Salamanders can't catch a break man. Can a Brother PLEASE get an open face variant??

Idk man just seems like we keep getting the short ends of the stick 😂

To preface: I love this game, I have a good 800 hours at least and I don't plan on stopping all because of this stuff lol. There's still plenty of great chapters and aesthetics to choose from - even from the Salamanders.

But look;

• We got a champion skin for a class that represents us the least (I'm sure there are Salamander Snipers in the Chapter, but let's not act like Salamander Snipers are why we love em).
• The salamanders alternative pauldron icon was forgotten about for about a week while every other chapter got their alternate pauldron added.
• Because of the champion skin being on Sniper, and because apparently the Phobos facemask can't POSSIBLY be on any other armor or altered itself, we lose out on using the champion helmet for anything.

But now there's a series of unmasked helmets coming out for 3 chapters. Why the hell is the Salamanders not included for specifically this?? Thank God Blood Angels got one at least - because they're at least somewhat distinct from your generic Astartes with the pale skin and blonde hair. But the Salamanders iconic Black Nocturne Skin was MADE FOR unmasked variants like this.

If I'm about to be blasted with "Well the charcoal black skin is just problematic" then fine I guess and I'll just stop talkin' about it after the post.

But right now, I can't believe that's the driving force behind not giving Salamanders something OBVIOUSLY unique to them. 6ish years ago I probably would've said that the black skin is problematic - but I feel like we're beyond that talk by now, right??? It just doesn't make sense to make a series of unmasked options, just to exclude the one chapter that would be the most unique and clear choice for such a thing.
