can models inside a transport be slain from dark technomancy overcharge?

Lets say you have a unit of dark technomancer wracks inside a venom and the achohyst has a hexrifle, he shoots, overcharges and gets a 1 to wound... does the embarked model die?

according to transport rule: "Embarked units cannot normally do anything or be affected in any way whilst they are embarked."

so does that mean he cannot be slain or am i trying to stretch the rules too much?

I hadn't even thought of this. We had a similar discussion a while ago over what happened if embarked units took damage from the admech reflection ability.

From what I remember, we reached the consensus of either; Nothing happens, the mortal wound vanishes into the aether. Or, from a more fluffy perspective- the vehicle takes it.

That said, I still disagree with the fluffier idea of the vehicle taking it. From a rules point of view, it would make sense for nothing to happen, and the mortal wound to simply vanish.

EDIT: Looked over the admech errata: Apparently the unit that is embarked takes the mortal wound from the invulnerable save. So, yeah, if you use dark technomancers from inside the transport, that unit can have models die.

ah shoot...! Well thx for the answer that clears it up

EDIT: SO they faqed it in Admech... wish it was in general FAQs......

Yeah, it's getting seriously obnoxious that you have to search through ~60 FAQ documents to find rules now.
