I was looking through Bizantium when I noticed that the Iceborn Raider has the Hunting skill. This only shows up in Yin-Sloth Jungles as far as I know. Am I missing something?
(edit) also, the Iceborn Gnagawa is described as a grappling hook that is equivalent of a chain weapon. However, it provides a bonus to entangle, a move that is specifically prohibited under W.P. Chain, and has a -1 to parry, a move that neither the grappling hook nor the chain W.P.'s are allowed to do.

Re: The Hunting Skill and eratta from Bizantium
The Hunting skill comes from Yin Sloth 1st edition which was technically converted to 2nd edition
thanks to Rifter #24 (cannon). The best we can do until an actual Yin sloth 2nd edition. The
Gnagawa is similar to a Kusari-Gama, which one end can be used to entangle white the other is
still available for striking (requiring the W.P. Chain skill to use effectively). It is also used as a
climbing device. So you could use the skill Grappling Hook (which means it can't be used as
parrying weapon) and entangle opponents, or you use it as a chain weapon and parry opponents
with the hook/blades (W.P. Chain). Weapon bridges the gap and is the best of both worlds. One
weapon that you can use two W.P. separate skills with.
