    Color of melta bombs

    Anyone know what the proper color of a melta bomb is supposed to be? I think I remember seeing them red, but I want to be sure. Fluff fluff fluff.

    Yeah. Red/Orange something to that effect - but the case can be made that different chapters use different colors and blah blah blah - there's no "wrong" way to paint them either.
    with 40k its best to get the rules straight then apply imagination and rationalize; you will only get annoyed doing it the other way round

    I got the idea to embed a 1mmx1mm magnet just above and outside of the right knee of my tac squad sergeants so I can go really WYSIWYG. I'm doing Ultramarines 2nd Company and trying to do it as close to "proper" as I can.
