It’s not so much destroyed by rampaging demons as it’s “in hundreds of pieces after Chaos crashed a space station the size of a moon into it”, but your point stands. I think it’s because Cadians are the iconic Guardsmen so they don’t want to get rid of them, so there’s a laundry list of excuses why regiments are all over the place.

There’s SUPPOSED to be more regiments coming too. Catachan are a given, but the “three others” are unknown to my knowledge. My money is on Death Korps after the Kill Team popularity, and maybe Mordian Iron Guard if it’s true they’re going to have a campaign based on attacking the Thousand Sons in the Stygian System. But who knows what goes through the erratic choices GW makes for faction focuses.

 

As for Úrsula Creed… I THINK Creed’s flag bearer (I forgot his name) mentioned Creed’s family briefly in a book that was quickly moved on from but don’t quote me on that. I do like her model though, and the Karskins, might get a box of those for Kill Team, but while I don’t hate anything in the leak/reveal it also doesn’t make me want to collect an IG army anytime soon. Now if they brought back the Desert Raiders…
