A whole host of new units, including Space Marine Warhammer 40K reinforcements and a new addition to the upcoming Old World game, have just been unveiled at the Nova Open event in Washington DC.
Even though the event is a bit smaller than the likes of Adepticon, there were plenty of announcements to kick off the Nova Open for everything from Warhammer 40K to the company's board games for 2 players (indeed, the only long-running title that didn't get a spotlight was the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game).

I've listed the best bits here. Unfortunately, we don't have a price or release date for any of these - but it'll presumably be sometime in the Fall, if Warhammer's usual release cycle is anything to go by. Based on previous launches, they'll probably set you back roughly $60 / £40 each, too.
