Are the Grotesques grotesque?

By g1ul10, in BattleLore: Command

Yesterday I tried the first Uthuk mission. Playing as the Uthuk I had the opportunity to inspect the description of the Grotesque unit and I found that their percentage to hit is reported to be only 17% (which I think stands for 1/6) instead of the 33% that I would have expected for a melee unit. Do you think it is a typo or the description correspond to reality? In the latter case, isn't it grotesque?

I'll have to check on that later. They do have the ability to make a ranged attack, which would be 17%, but their melee attacks should still be 33%.
