Surely there must have been an official GW article on this in times gone by?
(Suddenly flashing back to Imagine and WD articles to conversions between utterly incompatible systems)
I was about to suggest something simple like having a ascending comparson chart of standard monsters (i.e. normal man, orcs and skeletons, chaos warrior, boss creatures) from both systems and just fill in the differences (does that make sense), but I can see I've already turned what could be a simple formula into a bestiary BMI chart. ;) Yes, I see, algorithms are much better.
Even the relationship between Warhammer Quest (descendent of HQ and AHQ) and Warhammer seems strecthed when it comes down to Wounds - but that goes right back to the fundamentals of the differences between wargames and RPGs, I guess.
