Someone was inquiring about stats for 40K equipment some time ago. Attached is
an ASCII file containing conversions that I use in local games. Believe it or
not, a lot of people have a lot of 40k figures. While I refuse to buy in to
any of their new rule sets, I still like their figures for my 30mm Stargrunt
games.
I would appreciate comments, from those of you that are playing Stargrunt with
40k figures, about my conversions in the attached file.
(Lest you think that I am a cad,,, I am also building a 25mm FSE force that
will whip up on any one that comes in contact with it locally)

Any thoughts on converting Tyranids and Orks to FMA? I'm desperately trying to
get the players around here to convert, but some will definately not give up
their Bugs and Greenies.

I use the Codex Army Lists to build armies. I use this for the Warhammer
Universe flavor. Although you could trash the whole thing and just use the
figures with your own background.
I added BS+WS+Ld to give me a fiqure which I think represents the
quality of the troops in question. I then compared same to the following
scale:
0-5 Untrained
6-10 Green
11-15 Regular
16-20 Veteran
21 and up Elite
To make a command squad, I would take an average of all figures to determine
squad quality. For example:
A Space Marine Command Squad:
Space Marine Commander 7+7+10=24
2 Captains 7+7+10=24
7+7+10=24
Apothecary 5+5+9 =19
Techmarine 5+5+9 =19

I have been thinking about Tyranids today. How is this for starters:
All Tyranids move 8".
Any Tyranids within 12" of a Warrior or 18" of a Hive Tyrant need not take any
confidence or reaction tests.
Warriors are Veteran quality with D6 armour.
Termangants are Regular quality with D4 armour.
Genestealers are Veteran quality with D6 armour. Their claws count as a close
combat edged weapon.
Hive Tyrants are Elite quality with D8 armour.
