Triarch Stalkers improve the BS of all Necron Infantry units within 6". Does this include the models inside a Ghost Ark?

Sure. I don't see why not...

Transport rules - "If the players need to measure a range involving the embarked unit (except for its shooting), this range is measured to or from the vehicle's hull."

Shooting is measured from the Fire Points, which is why there is a little exception there. For an Open Topped Transport like the Ghost Ark, shooting is measured from any point on the hull.

If the Transport is within 6", then so is the embarked unit.

A Triarch Stalker flanked by two fully embarked Ghost Arks gives you 20 BS5 Warriors. Granted, they're still subject to making Snap Shots if the Ark moves too far, but might be nice. To be honest, it seems a little situational.

Ok thanks. It is a little situational but Stalkers are decent on their own so giving a buff is just a nice force mutliplier. I just wanted to make sure they gave the buff to embarked units. Thanks!
