Page 7-8 spread: the Cadians shown have much more pronounced pauldrons, stubbier lasguns and smaller helmet protrusions
Page 20: very different pauldrons, helmets and lasgun design
While every other enemy they are shown fighting has a very true-to-the-models look.
Does this bode for the possibility of a re-design of the potato-faced, Spaceball-helmeted Cadians? Or simply artistic liscence?

Probably just artistic listence (without seeing the pics) but I would welcome a Cadian resculpt. And Catachan. Both to match the infinitely better command squads they released.

As long as they come with female heads and I don't have to buy another codex then I for one welcome our new insect overlords or whatever.

That looks like artistic license on the current Cadian IG, IMO.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised. |

Helmet design sucks, but the new pauldrons look a lot like the ones in the Space Marine video game.
