Is there one? I seem to remember there being errata on the fieldofglory.com website, but I can't track them down any more.

Anyway, Page 128 of EotD, Mongol Conquest -> Other Mongol Cavalry -> Light Horse -> Armour" is listed as "Unprotected" or "Average".

Is this supposed to be Armour: Unprotected/Protected; or Quality: Superior/Average?

Thanks

Most people don't even got the book yet, so no there is no errate for EotD just yet (actually it looks the authors are kept occupied enough by other obligations that not even the Oath errata has been completed).
The latest errata can be found here: http://www.fieldofglory.com/errata.html

As for your question, based on the other Mongol lists it seems unlikely the LH is going to have a protected option (they should have one if made Cv though). It should be possible to class them as either Average or Superior, so that's probably what is intended.

If you are collecting possible errata...how about this one.

Early Zhou army notes state total bases of dagger-axemen cannot be more than twice total of archers and vice versa. BUT in starter army there are 12 bases of dagger-axemen and 39 bases of archers.

Noticed this as I was looking to see if I could do something with my old 6th/7th edition Chou army (with massed chariots and rubbish (old style Reg D) medium infantry....and it looks possible (except for HF -> MF basing issue)

The dagger axe/archer units are equal splits, 50/50. Then there are Spearmen and Archers, then archers, then Hammy checks the lists.

The strangest I have seen is 2 minimums of 6 bases of optional troops in the Jin list, but you can only use one set of the minimums. ( the one set of troop type apears like this in other lists. Strange wording.) But an optional troops minimum?? Could be in more??

The Jin list also has a minimum of 6 Zhongxiao jun in the optional troops.

It seems like the book hasn't seen any beta testing.

In my copy the same army list of mixed protected HvWp/XB medium foot plus a few cavalry with bow/sword seems to have been reprinted underneath the historical text on every single one of the chinese lists ?

Ah, but some get lancers and others just get girls on horses. Koryo Korean, the way ahead.

But in the Koryo Korean list, you have to pay 18 points for your Nomad Nobles, even if they are only avaerage - everyone else gets superior Bw, Sw armoured cavalry for that!

If I remember correctly the Pontic army list from Rise of Rome had compulsory number of imitation legionaries, which were filed under optional troops, after a certain point; so this is isn't a new thing.

Wasn't that because they were only after a certain point in time (which you didn't have to be), unlike the Jin which are compulsory optional troops all of the time.

Even troops that are compulsary only during a set time are normally core units. I guess it's best to chalk this stuff up to wierd list writing on someones part and leave it that.

AND the Tibetan list has a compulsory fortified camp. The starter army would be worth using but the camp is specifically stated as unfortified.

I found an error in the Yi Korean lists last night. The Nomad nobles are listed as:
Cav, Av, Arm, Und, Bow, Sw for 18 points.

I would think the error is that they should be Superior and the points are correct rather than the other way around.

Khmer or Champa

Subject Cavalry has 4-6 Bases per BG, but only 0-4 Total Bases

As you well know Phil, the Starter Army lists were coming out with some errors (before EotD). Then James offered to assist with the quality and validity of the Starter Army lists...
