I hope they include the Imperator as well, so we can use it "legally" for once...but then again, that means a new Imperator! YES!!!
Indeed Iain, many people are ecstatic about the list now! I wish they would release it earlier, like today!
Cheers
Chris

I don't know that the megagargants and imperators will be included. My guess is that weapon fits for the imperials and titan company rules/points will be very tough to balance as it is, without throwing in entirely new units that really push the scope of the rules systems.
Per JJ's commentary, knight households will probably be included in the AT lists, too. That's an awful lot of new units and rules hitting the table in a single wave.
On the plus side, though, the necron/AT is way out on the release schedule, so _maybe_ that would be enough time to get the massive necessary quantities of playtesting done.
Freshmetal: I suspect the changes to the IF will be almost strictly organizational and that very few if any of your units will be unusable.
Re. army lists: Most of them will be "beta" lists, and even some of the entirely new lists should be close enough out of the gate to only need tweaking (BA, DA, IF, the Eldar variants, Cadian) so I would call them "betas" even on the first draft. I suspect that the Nid splinter fleet (I believe it will be an entirely new Phase III structure) and the AT stuff will require the most testing, followed by Tau and Necrons which are still rough.

No announcement on the SG page, but the v$ Tau list is up.
Bunch of new vehicles, but the idea is to see which 2/3 are the coolest/flavourfulest/usefulest, and so on, and eventually to pare it down to just a few new units.

Just printed out my copy.Some interesting stuff, and a more flexable list 
And only a few things to moan at, looks very tempting. The down graded xv8 will cheer up my eldar opponent 
Cheers.
