Extra AP on the choppa is nearly just as important as the shift to toughness 5

How many Storm shields are you seeing in competitive play these days? how many invulnerable saves that don't care about AP? The -1AP is definitely a buff, but its been pretty nicely ignored by a lot of lists as of late. It will be important to see what the points cost for these guys is.

Storm shields in power armour make for 2+/4++ save. Ap1 on these targets matter a lot. I don’t understand your point. Many units withinvul saves also have a normal save, often one point better than the invul.

Ah yes the "ignore -1 AP" is a thing. But I hope we will have some way of increasing AP choppas (even a 2 PC strat for one fight phase could be interesting) to get around that.
We probably won't

but who knows (we are filthy xenos scum after all, sadly)
