The Legion, and later the Chapters it separated into, that have always been the most interesting and emotion inspiring to me has always been the Blood Angels. But while they also fight for humanity to save and protect it, the pain of the Angel's death has wounded them so deeply that they lose themselves in it at times, and innocents suffer for it. The only Legion who meets, and due to their lack of mind breaking wound surpass it by not turning on humanity, is the Salamanders. While it kinda saddens me to say it, they are the most human of all the Astartes. The IXth salutes you all, mighty armed and mighty hearted children of Vulcan.
We also need marines malevolent though dude, when they didn't push during that helsreach incident where they could've taken the big orki boi but tried to save a few humans vs saving TONS of humans.. need the spectrum
The finest of all legions, as they best understood the grand plan of the Emperor. They die so that mankind may live, they fight so that humanity knows peace and they march across the stars to enforce the Emperor's mercy.
I love that image of the astartes holding that one child in his arms and the others her hand. A massive hulking weapon of war yet so gentle when it comes to children
I feel like Salamanders keeps getting beat down by GW tabletop wise, they give us rules that make our chapter unique, just to have to it given to all other SM Chapter but better
I love how the salamanders can go *DEATH TO MY ENEMIES* as they burn all to ash and then just turn around going "wazzup fam?" To a little girl asking for her stuffed animal to be found. 😂
Vulkan aka lord lava nuget is the most wholesome, kind and compassion of all primarchs. he know he is like demigod but still cares for the small and fragile citizens of the imperium and do all in his might to protect those who cant fight for themselves.
@@Brandelwyn Nope been working behind the scenes since the beast. Emperors last orders to him since we now know he was in the throne room during the siege of Terra. RG will get a message at sometime that he isn’t alone. (My fan-fic theory until I am proven wrong lol)
What i like about the salamanders is that they are something outside the field of battle. They are smith and engineers. As much as Ultramarines are administrators and Blood angels artists. They were ready to cast away their armor After the great crusade... Such a tragedy...
By his indomitable will, unbreakable mettle, and uncompromising compassion, the Salamanders are indeed the flame which fuels willpower and forges bonds in the Imperium of Humankind. Have a great day everyone! Thanks for the vid.
The Salamanders are my favorite legion/chapter, so often overlooked for their more boastful and extreme brother chapters. The salamanders are almost ordinary, generic. Any of their history that might make them stand out amongst the adeptus astartes has been hidden away or lost to time as the legion and chapter has been almost wiped out time and time again. Despite this they bear no chip on their shoulders, hold no insecurities, they are steadfast in their commitment to the citizens of the imperium. Where other chapters see normal humans as weak, lower than them, undeserving, the Salamanders know better than anyone else, blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the galaxy. Vulkan Lives!
Im brand new to Warhammer, and I knew Salamanders would be my favorite chapter as soon as I saw one. It was the color scheme, the name, and the heavy use of fire that got me and everything I learn about them just makes me like them more.
@@DarthEvilicus OMFG SOOOOO TRUUUEEEE. Kevin Grevioux is the next best actor to play Vulcan. If you don't know who that is, he's the creator of the Underworld franchise. He also played the huge black werewolf in the movies.
love the content ,its narration is different to other 40k channels yet embodies the hole essence of the 40k would love to see a video about great emperor himself
One thing thats off is Salamanders are not 100% codex compliant. They are allowed to follow the promethean creed instead of the official imperial creed. And they only have 7 companies over a little over 100 Astartes each. One company for each settlement of Nocturne.
Kept in mind what Artellus Numeon is one of a few Astartes what not only cried, but cried really A LOT. He went a litteral Hell itself to see his Father. And yet, he didn't. He didn't see a Vulkan even in his final moment.
