New Ork FAQ is up. (http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1490295a_Orks_Version_1_1.pdf)
Some highlights:
Q: If an Independent Character on a warbike joins
Snikrot’s unit before the game starts, can they still turn
up using the Ambush special rule? (p62)
A: Yes (lol).
Q: Can an Ork that is attacking an enemy vehicle by
using a boarding plank do so even if his unit fired at a
different target in the Shooting phase? (p93)
A: Yes.
Q: Can a Walker attack back against an Ork attacking
him from a boarding plank? (p93)
A: No.
Q: Is a deff rolla a weapon that can be destroyed by a
Weapon Destroyed result on the damage table? (p55)
A: No.
Q: Can a unit of Tankbustas choose to Run in the
Shooting phase if there is a vehicle in line of sight but
out of range of their weapons? (p42)
A: No.
Q: What cover save does kustom force field give to a
vehicle within 6" of it? (p35)
A: 4+. Note that for a squadron of vehicles only those
within 6” of the custom force filed will count as
obscured.
There are more additions - some stuff about Deffkoptas, Waaghs, and a couple of correction. A surprisingly thorough set of answers really.
New GK one too! (http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1830601a_Grey_Knights_v1_1.pdf)
Q: If a Librarian embarked on a vehicle attempts to use
Vortex of Doom and fails his psychic test, what
happens? (p25)
A: Place the template over the vehicle the Librarian is
embarked in and resolve the hit against the vehicle’s
rear armor value.

suffers an Immobilized result from the hit when the
Stormraven it is embarked in Explodes? (p37)
A: It is Destroyed as it is unable to disembark.

fire a weapon on the turn the vehicle uses Smoke
Launchers? (p36)

Q: Can a Stormraven Gunship that has moved flat out
still use its Power of the Machine Spirit to fire one gun?
(p37)
A: Yes.
Q: Is a unit that assaults, or is assaulted by, multiple
units with rad or psychotroke grenades subjected to
the effects multiple times? (p60-61)
A: No.
Q: Can a Librarian use The Summoning psychic power
on a vehicle with troops embarked upon it? (p25)
A: Yes, as long as it has the Warp Stabilisation Field
upgrade.
& more
Space Marines got two changes:
Page 97 – Wargear, Chainfist
Change to “See the Terminator entry on page 64. Note
that a chainfist on an Ironclad Dreadnought is a
Dreadnought close combat weapon that rolls 2D6 for
armour penetration.
and the Vortex of Doom one same as the GKs.
The main rulebook has some changes too (http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1830600a_40k_Rulebook_version_1_4.pdf):
Q: Are a vehicle’s wings considered to be part of its
hull? (p60)
A: Yes.
Q: Does a unit with the Scout special rule pass it on to
any vehicle it is embarked in? (p76)
A: No.
Q: Can a vehicle with the Scout special rule still Scout
or Outflank if it has a unit embarked in it that doesn’t
have the Scout special rule? (p76)
A: Yes.
There are a few other ones, but they're the most interesting. Tau (http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m1760102a_Tau_Empire_Version_1_1.pdf)might be new, but I don't really know as it's not dated.
