Alright, so I know UC has had quite a few "Uhh what?" problems, and I think my girlfriend found another one.
The two abilities of Bandit straight from the PRD.
Ambush (Ex): At 4th level, a bandit becomes fully practiced in the art of ambushing. When she acts in the surprise round, she can take a move action, standard action, and swift action during the surprise round, not just a move or standard action. This ability replaces uncanny dodge.
Fearsome Strike (Ex): At 8th level, a bandit can terrify an opponent with a single hit. A number of times per day equal to her Charisma modifier (minimum 1), when a bandit confirms a critical hit and deals sneak attack damage to an opponent, she can choose to make the opponent frightened for a number of rounds equal to her Charisma modifier (minimum 1). She cannot use this ability in conjunction with a critical feat. This ability replaces uncanny dodge.
Notice that they both replace the same ability... Is this correct, or should Fearsome Strike replace Improved Uncanny Dodge? Earning the Improved Uncanny Dodge ability without even knowing the basic Uncanny Dodge just does not make sense to me.
Nothing? Really? I've searched around and I haven't found anything on this, and it's been a few days since I asked...
I haven't poked around in the FAQ or Errata but I would say you are correct and it replaces Improved Uncanny Dodge.

I thought that myself at first, but logic would dictate that it is a typo... if not yay!!! freekin awesome!!
Is that problem officially fixed ?
I need an answer for the french prd.
I never noticed that Ambush mentions you can take a move action, standard action, and swift action during a surprise round. That's kinda weird, considering you can already take swift actions in a surprise round without it.
