Mixed BGs..How do they work??

[Blathergut]

The Mixed Battlegroups...defensive spears + longbows.

Do they shoot like other missle-armed troops? How many dice do they shoot with?
How many dice do they get on impact?

I can't find anything in the HELP about them. Am I missing it somewhere?

[deadtorius]

best of both worlds, they get to shoot like other missile troops but they count as spears etc if in melee. Not sure about the dice they get, I have had to face off against some versus the AI and it does not show what the AI gets unless you have the detailed thing on which I dont. So shooty spears basically.

Be careful with them though, they test for anarchy charges when using their bows... (try the Tewksbury scenario as york (the Kerns on the right are mixed)
