WD came out today here in UK and there is review of the up-coming new edition of
WH40K. Apart from simplifying the game mechanics to remove +2 for this +1 for
that and trying to get to the point where as in WHFB many dice can be rolled
simultaneously major change seems to be in the Army construction. You build
armies from HQ units (must have) with various unit choices below viz Elite
units, Troops units, Fast attack units and Heavy Support units. (Is this
beginning to ring a bell with anyone?. Easy to build WH40K armies on basis of
existing E40K detachments.)

Apparently designed to fight bigger battles rather than skirmish which are seen
as the province of Necromunda and Gorkamorka.
