After hearing rumours about the Eldar there is one change that, while not game-breaking, really irritates me.

Howling Banshees (and Banshee Masks) prevent an opponent from firing Overwatch.

Close Combat units, especially those with poor armour saves would love to avoid a second round of fire before they get stuck into combat. The fact that Eldar get access to a unit that ignore Overwatch, while still having what is looking to be a strong Codex, just irritates me. I wanna use ma Genestealers..

YOU'LL SHOOT WITH YOUR TYRANIDS AND YOU WILL LIKE IT!/GW

I'm going to cry in the corner now.

Tbf I do love a Dakkafex for breakfast.

I'm kind of in the same boat, aspect warriors getting a bunch of upgrades (some inherent, some via formations) really annoys me too:
Banshees get longer effective charge range and avoid overwatch
Fire Dragons get +3 on the damage chart
Warp Spiders roll against initiative
Guardians overwatch at BS2

All on top of battle focus, fleet, and bladestorm. Seriously, these are changes which other armies didn't get, and Eldar suddenly get them for free? I personally think that some of the ASPECTS are undercosted now.
