Simple fact besides the Salamanders weponds is Thair awesome armor and Thair devotion to never taking civilian casualties. Or so I read Salamanders FTW
Definetly two awesome chapters and I'd be happy if either one gets chosen, but maybe the Imperial Fists are a slightly better choice because of the colour of their armor (instead of the salamanders who are relatively similar to the dark Angels)?
Salamanders all day. They are true servants of mankind. Also their armor just kicks so much ass. There i finally voted sinner. Hope they pick the sallies otherwise you and your brothers have a home with the sons of Russ
I hope all the famous chapters get it. Though..... Imperial fists do offer a "Normal marine" angle without the fallen hunt or the Wardsmurf problems.
I mean, theres no reason the 5th *has* to be a first founding, maybe we can get the Excoriators or Crimson Fists instead. Dorns greatest legacy isn't the Fists, its all the kick-ass successor chapters.
Wardsmurf? And the way I look at it, Imperial Fists are a much more dour and determined version Ultramarines. Whereas Ultramarines are all too willing to retreat or make xenos allies when the Codex (or their leaders) allow it, the Imperial Fists are much less likely to. When ordered to take an objective the Imperial Fists will take it, the first time, no matter the cost. The Ultramarines will try and if they don't succeed they'll fall back and try to devise another strategy.
I'd love Salamanders to be in the game, but Imperial Fists deserve it more as being a larger First Founding Chapter with far more influence.