Sweet! Great storytelling bro. It's hard for me to find good Warhammer channels that aren't just bootleg Luetin or baldermort rip offs but you have a great style and storytelling ability that's informational, entertaining, and unique. You're my 3rd favorite channel from now on...
Too few heroes remain in the Imperium. Knowing the Salamanders remain true to their founding standards offers a sliver of hope in the grim darkness of the far future.
They are one of my favorites. They are the ones i can relate to the most in Warhammer 40k. Their warriors that protect the weakest. How they interact with people especially kids and those who cant protect themselves. Is beautiful to me. Their gentle giants especially with kids. They actually care a great deal. Every person who dies they couldn't protect it hurts them. Especially when its kids.
Second video I've watched and has me sold on Subscribing. Sultry, smooth buttery voice and just the right amount of detail that isn't repeated. Excellent delivery and narration. Incredibly cinematic. Can't wait to binge your vids!
keep watching this video over and over trying to retain all of its amazing info whilst painting my home brew s.c of the salamanders, sick work. thank you.
i was interested in the salamanders already as one of my possible space marine armies (them, space wolves, or grey knights) ...after watching this video holy crap....i think i know what my marine army is gonna be (joining my battle sisters and orks)
the apothecarion of the Salamanders also have a tradition concerning their colour scheme, an old story about an apothecary how never wash the blood of his battle brothers on his armor, for tradition sakes, the apothecary of this chapter now paint in red the left side of their helmet and armor
I think we know full well the chapter Librarians make use of a specialised Vox caster known as Psycaster that is known to interfere with Chaos entities connection to the immaterium, often to the ire of the servents of Slanesshe. So strong a force that some in the Grey Knights look to Salamander Libra-Forgers to annoint their power armour with psy-forged runes to amplify their protection against the ruinous powers.
Brothers in spaaaaaceeeeee. I am a Space Wolves fan boy, been so since 2nd Ed. Nevertheless, I've always dug these guys, big time. They've always looked awesome painted up. This is a great little intro and a great use of visuals. Vulkan, what a stud. Always thought with their concern for the little folks, they'd make for great allies. Fire and Ice, indeed.
We are the Emperor’s finest legion! Salamanders give everything for those who we are sworn to protect! An excellent covering of our Legion, Battle Brother! Huzzah!
It is not enough to simply be strong, but to use that strength to which we all aspire to help and carry those that do not have it yet. For one day that strength finds itself in all, and humanity as a whole climbs the mountain of destiny to look from the summit of compassion and deep, inner, victory.
The narration is so clean and professional sounding. Is that a New Zealand accent? Sounds just like the Star Wars Battlefront 2 501st narrations to me.
Thank you for this! Working on my very first army and heraldry and markings had me confused. I know you can paint them how you want but as a beginner, it's nice to have some guidance.
Basing my homebrew/headcannon chapter on Salamanders but cross training them with another chapter, Imperial Fists. Did originally had the idea of making them a Cursed Founding by making them a chimera chapter of a geneseed of Vulkan and Dorn. But they are guardians of the people but able to hold the line with Dorns tactics. Still thinking of a name and weapon theme... and making their mutation scaled skin so they more durable like their father with a added bit of slightly superior self healing.
Regular Gods : This is cupid . He is the symbol of our grace and love The God emperor of mankind : This is vulcan, these are the salamanders. They are symbol of love and grace. Although they look like they are from hell they are actually nice ...
I felt bad for Numeon throughout the whole DSM and when he threw himself into mount deathfire to bring Daddy V back I cried
My guy..😢
@@Azzie420 did the smeagle... nice
The Salamanders understood fully the will of the Emperor, beloved by all, and they are rare examples of actual good guys in 40k.

