Yeah, and Gladius has orbital drops for Space Marines as well. Which I don't think would be all that different in a TW game from the summoning abilities in Warhammer. The scope and scale of 40K has never been the focus of any of the games, since the actual scope of 40K is literally just a joke and isn't supposed to make sense.

Sure, a hypothetical TW40k was never going to be more than one planet (or maybe, depending on the new engine's map coordinate system, a system at most), but if all "deep strike abilities" end up just being The Menace Below or vanguard deploy, it'd be pretty disappointing imo.

I think it'll be disappointing no matter what, if it does actually get made. I think it will be a fun game to play that will fail to live up to the expectations people have in their heads.
