My impressions in short: trailer is not what we are used to see for 40k trailers. More symbolical, I'd say. Good to see for a change. Screenshots don't look promising, at least yet.

Tbh I find painter in the first game to be better simply because it allowed you to use any colour for anything. I was annoyed quite a bit at inability to pick
just right tone for what I wanted to do.

Tbh recent Necron Lord release reminded that whoever balances DoW games initially does it the same way GW does ("Have you bought our previous stock of obviously best units? Now we have a new stock of obviously better units for you to buy!" Well, GW are also fans of "Oh, and here are new general rules with even more RNG so that bad rolls could create an illusion of balance. If those rules are readable and don't contradict each other at every opportunity, that's it.", but at least this is less relevant when it comes to vidiya).
