Okay, okay, I might consider writing this afterall. Notice the "might".
But to do so, my CPU needs a lot of data. So to say, provide as much as possible, and I may start working.

So it was predicted, as it will happen! I am sure that I saw a version somewhere, and although it was a while ago, I assumed that it was yours...
Anyway, I remember that Jervis was calling for a 'counts as' list for the Squats to translate to Imperial Guards, but this is not really what I am looking for. I am fine with counts as lists, but at some point they inevitably break down as some units dont match particularly well. I am coming to the conclusion that it would be better just putting together my own army list for my home games anyway. The chance of ever seeing an official list is pretty much non-existant anyhow.
I will start with the troops and post here when I have a thought (it could be a while  ). The important thing is the stats. First up, should every infantry base have a heavy weapon, or should there be a 'support/firefight' base with only small arms (as well as the obvious heavy and berserker bases)?_________________ https://www.cybershadow.ninja - A brief look into my twisted world, including wargames and beyond. https://www.net-armageddon.org - The official NetEA (Epic Armageddon) site and resource.

There was a version being worked on - it was on EPICentre.
It was 99% completed, just waiting on the final doc being drawn up by Dysartes. The reason it isn't public is because it is being pipped for Fanatic magazine.

Best bet is to email dysartes, webmaster of dysartes.com. As far as I am concerned we have finished our bit  .

How did you find the WEs as far as their point cost?
What were the Doomwings used as?

Nice one.
What caught my eye was intitiating a firefightht with the Deathweels.
Against Eldar.
Infantry.
Wouldn?t hosing them down with the Reapers and Battlecannon have been a smarter move? That way you wouldn?t have lost the shields and most certainly done a lot of damage to the enemy

In other responses: the Doomwings were swiftdeath fighters. I feared eldar Aircraft and was prepared to use both the helltalons and the swiftdeaths as interceptors.
The Deathwheels didn't impress this time but I blame myself for that. In hindsight, the 8 x 3+ CC attacks were not as good as the shooting alone would have been, I was caught up in the moment. Sigh, another "lesson learned". You guys need a head-banging emoticon here. I would say the Deathwheels are priced accordingly after the 4 games I've used them.
Finally, this was the return match. The first 4000 pts game ended in a tie and the Bat Rep is here:

However, we are doing a mini-tourny on August 7th in the Ottawa Battle Bunker so I'm going to be looking for revenge there. 
Cheers!
