Rules interpretation question about the luminark

[Bozly]

Ok so this is something i thought of that could be a shennanigans play but i want to see if anyone knows a judge response to this or if im outright wrong

 

So im using the luminark and generic order battle line for this example. So if you havent read it the luminark gives a 6 up ward save to all MODELS within 10" of it.

 

So lets say my battle line is in a congo line and they are coating 40 inches of the board. stretched out. The far right 10" side is receiving the luminark buff. the far left side is dealt damage. Now from the rules you can allocate the wound to any model in the unit.

 

So can I take a damage on the left side allocate the wound to the right side inside the luminark buff and take the save?

I feel like no but I'm not exactly an expert.

If it's all one unit, then yes, you are welcome to choose which model you allocate the wound to. It's 100% legitimate.

[Kramer]

True, but you will have to roll one after the other. Because after a certain amount of deaths they would be outside the aura right? 

[ParachuteHopper]

Just count how many models are within the aura; that's how many ward saves you get.

[BaldoBeardo]

Just to be absolutely clear;

You allocate wounds one at a time.

You can also block roll, as long as the number of dice you roll doesn't exceed the current number of models within range of the luminark. Remove casualties, and repeat until all wounds have been allocated or you run out of models within range.
