I'm sure I'll miss some, but:
If you want your HW campaign to be compatible with HQ, don't let players have wizardry or animism. And don't worry about Edges.
Magic is more expensive to improve (the average person will spend 2 HP to improve a talent, feat, or spell).
There is now Common Magic (from non-Otherworld sources). Essentially, everyone now has 5 sources of augments, which start at keyword value (17) and can be raised separately. ILH-1 talks briefly about this.
You can get an "automatic" augment of ability / 10. In many cases, it doesn't require an action.
The Extended Combat table has changed in subtle but important ways.
There will be an index, and a sample heroquest.
