Not really, they need to scrap the while thing along with strategems. Because that is what I think they should do... take the game back to being about what choices a player makes are important, and not 'I built this list to abuse these 2-3 strategems'.
I believe that most people enjoy stratagems, it was really the soup generation that people did not like. It sounds like the new rules will help curb the abuse quite a bit.

Seems like a weird choice not to show us the starter set if clips of the models are going to be all over the place.

Good job anyway, GW.
Edit : Warriors seem to get a new weapon though, looks like a gauss blaster but probably not as that would be strange, so now I'm conflicted.
Also, I spy a big new thing on the left. I don't know what it is, but it looks great and I want it.
New destroyer on the bottom too. I could use some more destroyers.
Yeah so walker thing on left.
Flyer thing to right of monolith? What is that?
Silent king after that.
New warriors, new 4 leg things, destroyers. Maybe something else in the middle, and monolith perhaps?
There is also the throne like thing in the background.
The winged thing seems to be a C'tan? Maybe a customizable one?

I would like to be excited, but it's the same song over and over again. Everyhing will look awesome on paper until things hit the table and the clusterfudge of inconsistences and exploits begin.
Don't get me wrong, I really REALLY hope that I'm totally mistaken and this new edition turns great. Will stay tuned for more news.

So I saw the trailer.
Its really, really well done.
The sound assets, animation, models, direction, its great.
Necrons were well portrayed and the gauss disintegration effect was cool and pretty fluffy. It managed to convey how dangerous and scary it is without being too gory.
Spider cron, both big and little was a cool reveal and I want them.

That new Necron guy is big. Very cool. I'm getting Strogg flashbacks, which is weird.

So the 'Featured Factions' on the new website are Space Marines, Sisters of Battle and Necrons.
The armies in the new starter set, perhaps?

According to the first spoilers, horde players will not like this edition.
Can't bog down vehicles any more.
Blasts inflict additional hits on hordes.
CC helped by new terrain rules, but hordes rarely get to make use of terrain.

Well for my own horde army...
1) Orks have pretty good anti tank at least
2) Lame, but I guess extra incentive for KFF and painboy aura protection. 5++, 6+++ for all.
3) If I can legitimately hide my units behind terrain now like in ITC, this is a net win.
Although this might not help the humble boy, my Mega Nobs might love it.

And yeah, Silent King is another "Diorama" miniature. I was really worried that would become a trend... Arbitrator wrote:Trailer was worse than the old Dawn of War 1 cinematic fifteen years ago.

Last one might not be that bad if rules are made so they can use. If not yes orks and nids, at least melee ones, will not like things likely.
Depending on points. Based on faq complete point revamp on launch is possible

There’s been one thing we’ve been asked for more than anything else in the last three years (aside from the Lion riding a Thunderhawk): “Can my digital codex come bundled with my print version?” Well, Noble Hobbyist, yes. Yes it can. Whenever you buy a 9th edition codex, you’ll get the digital rules for that codex in the app for free.
One of the biggest quality of life changes with the new edition for me.
