Embattled disk, able to take two wounds?

[Lars J 0]

Ok, below the Empire hero is embattled, as he is "sandwiched" between two Chaos disks: 

 Chaos, attack 5
 Empire hero, toughness 5, stamina 1
 Chaos, counterattack 5

What is the outcome of this? 
- Empire hero take one wound 
- Empire hero take two wound (and die)

I asked the same questions on bgg. Answer is the hero dies.

Edited due to being wrong!  Disregard my earlier post.  After a careful read of the rules I see that as soon as damage meets or exceeds toughness a wound is given. So in the example, during the first engagement resolution the disk receives a wound and the during the second it also receives a wound and then is immediately removed as a casualty.  Sorry about the earlier misinformation.

 

Rule book Page 9 right column:

 

"When a disk takes damage, place damage tokens (€) on it equal to the 

amount of damage dealt. If a disk ever has damage on it equal to or 

exceeding its toughness (∆), it takes a wound (¬) and is immediately 

removed from the battlefield and placed in its player’s casualty pile."
