    In crusader fireteam I must include Janne + exactly 4 hospitallers.(as written in builder)
    Why in example it's shown that I can include Santiago? Doesn't that breaks fireteam composition?(or is it supposed to be written"+ up to 4 hospitallers"?)

    And in addition if wording of crusade fireteam in builder is correct:
    Does that mean that I can use wildcard trooper in other special fireteams the same way?(for example, wildcard Haidao instead of one YanHuo in special Zuong haris + 2 YanHuo)

    Wildcard troopers can replace anyone. The only restriction is that a Haris still needs someone with the Haris Skill and a Duo still needs someone with the Duo Skill.

    And yes, that means you can field a Zuyong with a Yan Huo FTO and a Haidao/Pangguling/Shang Ji etc.

    Really dumb question.
    Zuyongs get a HMG profile upgraded with Tactical Sense and Duo. Can another Zuyong profile use its Wildcard status to join that Duo, despite lacking the Duo skill and it already being a Zuyong link?

    Thank you. But this wording gave us another interesting question.

    We have this haris: kamau-haris, another kamau and engineer. This is valid because we attached engi to haris of kamaus.
    Now I want to replace kamau-haris with Patsy(she is a wildcard with haris skill)
    Is it valid to still have the engineer in this haris?

    If I have to make a guess, I will say yes, it is still valid.

    Yes, because one trooper has the Haris skill, all the members are Kamau (or can count as Kamau) and you meet the minimum number for a Haris.

    Patsy is not kamau and doesn't count as kamau. She is a wildcard. And that's a problem.

    Wildcards can replace anyone, in this case she's replacing a Kamau.

    Requirements for a Haris are:

    Sectorial list says you can form one (check)

    You have 2-3 eligible models (Kamau, Patsy, Machinist, Check)

    One of them has the Haris skill (check)

    That was the main problem for me. Because I didn't think that Patsy can form kamau haris for engi...sounds strange, isn't it?

    It already exists at the moment in other factions. TAK - 5x Veteran Kazaks can count as a Kazak Core or a Frontovik Core; they've just replaced all the Kazaks/Frontoviks in the link.
