Sure, but a Hac Tao is a much stronger platform for them than spreading the LT order out across one or two extra turns on Tai Sheng or a Mowang.
It's a meme list supposed to be nothing but hidden and camo models. He could just use the orders on the MSR/mines dude (or turn it into a hacker) and have the Hac Tao not be executive order.
It's silly and I'm not sure it's legal but I keep thinking of this fireteam (plus Daoying lt2) Invincible Army ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 6 DĀOYĪNG Lieutenant L2 Boarding Shotgun / Breaker Pistol, Knife. (0 | 21) HǍIDÀO Hacker (Killer Hacking Device) Boarding Shotgun / Breaker Pistol, Knife. (0 | 26) TAI SHENG (Chain of Command) Breaker Combi Rifle, Chain-colt + 1 TinBot B (Deflector L2) / Heavy Pistol, Knife. (0 | 49) YĀN HUǑ (FTO) 2 Missile Launchers / Pistol, Knife. (2 | 52) ZÚYŎNG (Fireteam: Duo, Tactical Awareness) HMG / 2 Breaker Pistols, Knife. (1.5 | 38) ZÚYǑNG Paramedic (MediKit) Combi Rifle / 2 Breaker Pistols, Knife. (0 | 29) 3.5 SWC | 215 Points Open in Infinity Army 3 specialists, 8 orders for the fireteam and one for the Daoying, missile launchers, breaker, HMG, boarding shotguns, hacking device with a Tinbot B. Probably too expensive to be good but amusing. Throw in some cheap remotes for bulk and orders.
As brutalising as having a TAG weapon bearing HI in a core link might be... we sadly have not achieved such heights in technologcial advancement.
Ah I see. It seemed too good to be true. I must have misunderstood what FTO allowed them to do. What were people's thoughts on the 'remotes package'? Personally I like this set Invincible Army ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 3 CHAĪYÌ Yaókòng Flash Pulse, Sniffer / Electric Pulse. (0 | 8) WÈIBĪNG Yaókòng Combi Rifle, Sniffer / Electric Pulse. (0 | 16) RUI SHI Spitfire / Electric Pulse. (1 | 20) 1 SWC | 44 Points Open in Infinity Army You get two sniffers and a Sensor, plus the Rui Shi. That should help reduce order wastage on revealing tokens. Unless there's another Sensor with a higher Wip somewhere in the army I've missed.
It lets them use their Special Haris: "Special Fireteam: Haris. 1 Zuyong (Fireteam: Haris) + 2 Yan Huo FTO" Non-FTO Yan Huo can only use the regular Yan Huo Fireteam: Duo - although you can Wildcard something in, it's probably not going to be that useful for the Duo.
My first attempt with 2 fireteams Invincible Army ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 DĀOYĪNG Lieutenant L2 (Minelayer) MULTI Sniper, Antipersonnel Mines / Breaker Pistol, Knife.

Even then, the Yan Huo profiles are mostly long ranged - none of them really want to be in closer than 12" if they can help it!
I'm mostly just experimenting at this point, but I honestly love low model count forces. Emphasize the framing device of "this is an elite force on a special op" et cetera. First time sharing lists; hoping it meets somebody's curiosity.

If you can squeeze one more point, you could grab a Warcor to sneak an extra order (if you spend the command token)...
I must say actually thinking up lists for IA is harder than I would have first suspected...

Fair cop; I hadn't thought that the Fireteam Duo option could be taken without them actually going into a Fireteam Duo.
