Gotta remember too that they are re-writing the rules from the ground up. Nothing stops them from just changing old Heavy weapons and saying - this particular tank weapon is no longer "heavy".

Or customizing weapons on the specific profiles of specific units. An assault cannon might be "heavy" on a Terminator, but not on a tank.

Or have certain rules like PotMS, or specific keywords like Tank ignore it.
Leman Russes are going to be mobile again, but I will miss that large blast. That was pretty iconic.

Yeah, this is the perfect chance for those bespoke rules they spoke off. Lumbering Behemoth for a leman russ (always counts as stationary when shooting). Stuff like that.

Another Off-Topic Post has been dinged. Last straw.

This thread has gotten out of control, and is ridiculously huge. I'm going to lock it. If you all want to keep discussing it, I'd start a new thread with a summary of all known changes in the first post.
