It sees that, once again, Games Workshop has decided to revise the rules for Warhammer 40,000. Don't worry! It's a good thing. There are tons of new twists and turns to playing the game that will maker players sit up and take notice. I'll spare you the details of the actual changes, but if I refer to them later, I'll explain them. The real purpose of all this is to take a look at some popular unit configurations and change them around.
