Welcome back to the Noise Marines

And what a return they make.

Page 99 – Noise Marines, Options.
Change the third bullet point to “One Noise Marine may
replace his boltgun with a blastmaster at 30 pts/model. If the
squad numbers ten or more models, an additional Noise
Marine may replace his boltgun with a blastmaster at 30
pts/model..”

I bet you we will see alot more 10 man Noise marine squads with 2 blastmasters and Icon of excess.
Or maybe the oldschool 5 man squads with a blastmaster hugging an objective.

Also:

Q: How do I determine the Arc of Sight for a Heldrake’s ranged
weapon? (p52)
A: Treat the Heldrake’s ranged weapon as a Turret Mounted
Weapon, measuring all ranges from the edge of the Heldrake’s
base nearest to the target unit.

There goes the argument of it being hull mounted straight down the drain. Not that it mattered that much but everything counts. Especially if it makes sense.
