i will kick off, I see the genestealers stay at 14 ppm. I think this is about right.

Has no-one got it yet?

I will go through everything for you and then format

Somebody will let me know if im not supposed to post certain things im sure and I can take em out

The main points for me:

Hive Tyrants got cheaper, lost the Preferred Enemy Bubble (it now only effects them during assault), no 2+
Warriors are the same, got access to assault grenades basically for a bit more than 10% of their base cost.
Shrikes cost the same as warriors.
Termagants got 1 pt cheaper but upgrades got 1 pt more expensive.
Horms are the same bar the +3" to their run.
Gargs lost the auto wound on 6's, they can now swap all attacks for 1 poisoned (6+) attack with blind
genestealers are the same
Lictors gain infiltrate, and so work
Zoans are pyschic brotherhood, with warp blast shooting as many times as their are zoans.
Tyrant guard get crushing claws
Hive guard loose a Bs and get 5pts more expensive with an option of single blast haywire gun
venomthropes confer shrouded
Tervigons, spawn gaunts cant assault or move, backlash is now 12"
Raveners lost rerolls to hit
red terror is a funny kind of guy, hit with 4 attacks (he has 4 base) then he can remove something in base contact from play (after invuln save)
Exocrine is as rumours stated
Biovores got a wee buff, look fun but in a crowded heavy slot (sounds familiar)
Haruspexes - I quite like them if they get in. Regens max 1 wound from assault, 1 from regen. gains attack for every wound lost, and attacks again for every wound saved. You want rerolls though cause the guys has the Ws of a gaunt. Guess you could use some of the psychic powers we got to help.
pyrovores still suck.
Fexes got cheaper
Ripper swarms got more expensive and lost the self eating rule (but then gained it again because of synapse rules). No justification for their price increase imo.
Mawlocs got cheaper, now hit once, if you cant place, hit twice and then place and then mishap if you still cant. Pretty awesome but will need FAQ for things like where to take models from when they die, exactly how to place blah blah. He does ignore the 1" rule though - just not base contact.
Trygons got cheaper but lost rerolls. Tunnel is still useless
Crones are as stated in rumours, I find them to be a bit all over the place. You can only use 2 weapons, they have long range missiles and 2 close range abilities/weapons. Bit fragile aswell when they fall (and they will fall)
Harpy is the same as the crone but with less interesting stuff lol. More focused on what its doing though, and cheaper.
Tyrannofexxes got a massive points drop, acid spray got torrent. I love this guy, totally want to use him.
Swarmlord got more expensive and lost his rerolling invulns. He gets Ap2 boneswords with ID though. Will have to mathhammer.
Old one Eye is pretty meh for a HQ i think. Hes a carnifex who can let everyone use his totally awesome Ld lol, with the rampage from last edition. He probably got cheaper but I would have to check.
Deathleaper is like a lictor, but you can only snapshot at him and he still has the minus d3 to enemy IC. He also got cheaper.

Boneswords get ID on 6's, whips increase init by 3, most other stuff is the same.
Acid blood is Str 5 Ap2 hits, adrenal glands give fleet aswell now, regen is a 4+ IWND, flesh hooks and spine banks are assault grenades.
Bio-artefacts are all useless
powers are exactly as stated in rumours.

Thanks Thraniel thats brilliant info.
