My group played a lot of different systems back in the day, Vor, Warzone, Chronopia, etc. In our opinions, they all had killer rules and we played some of our most fun games with them. I was just thinking that with a little points and weapon effects jiggling, 40K armies would work well in those systems.
Any old timers here ever give it a go?

Just twice.

Converted stuff across to Stargrunt II and also to Tomorrow's War.

Space marines play like space marines are supposed to that way.

Both are a "feels right" rather than a x/3+y/6xnumber of hours in a long weekend/tuesdays in a month sort of thing, though.

I've been playing various games for the last 28 or so years, though and a "close enough" works for me.

I love messing about with rules systems and porting stuff over - vaguely working up rules at the moment for 40k stuff in Judge Dredd....

Ah, yes. The 2000 AD roots for 40k.
