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.)

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!
Well, what else do you need? Download the mod and see for yourself what it has to offer! ;)

Last version of Emperor's Children.
Also Ultramarines and Imperial Fists brother.
And there are many more in progress (but the 3 above are near completion).
mrjuanit010 Actually,whatever time allows,really.
Can't confirm on the UM or the IF as of yet.When we have updates for then,you guys will see them.
But yeah,expect more for the EC,as me and Gambit have been some very sweets in there. ;)
i hope you and gambit will make the last versions very competitive. i thank you for
your efforts and best of luck. with the modding community this game will still run for a minimum of 5 more years.
Well,competitive are already,that I can tell.But the main aim is to make them fun.
well for me it is fun if they require skill to defeat and smooth gameplay throughout the tiers and balanced. playing them with ai or in multiplayer like the witchhunters and grey knights branch of daemonhunters and recently the harlequins. they wont be a gimick race mod where the fun ends when you have seen all the gimicks. so for rts a competitive gameplay is the best fun i will have in the long run.
So,what you are saying passively is that the Salamanders are not competitive but rather a gimmick?
I disagree.If anything,they are both challenging to defeat and they do require to be brain dead to plain as.
by the way, from what i saw from youtube the salamanders looks like pack quite a punch. by tier 1.5 you can already build a vanguard army.
sorry if your offended, but that is not what i intended to say but just stating my experience in previous versions of other race mods. my point is just rts is more fun in the long run if they are competitive and balanced. the witchhunters, grey knights and harlequins met what i wanted and having fun just playing against those races. i will not defame someone's hardwork but will make constructive criticism. again, i am sorry if i offended you.
very good mod.
Again a great mod, keep up the good work :)
...Just to say that the current Unification is not fully compatible with Salamanders 2.0. I COULD make a patch, but I am sure it will cause more issues, that solving them.
Wơw, another mod with a Primarch. Amazing. I hope it's compatible with the current unification version.
Vulkan was long overdue.
Now everything is in balance. ;)
As for Unification,it is not fully with the current version but a new version will soon come out!
The rapier was an unexpectedly awesome surprise and the aggressors are just fantastic! Once again you blew everything out of the park, well done.
We aim to please and we please indeed.
In 30 minutes actually.
Version 2.0 of the Salamanders mod is ready.
Just give it a shot, we are sure you will like the new version!
