    My min concern is: are they faithful to the style or will lizards change into something anti-daemonic in their appearance..

    I hope for but doubt the former.

    They will definitely use new style elements but they won't release a whole new range of models.
    I bet most of the plastic boxes will be compatible.

    It would really be a shame if they drop the Slann.
    But as far as I remember there is no AoS artwork/fluff text/photo of Slann aside that one short story with Kroak. :/

    He's still in the warscrolls so I would guess that there will be a slann...

    I think they will leave everything in warscrolls so we could use old models, but they will add new things and make them present in fluff.

    Yeah, but the warscrolls are for Lizardmen. Respectively Whfb models.
    There are characters in the warscroll compendiums that were even already in the End Times dead.

    I hope for the Slann in the AoS setting. I really do not count on new models but a plastic Slann would be awesome. :)

    The Starpriest will be the Tetto'eko model I guess. Its summon spell is 'Summon Starseer'.
    I bet it's just a generic character now.

    The names in the summoning spells could be a good hint for new names for old models... There are some cases where the name of the unit is different from the name that is in the spell... I guess we will loose some of our named characters and get some nameless heroes...

    The Thunderbeast Host sounds like an army box but more like a few big beast than core units to start an army.
