Hi everyone! This might be a bit long, but don't worry, it wont be a bashing of either system. Rather, it will consist of a few questions that those who play both systems might help me with.
Me and my friends have played 40k for a long time, and from time to time, it's felt a bit stale. Now I'm looking at doing a kind of story-driven campaign, using fewer, more individual models. At first I looked at the Necromunda-rules, but then it hit me; everyone seem to like the Warmachine rules a lot, perhaps those could be used instead. Basically, I'm looking at playing Warmachine using a few 40k figures. But, I'm totally lost at where to begin.
As I really don't know the rules for Warmachine I'm looking for help with identifying Warmachine-figures (ruleswise) that could represent some of the following 40k-models:
Wordbearers: Perhaps something from the Protectorate of Menoth to represent their religious fanatism? Light warjacks as Terminators? A heavy warjack as a dreadnought? A lot of fire is their theme, right?
Sisters of Battle: Again, Protectorate of Menoth might be the right way to go, but suggestions are very welcome.
Dark Mechanicus: Cryx perhaps? Any other ideas?
Night Lords: I'm totally lost here. Cygnar? Khador?
Any help, tips, ideas and suggestions are more than welcome and greatly appreciated!
