Salamanders 2.0

(Fall 2019)
NOTE: Requires the LATEST FREE UI!!

Howdo,
Welcome to the Salamanders mod for Soulstorm, which adds a new race, the Salamanders chapter of the Space Marines to your game of Soulstorm.
This is the NEW version of Salamanders mod!

The Salamanders are a chapter who come from the planet Nocturne, which has very high gravity and because of this the Salamanders are bigger and stronger than other marines, albeit a bit slower to react to things. Also, they have difficulty with using aerial equipment owing to the difficulties of training in such an environment. Further, owing to the radiation then they have mutated to have black skin and burning red eyes.

Followers of the Promethean Cult they believe in self dependence, so have trained in the art of manufacture and tend to field higher numbers of custom weapons, armour and as skilled blacksmiths, they have a lot of hammers. The cult values fire and so too do the Salamanders, who favour flamer and melta weaponry.In addition,they are the most humanitarian of all Space Marines Chapters.In other words,the best bros.

This mod is not strictly codex, what with them not having one, but is our interpretation of the chapter so we know there are fluff deviations in place.(The Order of the Argent Shroud-the only Order that is best friends with the Salamanders-makes a small cameo for example.)

New 2.0 Version Description
Just go to the download section, and you will read the specifics :)
Just to state out that this is NOT a simple bug-fixes version, but a total remake(hence the Reforged). You will see TONS of new content, both visual and audio. And of course many new and reworked abilities,units and options.
So go ahead and grab it!!Like NOW!

Greetings everyone!
EDIT: First off, there were some UI issues, so please download the LATEST FREE UI!!

...After so long,the Sons of Vulkan are finally back! And in force!

The Salamanders have arrived in Soulstorm! The Salamanders are a chapter of Space Marines devoted to giant lizards, hammers and fire. Coming from a high gravity, high radiation homeworld they do not have much in the way of air support, but their marines are bigger than the other chapters and have black skin and red eyes, alongside a librarian dedicated to the Promethean Cult and is just as likely to set himself on fire as the enemy!

I had a lot of fun. Not sure if I like this one or Imperial Fists best out of the Space Marine mods. On a two team 3v3 skirmish in Karauva City, after a huge battle with 2 of the enemy factions in the quad leading to the legs to their bases, I ended up briefly encamped outside an leg leading to AI Black Templars. Somehow they completely demolished me as they came out the bridge into my encirclement even though I had an almost full compliment of squads and support. They were glowing in a purple haze, so whatever buff that is probably was what got me. I ate up their dreadnaughts but I'm not sure I killed any of their squads... which was really unique and awesome that scouts get missile launchers which makes them still worthy in late game play. I Got my predators and some others stuff safe in a retreat and then windows logged me out for an update so I couldn't save and finish, but it was a fun experience because the troops had just demolished Tau and World Eaters pretty handily so it was fun seeing a strength/weakness that still bested me. Probably would have got them if I came back with a whirlwind.

Hi im playing unification and salamanders seem....weak despite crippling the army for the reason of making them sturdier and what not they still are very very weak i got stomped by base races i feel like they need a damage buff also if i recall they were also extremely expensive so i ended up running myself dry trying to reinforce and get more out this was early/mid game to great mod just needs tweaking imo

I need some clarification about the Primaris rebirth protocol about it needing 1 soul does it really need a soul to activate?

The soul is given to you at the start of each game automatically.
It is a trick to force only one of the three paths since you can't acquire anymore.

How do you balance it?? The space marines of the new faction (salamander, blood angels, dark angels) are very weak compared to the standar UA SM, but if you make them stronger, you make them OP because that faction dont have battle servitors and gonna spam tactical marines.

As we have said countless times before,we do not intend or support playing with UA.You can launch them if you add them in the module file but at your own risk.

If you wish to combine the races while updating the vanilla,just have a look on Unification.
