Codex Astartes prescribes.Additionally, instead of having 10 companies, the Salamanders have only 6 companies of full Astartes in addition to a small company of about 60 Scout Marines.The order of battle of the Salamanders Chapter as of 998.M41, at the outset of the Third War for Armageddon, is as follows:1st CompanyGreat House"The Firedrakes"Veteran CompanyChapter Master Tu'Shan Regent of

events of the Dragon Strife in 975.M41, when the Salamanders defended their homeworld of Nocturne from the predations of the Heretic Astartes warband known as the Dragon Warriors, in 980.M41 the Salamanders raised a 7th Battle Company. This had previously not occurred since before the time of the Second Founding.
