 Wait a sec.
 Yes you can have only 2 'stealers per brood, but you can have up to 10
such broods in your force. Otherwise the Mycetic Spore would not be able
to choose the 'up to 10 picks' it is allowed. It only has 7 different
broods.
 I agree though, GW needs to get their heads out of their butts and do all
of the lists in the same layout and fashion. These lists were obviously
done by seperate people and lacked any comparisons or review by people
who weren't too close to the project to see past the problem of knowing
what the rules mean so they don't really look at what they actually say.
