I have tried to run Combi-flamers for the Sergeants and that works fine against IG, and other High armor save armies, but against Marines they are almost useless, especially the termi-heavy armies in my game group. I was thinking I would try Combi-Gravs against those opponents but I haven't had a chance to actually try yet...my Salamanders dont feel the same without their flamers :(]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6088165.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6088165.page GMT
In the order you listed your army, I would assume that you want the libby to be your warlord, but I just wanted to make sure you know, Vulcan has to be your warlord if you want Master-crafted Melta/MM/C-Melta.

Also, to comment on Combi-Grav, I love them. Yeah, it doesn't give the Salamander feel you want, but I find them effective in killling Riptides and Terminators. 2 shots on the top/rhino rush with a re-roll gives them 2 hits reliably and wounds on 2+. I like them. If they weren't MC'd I'd look back into Flamer/Melta.

I'd look into drop pods, even at 1500, you can fit 5 easily. I'm not sure those devastator squads are going to do what you want them to. If you want anti-air, you want AA that doesn't die to the helturkies. I love my Stalkers. The more I use them, the more I like em. Even when there isn't an air/skimmers, I snapfire 8 shots at 2 different targets and hope to cause a single wound for morale checks (obviously I'm aiming at already weakened targets from the rest of my shooting).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6089001.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6089001.page GMT
Edit: I erased this post as i misread the point limit. I like stalker and dev squad with lascannons over flakk missiles. Stalker for AA and Las for Terms.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6089056.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6089056.page GMT
I never really thought about Drop Pods, back when I played in 5th edition they had just started getting popular right before I started playing, I bought the one I have just because it came with the 10 man Tac. Squad for 5 dollars more than just a Tac. Squad. Maybe with Salamanders being the kind of army they are Drop pods could be a good idea, I'll look into it.

I agree with the anti air as well, my Dev. Squad gets targeted almost immediately after my poor dreadnought (Which failed both times I tried to drop him in and melt something turn one, bad Armor Pen rolls both times ) other than that and the Drop Pods though, what do you think should be my next Purchase? What do you think my army really needs to fill it out a bit more. I really want a Land Raider again, maybe some Assault Terminators, but if you think something else would be a bit better let me know.

Oh and thank you of course, for taking the time to check this out.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6091251.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554467/6091251.page GMT
