They also made warlocks more random by not allowing you to take a full squad of them, then roll all their powers before choosing which ones to assign to which squads. Also, they get less powers in general. 10 warlocks now get 3 power rolls instead of 10.
To be honest, outside of the new style of detachment, not a lot of units changed much at all. Distort became D weapons, jetbikes got new weapon options, Wave serpents got nerfed, wraighknights became gargantuan and
LoW, they added a decurion style formation, and we lost the mantle of the laughing god artifact while gaining something fairly useless. The D-weapon change is a buff, no doubt, but I don't think it's nearly as big of a deal as people are making it out to be.
The fact that most changes outside of the new detachment/formations can be summed up in 2 lines is kind of depressing, actually. We paid 60 bucks for that.
