and then combining that with like a little slow-moving kind of advance of these tough tanky close-range monsters with the thunder hammers it really adds a pretty neat feel to their combat where it's instead of being too fast they're very they're stoic but they're okay with like shooting bolters and stuff and then getting in close it's not like they're just like oh bolter dishonorable throw that away and just like slow charge with a hammer or something oh no they're like i said they're a very classic marine chapter where they have their bolters they have their companies they have their their strike squads and scouts and all that but they have a preference for flame weaponry and things like hammers yeah okay um as now uh that's like the main way they do a lot of their combat and their fighting of course uh forging their own weaponry but i mentioned a few times before that the salamanders actually are some of the only marines that actually can chill with their families oh yeah yeah yeah i remember that yeah very they were in the imperium i think they're the only ones i don't i don't think i think when you become a marine you get through all the genetic stuff and you're shipped out and you're gone um but the the salamanders actually a little bit like i think a little bit like real military when they're off duty they sometimes even like live with their family whoa so you really want to be a salamander then well it goes into the concept well i don't know you uh when you hear about some of the rituals you might consider otherwise but um it really adds more to that like sacrifice for humans like it makes it really uh easier to want to save humanity and civilians when you live with your mom and dad yeah i mean you're you are with humanity all the time so you'd have a much bigger appreciation for it um not that this is on topic but who would be the best chapter to be a part of i being a space marine is actually is a great job in general it's one of the best jobs in the entire world of NUMBER_TOKENk um but it's also unless you're like a PROFANITY_TOKEN aristocrat in some fancy fancy hive city or whatever um but the the process to become one is never fun oh that's true it's it's grueling horribly painful and involves you getting chopped up by by surgeons and yeah implanted with crap right yeah extra stomachs extra hearts all that stuff that makes your blood coagulate faster and yeah yeah it's it's not a great feeling uh now i i guess the best thing that would be was some kind of hoity-toity aristocrat in some world that that would be the strongest thing for you but but if you were dead set on becoming a space marine because i mean it doesn't sound like it's a bad gig to be um a salamander like obviously you are still in it to fight and you are still in it to be honorable and like you're still protecting people but at least like you can still chill with your family and you're not just completely like brainwashed into
