@amir would be curious to hear from you as to whether you sorted this out. For those searching for this, as far as I've seen, this won't work because nested stacks don't appear to support transforms (yet) in CloudFormation.

We should create a general issue for this support."

Please give thumbs up to the CF roadmap to ask AWS to support this.
