This is most excellent news! I had bought the original rules two years ago I think, but I'm an incredibly slow painter...
I then bought Operation Squad and Flying Lead which are nice, but I think this will be better.
Does the new book stand alone? I have the original rulebook, but I much prefer to learn new rules from one book

I think I'll offer myself these rules for Christmas

It's also great that it works with smaller miniatures...I have a German and a US Squad in 28mm fully painted, but I recently fell in love with 20mm - so I'll give that a try!
