    Hello all,

    A doubt has show up with Vitapack and all. RAW they apply at 5.2 of the order, and explicitely state they cancel the Unconscious state (the example in the next page also mentions this). At the same time, the cancellation conditions for fireteams state that if the FT leader goes KO, the FT breaks, without checking at the end of the order (which is something we only do for coherence checks when an order is spent for the FT, not for anything else).

    So, if a FT leader goes down and the VitaPack activates, I think the FT is cancelled, even when the troop goes back to life at 5.2. Is this correct, or I have missed something that would allow the FT to still go on?

    Note: I assume a NÂș2 member in the FT will keep it going, and if the former leader is up and about and in ZoC of the FT leader at the end of the turn he would rejoin for free if so desired.

    That's correct based on the current wording. I'm not seeing anything that would prevent that, since Unconscious is applied during 5.1 and VitaPack doesn't apply until 5.2.
