Look Out Sir (LOSr)

Here is the scenario.

A sqd is being hit by the GK psy-power Warp Rift & failed their Deny The Witch roll. Among the models hit by the template of the Warp Rift are an IC & the unit Sergeant.

Warp Rift entry:-
The target unit must take an Initiative test for each non-vehicle model hit. For every test that is failed, one model is removed as a casualty with no saving throws allowed. Vehicles hit take a single penetrating hit.


Now, can the IC & the Sergeant who are being hit by the Warp Rift benefit from the LOSr to avoid being the casualty?

Don't think so. There's no wound to allocate

Yup.. it's the same as JoTWW, no wounds caused, no saves of any kind, no LoS.

Some of the Horus Heresy units have this "Chosen Warriors" rule that makes them all characters. I presume that this allows them to allocate wounds (even though LOSr has been gimped by the GW FAQs)?
