Two new Primairs Characters are here. Salamanders and Imperial Fists look to be the next big Chapters to be getting new Space Marine models.
After days of new codex leaks out there, Warhammer Community previewed the two new Primaris characters coming to each Chapter. After seeing their datasheets earlier on, we’ve finally got a first-hand look at the official models.
Adrax Agatone
Rocking a special suit of power armor that the Intercessors wear, this Salamander is tricked out with Chapter-specific iconography showing off the pride of Nocturne.
The Salamander’s Adrax Agatone looks like he’ll be Vulkan’s right-hand man as a new Primaris named character. Bringing a special thunder hammer and flamer to the field, he’ll be a melee powerhouse as well as an aura ability that essentially turns everyone within 6″ of him into a Blood Angel.
While we haven’t seen the official rules for these guys just yet, early rumors and pictures of a “click bait” datasheet appeared on the web showing what his stats could potentially be. What do you think about this helping of Salamanders support?
Tor Garadon
Looking at the next Primaris addition to the Imperial Fists, we’ve got Tor Garadon. He’s coming to play with Aggressor armor and a shoulder-mounted grav-gun as well as what looks to be a supercharged power fist. If anyone is going to have a decent power fist it’s going to be the Imperial Fists.
With the same camera mounted on his back as the Iron Father Malkaan Feirros, he may very well be giving the 2+ BS bonus to friendly units within 3″ as well.
In fact, we saw a rumored datasheet for the character emerge over the web very recently. Check out the stats of this guy. He looks to definitely be coming with the Signum Array. But what’s extremely unique is his S x3 Powerfist that does three flat damage. (4 against vehicles and buildings).
Overall, these should definitely be getting a warm welcome into any Salamanders and Imperial Fist army in the days ahead. What do you think about these two characters? Which one do you think has better stats?
