*The [[Salamanders]] Chapter make wide use of flamers and melta weapons due to their preference for close-ranged combat.
*The Catachan regiments of the Imperial Guard are often deployed to areas of heavy jungle, where enemies can make as much use of the ever present cover as the Catachans themselves. Accordingly flamers and heavy flamers are especially valued by the Catachans for their ability to rob the enemy of the benefit of the terrain.
==Renegade Space Marine Legions and Chapters==
'''Flamers''' and '''heavy flamers''' are widely used among the Traitor Marines with the same tactical use as the Loyalists except some notable cases:
*The [[Thousand Sons]] seem to fight only with the standard bolter even in conditions where the wise use of flamers and other weapons (such as [[heavy bolter]]s) would be more effective.
*Among [[Khorne Berserker]]s chainaxes and other bloody weapons are preferred over flamers.
*The [[Noise Marine]]s often opt to use exotic weaponry (such as sonic devices), which share some of the flamer's tactical advantages.
