So you are saying that an already wounded model gets automatically killed when damage is allocated to it from a bolter for example because there is no save against damage ?

Under your logic, he gets a second save against the second bit of damage, and will most likely survive.

No that's not what I'm saying. Autocannon is different from flail. A termi who gets hit by an autocannon and fails his save roll dies. A 1 wound who gets hit by an autocannon and fails his save roll also dies and the excess wound is lost. Autocannon doesn't have that damage spill over rule.

Yes, because damage is allocated after saves are made so in order for damage to be allocated the model must have already failed it's save.

Ok, i got it now. I agree with all of you.

No!! You can't do that, this is YMDC you have to keep arguing till the end of time. Changing your mind in the face of overwhelming evidence isn't allowed here, just look at the "Index vs Codex Datasheet" thread.
