The CTan power Times Arrow lets me target an enemy unit and roll higher than their wounds characteristic to remove a model from play. Which is great for ie AM HQs, rolling 5+ would just remove them with no save.

But what about a 4W GSC character with a 1W familiar. Does that represent a 5W model? Doesn't sound right.

Can he just remove the familiar if I succeed with the roll (first time)?

The power says "If the result exceeds the highest Wounds characteristic in the unit", thus answering your question.

So you need to roll a 5+, but the controlling player can choose to have the familiar be slain.
