Overwatch kills transport. Can passengers charge?

[Kilofix]

Transport moves 12”.

Transport then attempts a Charge.

Overwatch kills the Transport.

Passengers survive.

Can Passengers now Charge?

 

I can’t actually find a rule that says they can’t. Thanks for the feedback.

I've had a look through the rules and nothing says this is something you can't do. I'd be fine with it if it happened in a game I was part of.

I would rule that they can charge. Since the sequence for the charge phase is 

1. Choose unit to charge with
2. Choose targets
3. Overwatch
4. Make charge move

The unit that appeared out of the transport should now be a unit that can be chosen to charge with, even though they were not eligible at the beginning of the charge phase (since they were still in their transport).

[Cryptix]

Yes, they can charge. There is no requirement for a unit to have been on the battlefield prior to the charge phase for them to be able to charge.

Adding to the chorus: Yes, they can charge. You select charging units one at a time, and they only have to be on the table and within 12" at the time you declare the charge. You only look at the current game state, not the past or future.
