Possibly, but as you said, the to-hit roll for Epic takes more than just BS into account. The experience of the troops(BS), the quality of the hardware (IE, Sniper weapons hit more often, Shotguns less),BS again the rate of fire,got that and so on. Thus while having something like that as a guideline would not hurt, each specific model must be considered on it's own merits.
In other words, good start, but needs more detail.
I am taking into account the number of shots example can it kill 5 guys ( a Stand )in one or 2 rounds of firing?
, bs , and strength of the weapons.
In order to fit those on a d6 you need to combine stats like orcs bs2 and imps bs3 to hit on 5+
Lets take a volcano cannon: currently it hits on a 3+ save -4 . The shadowsword has a BS of 3 if you shoot a tank they have -4 save .
The save modifier already takes into account the str of the weapon so why would it hit the target better than a Leman Russ BS3 firing it's battle cannon?
Changed it to make it cleaner
BS 2&3 Imperial guard,orks,guardians etc Hit on 5-6 no change.
BS 4&5 Eldar aspects.spacemarines, etc Hit on 4-5-6
Named Commanders add +1 to hit
