    At the risk of essentially invalidating the sectorial's competitiveness...

    Can both these two Fireteams ve formed at the same time using all troops in each combat group?
    A) YES, the rule means it is max one per FIRETEAM
    B) NO, only one SHANG-JI can be Wildcard at a time

    I truly find the language used to describe the IA wildcards to have dual meaning, and I'm really worried since I find even the restriction in A to be draconic.

    And yes, it's ambiguously worded.

    I've always read that as 1x Shang Ji and 1x Haidao per fireteam, so you could have something like this:
