The Necromunda = 40k Project?

[ThePenitentOne]

This idea started with a few edge cases:

 

- I want to use a Cargo 8 Ridge Hauler as a base of operations for highly mobile GSC

- I want to use Hermiatus the Second Son in the GSC

- I want to use the House Greim Military Attaches as Naval Officers for an IA Navy detachment

 

But honestly? Through the lens of Inquisitor 28, and 40k Imperial Agents... There are A LOT of Necromunda models just begging for 40k rules. Like those new flying Helamites NEED to be a second Vespid unit... And for that matter, they give a gang of Vespid a really good excuse to come to Necromunda too.

 

Now this is going to involve generating some rules; I've got the Index Card Template I used for the units I created in Iron Challenge. But my first question is where on B&C should I put this content? It could go in Necromunda, it could be posted as an Article, I could put any of it in my WIP thread, or I could put individual projects into the 40k Faction forum they're associated with, and anything I create will be used in my campaign, I could put it all in the Crusade Club too. 

 

SO a few questions:

 

1. Where should such a project go?

2. What are some of the Necromunda units you wish had rules for 40k?

3. Personal questions for anyone with knowledge of the Cargo 8 Ridge Hauler:

 

a) How many models can the drive unit transport, and is that the same as the Cargo Trailer?

b) If for some weird reason related to the Necromunda Vehicle rules these vehicles DON'T transport models, has the Cargo Box terrain feature ever been given a model Capacity?

I have an answer for you, sort of, but I need to post something to the community at large first. I was literally about to start composing that post when I saw this topic.

Question 3:

I know in some of the Ravener books they used Cargo 8 haulers to be transported hidden in the cargo area (4-6 members of the party but figure it would be more) and there was an incident where someone learned he could not dodge wrench or a moving cargo 8 on the freeway

 

The Munitorum Armoured Containers were never give a transport capacity as they were for more line of sight blocking terrain. I would say they are larger than a Rhino so at least 12 Primaris Marines. 

 

Question 2:

Palatine Enforcer Tauros Venator would be nice since it was a 40k FW vehicle originally.
