To add more problems to the E40K vs WH40K conversion problems there is
nadda correlation between vehicles. The speeds and ranges in WH40K vs
the speed and ranges in E40K seem to have nothing to do with each other.
I don't think there IS a E40K point forumula, I think they just say,
"That units worth 24 points", when it is much more or (in some cases)
much less more powerful than a 23 point and 25 point unit.
