Yes, I have seen many a funny typo in the lore that is GW.

One of which kept me laughing for 9.56731 minutes.

Enjoy.
Maybe the regiment consists entirely of Ninjas who were orphaned by Dark Eldar slavers. With a score to settle, these black clad night assassins fight against their hated parent-murderers with laser shurikens and untold ferocity.

I've noticed that most rulebooks for things like Warhammer and tabletop RPGs have very poor editing. I was looking through some of my brother's White Wolf books the other day, and I was surprised by how many mistakes there were.

Some editions (maybe all not sure) of the 4th Edition BGB had the caption for the large colour display of the Witchhunter and Daemonhunter armies read that the forces would combine arms to "defend the forces of Chaos" roughly paraphrased as I don't have access.  Always thought that was a good laugh.
Rejoice.  Despair. 
Fate does not care.
Each knotted mind entwined. 
Each soul another's bind.
And blind though we are led. 
In time we do know when, to cut a thread.

Several mistakes in the Chaos Daemon Codex.
"and and" in the Juggernaught entry
Elite when it is supposed to be Fast Attack for the Karanak
Mistakes in the force list given for one of the color armies.

One I found in the new rules.  The Summary.  The Crisis Shas'ui is wrong.  That was a disappointment that they made that basic mistake.
