyonly recently got more warehouse space and energy for more production, so that could be a carry on of that.

They have both a good combination of things that are clearly mistakes (like ironstone, except more op) and just generally good rules that are unlikely mistakes. Very good stratagems, relics on par with RG, ws, ultras and ok warlord traits. Good psy discipline.

Melta and flamers have also never been in any top 8 for any meaningful tourny, due to generally being ass. These new rules let's you do very powerful things with said weapons so any fan of auto hit is gunna jump on Sally's

The self sacrifice stratagem is one of the most powerful mechanics ever released into 40k; like ynnari level bs. A strictly better veterans of the long war, largely seen as chaos best stratagem. Mortals on 4+ from flame weps + auto max shots on flamers. Counter charge stratagem.
