Evil Spawn of Chaos!!! Don't even _think_ about trying to revive that

Waveserpents yes. The TL rules specifically state that Imperators and
mega-gargants are too big to be "pushed" by attacks such as wave
serpents, eldrich storms and distortion cannons. Instead they take
an automatic hit to their lower level of hit locations.

I think both doomweaver questions are covered in the Q&A on Allans
page.
