11th edition detatchments

Idk if GW has made this clear, I can't find a clear answer cause I didn't want to combat through articles about 11th. In 9th edition, when we took different detachments, each unit you fielded had to be slotted into one or the other during list building. Therefore each unit only got the ability of one of the detatchments not both. When we are combining detatchments in 11th does it work this way? Or does the whole army have each detatchment, the caveat is that the abilities will only effect a single type of unit? Cause unless they change Warpbane to only affecting Purifiers, Warpbane will be a must take in combination with any of the other detatchments since it just hits blanket Grey Knight units. Any insight will be much appreciated!

I was just going back over stuff we know for 11th edition and I think the 8" Deep Strike change, assuming they don't change how we measure distances for weapons, will be a buff for the GMNDK since now you'd always be able to drop within the Melta range of our Sublimators. That's one of the struggles I've found with gun now that it's hard to ensure kills because it can't drop within 9" to get that sweet sweet 4 extra damage.
