LotD are also affected by the pylons. So would they in fact be Imperial demons? or perhaps warp ghosts? Any way you cut it the pylons affect all empyrium based powers and beings.

It was often speculated in the past that this was the case.

I don't see why people are upset. Like why now? I can understand if you said Cadian guardsmen but to say Imperial Guard or Astra Militarium is just wrong to get upset. IG/AM are just like cockroaches. They are everywhere. By going by IG/AM not having new kits that should be like saying anytime a story comes up there should always be something new for IG/AM because they should be based there as well.
So the only rip of is that there is no Cadian minis, not IG/AM minis because that can be said for any setting that gets new minis.
Note, please if someone is going to reply to this next question of mine please put it in spoilers.
Do we really know that Cadia blows up or is that just guess work from pictures? I thought from reading the spoilers on Dakka Cadia takes a beating but doesn't blow up. How do we know for sure it blows up?
Spoiler:
[spoiler]Mind you I only read the leaks but they never said cadia blew up just the the ad mech guy lost control of the pylons and the network blew apart with some weird indecipherable runes. However people are correct the leak images show what appears to be cadia exploding and another image of most of the main characters heading into what appears to be a webway. Escaping? Multiple characters all talk about how cadia has fallen. Imho if cadia blows up that lore will be in book 2. Which may lead us into another campaign. War of the webway would make sense if it's a real rumor

The last page lady posted on her blog had a page ending with "cadia has fallen" and shows a image of a planet blowing up.

Spoiler:
Usually I take fallen as taken over or lost control. Fallen would mean it's still there in enemy hands, not blown up and nobody has it. Then again, I guess, if Cadia blew up, that would be loosing control then.

A blown up bridge or building could still be described as fallen...
When their is a pitcher of a planet blowing up next to a character saying "Cadia has fallen" is feels cut and dry to me.
The character is even talking about how his topographical data is warping, and he can hear the earth sheering and creaking.

So, this is one of the two resculpted classic characters and some more daemons are coming, likely for Tzeentch given your current reading book. New changeling? [edit]AAArrrrh I was beaten to it!

The 'more daemons' are most likely Blue Horrors and Brimstone Horrors.

I don't think I'd call Karios a classic, since he's only been around since 2008. But popular sure
Haha. I actually checked this and he first appeared with 5th edition, the first stand alone codex daemons got - hence I call models from that era classic already xD

No, but 'two resculpted classic characters' and 'more daemons' doesn't necessarily equate to 'resculpted classic daemon characters'.

Why not both
Daemons are Chaos and Classic. And more daemons is equate to more than one, right?^^

It could definitely mean both, but we know we have Blue Horrors and Brimstone Horrors needing models released. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised when I see a release I wasn't expecting than disappointed when my bubble bursts.

Atia, I take it we wont be seeing any proper plastic sisters kits for a few months?
So Nurgle got allot during End Times, Khorne has gotten a huge kit and now Tzeentch has gotten a huge kit.
Wasn't there a rumour of a Nurgle kit not so long ago?
I'm getting quite worried for Slaanesh, last kit they got were the Hellstriders and they were pretty much "pointless".
Art from Fall of Cadia featured Slaanesh pretty heavily, wonder if they are next after Tzeentch.
Next couple of months could be huge disappointments or pretty awesome depending on what people want. I want plastic Sisters and new Slaanesh. I'd also like a good Sisters codex but I doubt we will get one.

LOL. 4th edition actually in 2008; but lets not quibble over details. It does change my idea of what you meant be classic though. I'd was thinking some of the really Rough Trader of 2nd Ed models.
