I haven't got the source book that contains them yet and I was wondering how they shape up now?

I saw in another thread that Riders of Rohan all count as having bows which means that your army can no longer contain more that 1/3 Riders of Rohan (because of the bow limit).

Is that right?

Another else that has been nerfed or buffed?

Yes, I wrote it I've double checked several times and there's no way around it as far as I can see. Hopefully, it's one of those dumb mistakes that they'll correct with an FAQ. In the meantime, for the sake of a point per Rider, I'm going to ignore the bows on models not actually firing them.

GW did come out with an FAQ to that effect, only guys actually firing bows actually had bows.

Its real dumb. They need to either make RoR buy everything like normal OR allow them to exceed the bow limit.

Especially since they do have to pick a weapon to discard if they dismount.
