Summon Myrmidon as "any legal combination..." - Page 2

In ITL p.21, the Summon Myrmidon spell has a change from the old rules stating "However, if the wizard wishes, the Myrmidon can be any starting (32-point) fighter with any legal combination of regular weapons and armor".

I haven't seen discussion on this specifically, but in your opinions does this include summoning of an archerer with ST 10, DX 13, IQ 9 with essentially the Bow talent and Missile Weapons - and carries a Horse Bow, quiver of arrows, Saber, Small Shield, and daggers (skilled in those also)?

Also, in the old rules a character could carry two one handed weapons (or a weapon and shield), and on the belt six more items with two being secondary weapons (over 1 kg, ie 2.2 lbs) and four items (under 1 kg) (ref p.35 old rules). I'm seeing what I believe nerfs this on p.107 in the new core rules. A knife thrower would seem to be limited to only four knives by the new rules.
