The Q&A said Deathwatch will again receive digital rules, reportedly including Kill Team and Corvus Blackstar datasheets and two detachments: a three-DP full force and a one-DP Space Marines add-on. Generic Chaos Space Marines and legions including Death Guard and Thousand Sons will receive later stat changes, but no timing was given.
The publisher invited players on August 28 to email questions for a live Space Marines question-and-answer session scheduled Friday, September 4. The invitation does not contain new rules, guarantee selection of any submission or identify the topics that will be answered.
Games Workshop previewed Strength 5 basic weapons, Toughness 5 Tacticus troops, 8-inch Phobos movement and two Intercessor rifle modes for the October Codex and app update, with points rises and similar boosts planned for divergent and Heretic Astartes. Five older units become Legendary Proxies and 12 receive Legends rules; both remain casual options, while competitive use needs organizer permission.
