In the Majestic Emperor's Name!

Or something like that...

Anyway, what I'm getting at is mashing up two similar rulesets, so I can use the setting of one, but with the rules of the other...

In previous post, I mentioned In the Emperor's Name, a 40K skirmish ruleset, and In Her Majesty's Name, a VSF branch of the same rule-tree.
IHMN is, in my eyes, the more polished and flexible ruleset, so I'd prefer using that, as I can also use it for a lot of my other gaming interests. So porting the 40K style of ItEN to IMHN should be effortless, no? Well, ItEN is d6 based, and IHMN d10 based, so a lot of values are skewed by this.

The last couple of days I've been comparing stats (weapons and figures mainly), trying to find parallels and extrapolating the rest.

Below is what I've got so far. There are still a lot of blanks, especially in the troops segment, as I need to compare and guesstimate them one by one... To be honest, I'm currently prioritizing the troops that I have a personal interest in, and those that are easiest to translate. The rest will follow later.
I'm not certain at all if all my stats are accurate because of two simple reasons: They aren't yet tested, this is just a first draft. And, I'm not precisely fluent in IHMN (or ItEN) yet, I've yet to get some games in. I should start looking for victi..., no, oppon..., no....,erm, fellow gamers, so I can finally give it a go.
So, if you have any comments, feedback or suggestions, please let me know!

Anyway, here's the crunch:
(Update: Added the points cost where I had enough data to calculate them.)

Adapting In Her Majesty’s Name to Warhammer 40K (aka retro-converting IHMN to ItEN…)

Weapons:

Any weapons marked have a direct statline equivalent in IHMN, in my estimation.

Hand to hand weapons:

Dev notes: Proposition for assigning Pluck mods to melee weapons:

Blunt = +0, sharp = -1, large sharp = -2, Powerweapon, blunt = -2, Power Weapon, sharp = -3, Powerfist/Claw: -4

Ranged weapons: (numbers in purple are extremely speculative, potentially doubtfull!)

*: flame weapons treat all targets as unarmoured

Non-obvious equivalencies:

40K/ItEn = IHMN

Big Choppa = Halberd

Choppa = Sword/Axe (check shape of weapon on model…)

Power Fist, Servo Arm = Steamfist

Grenade Launcher = Congreve Rocket Gun

Heavy Stubber = Machine Gun

Jokaero Digital Weapons, Pulse Pistol , Shuriken Pistol = Pistol

Plasma weapon = Arc Weapon

Sniper Rifle = Hunting Rifle

Shock Maul = English All Electric Truncheon

Kroot Rifle, Lasgun = Military Rifle

Burna = Flamethrower

Dev Note: Idea for translating SV mod from ItEN to IHMN for Ranged Weapons: Pistol = ItEN +0, Basic Weapon = ItEN +1, Heavy Weapon = ItEN +2, max 5. Maybe Basic Weapon is also ItEN +2?

Translating Pluck Penalty from ItEN to IHMN: ??? Seems to be, on average, 1 higher than in ItEN?

Equivalencies:

40K/ItEN = IHMN

Guardsman = British Rifleman

IG Officer = British Captain

IG Veteran = British Sergeant

Hive Gang Boss = Tong Lieutenant

Hive Gang Veteran = Incorrigible/Outlaw

Juve = Native Bearer/Boxer

IG Ogryn = Yeti???

Equipment:

Give more thought on this, use as is from ItEN3 for now…

Talents/Abilities:

Need to check out further… Basically: Minor Talent is 5pts, major talent is 10pts…. Very Minor is 3pts.

Preliminary division:

Talent:	Minor or Major?	Dev. Notes
Analyze	Minor?
Bionics	Minor	Remember to adjust cost due to +1 Armour and FV!
Bounty Hunter	Minor
Combat Master	Major?
Daemon Lore	Minor	Maybe even Very Minor
Defensive Master	Major?
Desperate Shot	Minor
Ground Fighter	Minor?
Gun Kata	Major	= Powerboost over Gunslinger…
Hard To Kill	Minor	Is low-powered version of IHMN Immortal, so minor. Even for Pluck 3+ or lower?
Inhuman Climber	Major?
Invoke Faith	Major
Iron Discipline	Minor	Effect is potentially major, but minor due to cost of life…
Medic	Minor	= IHMN Medic, use that instead.
Nose for Trouble	Very Minor	3 points, going off IHMN’s Leadership Talent
Terror	Major	= IHMN Terrifying
Sniper		= IHMN Marksman, use this instead.
Stalwart	Minor	= Minor version of IHMN Fearless
Strange Ally	Minor
Stealth	Major	IHMN Stealthy is Minor version of this…
Untouchable	Minor	= Impervious from IHMN, ItEN3 version is Major due to bestowing on others in base to base, “Great Untouchable” is upgraded version (3” bestowing)  from ItEN, costs 15 points?

Note: Characters may also take Talents from IHMN or it’s expansion(s)

Based on current known data, a Space Marine (28) in Power Armour (36) with Bolt Pistol(?), Bolter(?), Chainsword (5) and 2 Frag Grenades (2x6) would cost:

81 points, plus the cost of Bolter and Bolt Pistol…. Expensive Dudes! (81 +9 boltpistol + 10 boltgun =100 points for a fully laden Tactical Marine!) This means it’s 3 guardsmen + an extra grenade to equal a Marine….)

A Sister of Battle(17) in Power Armour (36) , with a Flamer(11), knife(4)  and 2 Frag Grenades (2x6)would cost: 80 points.

A Guardsman (6)  in Flak (2) , with a Lasgun(9) , knife (4)  and 2 Frag Grenades (2x6) would cost: 33 points.

Oh, and to be on the safe side:
