Leaving aside a forum, since its unlikely to happen yadda yadda.
What else would you like to see on the new site or more of?

Personally I'd like to see user submitted batreps following a decent formula/layout
Build blogs like tackling a Warlod Titan over a few weeks etc
Tactics tutorials
Scenery building ideas

Yee?

A place where you can send rules questions in to be answered in FAQs.

Also a suggestion box.

I get the lack of a forum - but it is weird to call it a "Community" site with absolutely no way for users/customers to interact with it.

I LOVE your batrep idea!

It's apparently going to feature things written by the community, so it will partially end up being "For the community, by the community" in a way.

Tactics & terrain-building are things I would like to see, maybe even army lists just to give people ideas or help out players starting different armies get a basis feel for how their lists for that army could work

An apology for the last 6 years or so

A lot of things these days for tutorials are available on YouTube, so I don't know how valuable that'd really be.

I would like to see staff-designed scenarios, maybe a staff-regulated campaign and product previews would be a good thing. Something to actually do with our models, rather than moan and wrangle about rules theory.

It never ends well

Yes.

Also battle reports like in the White Dwarf and some fiction one could follow.

Definitely tactics/primers. A "how to play the game" series by the staff in particular would be great for the newcomers!

some way to electrocute the writer/writers of the Ork codex by pushing a button. Not harmful levels of electricity, but enough to make them fall down at least. Make it a Pay to Play button to. I would gladly spend $10 to electrocute that moron.

Yeah, would be the most money I ever spent on GW in years

The designers have been panned as some of the worst writers of tactics (they used to have strategy/tactic "primers" in the codexes in like 4th or 5th edition; everyone I knew said to only follow the guides if you wanted to be out a hunk of money and lose every battle) and the reason why the game is in the horrible shape it is now. Though it would give insight to what they think they were designing.

Bring back the old scratchbuild/conversion tutorials. It's all well and good to show us how to paint the models as assembled exactly according to the instructions exactly the way the studio army is, but remember back when we got greenstuff-sculpting tutorials, conversion showcases, ways to move beyond simple paint-by-numbers?

My thoughts exactly, it's more like being invited to observe what a community is doing, rather than being an actual part of it.

FAQs, conversation showcase, articles by collectors who aren't staff, and a forum.
