Regarding “Shield of Baal”
Shield of Baal is the first release for the campaign. There will be more. It comes in two hardback books and in a slipcase.

includes the invasion of the Cryptus System, called the shieldworlds of Baal.
the astra militarum, blood angels and even the sisters of battle are mentioned here.
book 2 is rules including, Echoes of War scenarios (6), a cities of death expansion with 6 new missions, death from the skies rules for aerial combat.

I don’t know if any other german WD readers noticed:
on page 20 of the current WD, where they talk about the various ways to benefit from the Toxicrene, some note is written in the bottom left corner (I’ll translate):
“Shield of Baal: Leviathan ist ausschließlic in englischer Sprache erhältlich, aber damit du sofort mit dem Spielen loslegen kannst, haben wir hier die Regeln auf Deutsch abgedruckt.”
“Shield of Baal: Leviathan is exclusively available in English, but for the purpose of playing immediatly we printed the rules in German here for you.”

~ After all the amazing new units the Tyranids are getting, I’m expecting great things from the Blood Angels – like a flyer named the “Bloodbat”, dropping “Bloodbombs”, and a special rule called “Bloodhaze” 🙂
