Subject: re; [SG2} Converting W40k players
> [quoted text omitted] Greetings, folks! Does anyone have a reasonably comprehensive unit conversion list for WH40K to SG2 stats? I am *not* a WH player, but almost everyone that I play Clan War and Heavy Gear with is, so I figured I could get more local players interested in SG2 if I could leverage their existing miniatures into the game. I've been wanting to pick up SG2 myself, as the Full Thrust scene around here is rather quiet lately. <<< I am (It the only way I can fight minitures in Sydney). Owen Glover and I discussed this at Cancon. The problem is that W40K is that players expect an equal fight due to the point system, while in SGII this is almost impossable unless both sides use exactly the same army. It is possable to use the 40k point values and use the SGII system, and is possably the way to ween them towards The morale system in SGII is far supieor to W40K, and I would advise it to be used in place of the W40k rules. Color chits: Ld <= 5: Green Ld <= 7: Regular Ld <= 8: Veteren Ld >= 9: Elite Leadership Number: Random or set by the morale. Confidence Level: Set on the Scenerio or Imperial Guard and Dark Eldar: Steady (With Elites Confident) All Others: Confident Darryl
