lrb VS Handbook
I know all about the missing teams... But I heard that there was a chart that was smaller in the LRB then in the handbook? Can someone explain that to me?

The only thing I know that was messed up was that the rosters for Lizardmn, Norse and Amazons weren't in the new handbook for "space" reasons, but are in the LRB.

A very serious question....

If you take the Handbook + the 2002 Annual you have all the official rules ... this is the way was meant to work and will always work going forward.

How does this differ from the LRB? For a guy like me, who gets his stuff off the internet (not exclusively, I have beaucoup BB product in the house), and someone like Pariah's friend that doesn't; what kinda discrepancies are going to arise?
Not to mention when I show at the semi-local GW store, rulings, et.al., in hand....

The Handbook+Annual should always equal the LRB.
The only time they will not will be for the period between the Rule Review release and the printing of the Annual during which the formula would be:
Handbook+Annual+Rule Review=LRB
Basically as you can see from the formula above the LRB is meant to always be the latest version.
Now my two cents .... Andy should not have updated the LRB 2.0 to include the Rules Review until they were printed in the Annual 2003. By doing this he's created a printed version vs online version difference. If he would have waited then the printed version would always match up to the LRB which is how it should be. However, I'm on pretty heavy record for loving the concept of the LRB, but having some major issues with its execution.

Ahhhhhh!
This makes sense 
Agreed, also, that the cart is in front of the horse for now....
IF you don't mind summarizin'; what are the "execution" problems that you refer to...?
If not, eh, no problem....
War is the Way of Man....
Before the Way of Man,
Was the Way of Nature;
And, before that, The Void.
And The Void was... Peace....

How to get the Most Official Rules
LRB 2.0 is the most official set of rules to date - it is more recent than the Handbook - hence more 'official' as it has included the latest round of BBRC decisions.
You would also want to get your mitts on the 2002 Rules Review(3 pages, available in MS Word format)
There are a lot of handy Q&A which are also official and clear up a lot of quiestions which have been raised here over the last 12 months from the LRB 1.3
