Oh? I did a search but couldn't see this topic broached before.
Well to be fair it generally gets brought up inside another thread so no worries

Actually AFAIK, no, no one actually has. This is largely due to the nature of EA lists would require so many different ones for every permutation of formation (let alone the completely disparate upgrade/support options in each list) that it as a methodology would fall over. You have to remember EA, unlike 2nd edition, doesn't have a faction based list system therefore there's no "marine list" to build from. For instance: Space Wolves, Codex (aka Ultramarines), and Hawk Lords have such radically differing list structure from each other as to be nothing alike (other than Astartes).
Thats a fair point for those specialised forces, but I would have thought that Astartes, IG etc which are relatively straightforward might have been done. No matter.
But that's kinda my point. There's nothing 'straight forward" for any of them. For instance a Leman Russ tank company in SL has 10 Leman Russ tanks with free option for a Vanguisher upgrade. Tank Legion has 10 Leman Russ Tanks of any common type; 2 may be upgraded to "rare" (where "common" and "rare" are uniquely defined to that list).
Or a Guard Infantry company (that's as vanilla as they come
). SL gets 12 stands + 1 Commander. Barran gets 1 commander and 9 stands.
Don't even get me started with DKoK or Cadians

Cool! Be sure to show them off! Don't take what I said above as discouraging you to do it. It's just that it's only reasonable for fans, generally those that play the list in question, to probably produce them for limited personal use (I mean, do you REALLLLLLY want to be trolling the SL list for changes?
)
cheers!
