we had a situation in our game last night which we wasnt sure how to resolve

a demolisher was shot at a 3 man nid warrior squad but scattered so it also caught a venomthrope and only hit 2 of the warriors, the warriros are the closer of the models to the demolisher, all that shots were instant death with no armour save aloud but because of the venomthrope i could get a 5+ cover save.

which order is it resolved in, if we resolve the venomthrope first the warriors cant gain the cover save because under its rule soon as it dies everything looses the 5+ cover.

When two things happen simultaneously it is up to the player whose turn it is to decide the order
