The new FAQ is out for 6th edition - one of which effects my list for the better.
Q: Do units that are transported in a vehicle that MUST start in
reserve count towards the number of units that can be placed in
Reserves? For example, must I count the units in a Drop Pod or
Valkyrie towards the 50% of units I can place in Reserves? (p124)
A: No.
Valkyries are the same as Storm Ravens, in terms of not being dedicated transports. This means that anything in the Storm Raven does not have to "balanced" by something on the board, which means I do not have to combat squad my ASM in Purge the Alien Games (but I still can for scoring games).
It also looks like the removed the "character" rule from Paladins and Nobs, unless they are the leader of a unit (so no more crazy wound allocation)
The also further clarified the rule for multi-saves, making it more clear that the wounds have to allocated when assigned, which is after the save in same save units, and before the save in different save units (pretty much how everyone was playing it anyway).
also, clarification on one of the items we were discussing as far as targetting emplaced guns on a bastion.
