I don't get some of this errata to be honest.
The mention of mixed weapons on page 109... doesn't exist. Is it suppose to be placed in there? Cause the mixed weapons rule in the barbarian section have a different ruling...

Ah this does depend on which book your army list comes from. For instance if you take Gauls from the Hannibal and Punic Wars book then mixed weapons get to reroll missed hits. In the Barbarian list from the rule book you get just hand weapon and javelin that's it.

The lastest WAB2.0 Errata has the rule for mixed weapons - which is the official one.
WAB2.0 versions of any rule supreceed the supplement specific.
So the new mixed weapons rule means that all units with mixed weapons now work the same way regardless of the supplement they come from.
I'm at work so I don't have access to my book(s) but I'll have them tonight
I know that Fantasy has the Supplement over-rides rulebook principal but Ancients has gone the other way. Check the wab forum for details
Cheers

I think Warrens right. It's a bit random otherwise cause they're very contradictory. In the Barbarian section of the WAB2 book mixed weapons give javs/hand weaps. In the errata, mixed weapons (which are listed on a page that doesn't include them, full stop, although they ARE in the right section of the book should they go there - the weapon section!) instead allow you to reroll to hit. I personally would love reroll to hit but I doubt my germans will get it

good news then - if the errata says you re-rollthe hit you re-roll the hit regradless of what the supplement you're using says quote from Martin (the bloke who wrote the new rules) "The mixed weapons rule from Hannibal was intended to be in the rulebook and is what is meant when mixed weapons are referred to . It will appear in the errata document coming shortly." and link to same wabforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=7766&p=80663&hilit=mixed+weapons#p80663Rejoicing all round in the German camp I suspect

So we get hand weapons, javelins and rerolls to hit?
Hmm... need to rethink how I wanna outfit my warriors then.