The Salamanders deserve so much love. I hope GW do more with them soon
yeah i feel like they are popular and unique enough to get the special treatment for their line of models
They don’t even have basic primaris flamers but black templars get an exclusive flamer unit
I feel like Salamanders keeps getting beat down by GW tabletop wise, they give us rules that make our chapter unique, just to have to it given to all other SM Chapter but better
Fury Of Magnus is a great read for salamanders fans

For The Emperor!
Let it be known that vulkan and his boyyos will forever be beacons of hope and understanding in the galaxy made of misery and strife.
What i like about the salamanders is that they are something outside the field of battle. They are smith and engineers. As much as Ultramarines are administrators and Blood angels artists. They were ready to cast away their armor After the great crusade... Such a tragedy...
These guys are what every other space marine wishes they could be
Vulkan is that one uncle that you rarely see but when you do see him, he is as cool as heck
The Salamanders always remind me of the motto, "So others may live".
I'm not an airman, but the airforce PJ motto "these things we do, that others may live" hits so deep. Salamanders are the pinnacle of this.
By his indomitable will, unbreakable mettle, and uncompromising compassion, the Salamanders are indeed the flame which fuels willpower and forges bonds in the Imperium of Humankind. Have a great day everyone! Thanks for the vid.

Hail Vulkan! Glory to the Salamanders, the Imperium's Guardian Dragons!
Salamanders are the the definition of “brother get the flamer, the heavy flamer”
Well done! You have not disappointed ever!
The truest heroes of the imperium.
THANK YOU, BROTHER YOU HAVE MADE VULKEN PROUD.
out of all the 40k loremasters, I find your tellings the most concise, informative and down right bingeworthy. keep up the good work. Salamanders4eva

If he were still alive Michael Duncan Clark would be the perfect actor to play Vulkan
@@DarthEvilicus OMFG SOOOOO TRUUUEEEE.
Kevin Grevioux is the next best actor to play Vulcan.
If you don't know who that is, he's the creator of the Underworld franchise. He also played the huge black werewolf in the movies.
The space Marine carrying a guardsman speaks volumes.
The Tempestus Galleries was the first piece of 40k lore I ever read many years ago. It was glorious.
"Through Fire and Darkness Tested!"
My favorite legion, powerfull, but compassionate.
love the content ,its narration is different to other 40k channels yet embodies the hole essence of the 40k
would love to see a video about great emperor himself
Just started up 40k again after a 15 year hiatus and the lore and everything around the Salamanders is truly heart whelming
Been trying to find my favourite Legion. Salamanders seem so cool and fun, with great lore. Should be used in-universe more
9:56 RUNNING FOR YOUR LIFE
He's brandishing a knife!
Lurking in the shadoooooooows
I've been a merely cerious member of 40k since I was knee high to a grasshopper. From old ass codex books, salamanders have always been my favorite.
One thing thats off is Salamanders are not 100% codex compliant. They are allowed to follow the promethean creed instead of the official imperial creed. And they only have 7 companies over a little over 100 Astartes each. One company for each settlement of Nocturne.
All I can picture is Vulkan hugging Dorn when they met again
Kept in mind what Artellus Numeon is one of a few Astartes what not only cried, but cried really A LOT. He went a litteral Hell itself to see his Father. And yet, he didn't. He didn't see a Vulkan even in his final moment.
This is why I play usually like to play as Salamanders. If there are any truely good Astartes in the grim darkness of the far future then they are it.
Sweet! Great storytelling bro. It's hard for me to find good Warhammer channels that aren't just bootleg Luetin or baldermort rip offs but you have a great style and storytelling ability that's informational, entertaining, and unique. You're my 3rd favorite channel from now on...

I love that the scariest-looking Astartes are the nicest around. =][=
Too few heroes remain in the Imperium. Knowing the Salamanders remain true to their founding standards offers a sliver of hope in the grim darkness of the far future.

Second video I've watched and has me sold on Subscribing.
Sultry, smooth buttery voice and just the right amount of detail that isn't repeated.
Excellent delivery and narration.
Incredibly cinematic.
Can't wait to binge your vids!
Most Adeptus Astartes have forgotten their sacred charge to protect humanity, however, the Salamanders have not.
One of my three favorite legions. The others being the Space Wolves and the Blood Angels.
As a Combat Marine Veteran, the only Space Marines I actually play as are the Sala’s. True embodiment of Semper Fi
i love this remembrancer angle more and more, its so to the point but also full of character
This video was made like an actual documentary that could be aired on the history channel, lol
Loved it
keep watching this video over and over trying to retain all of its amazing info whilst painting my home brew s.c of the salamanders, sick work. thank you.
These dudes are the embodiment of.

One of the Coolest legion/chapter of Adeptus Astartes. Just losing for the Black Templars.
4:44, “compensate for their scale” - I see what you did there.
Yo, the story of the tempestus galleries was WILD!! I WOULD PAY to see it animated, to the quality of "Astartes"
I go back and forth between my favourite astartes chapters, but salamander’s are always up there along with white scars, iron hands and imperial fists
Great video Salamanders and Grey knights are my favorite astartes !
Man the lore of the salamander is vary empowering
You have quickly become my favorite youtuber. I absolutely love the content mate.
Awesome video. I'm new in the wonderful lore of 40k, but I resonate with the Salamanders. Subbed!

Eyyyy at 5:57 that's some art I got commissioned of my Iron Warrior and a friend's salamander. cool to see it used in a lore video.

7000 Points of the XXVIII Legion in my sector. And they look amazing :) Great video.

Id recognize that mechanicus soundtrack anywhere, it slaps xD
This quality is worth a sub! fantastic content glad I stumbled upon your channel
