6th Edition looms ever closer

I am extremely excited about Warhammer 40k 6th Edition coming out next week.  I have not been able to work on my Storm Talon this week due to other commitments, but I have been following the 6th Ed rumors/news rather closely.  As a Dark Angels player, I am very excited about the new psychic lores. We probably stand to gain more from this change than any other army due to how terrible our psychic powers are.  Dark Angels currently only have 3 powers, Hellfire, a completely random template attack that can be awesome or horrible, Force Barrier, which is admittedly pretty awesome, the best invuln save in the game, but only usable once per turn, and Mind Worm which is a terrible power limited only to Ezekiel that is a Heavy 1 remove from play ranged attack. I'd gladly give up all 3 for 2 decent powers. Ideally, however, we'll be able to trade 1 for 1 and will have the option to keep our Force Barrier while trading in Hellfire and Mind Worm for powers that don't suck.
