Wasn't the original Judge Dredd a GW game? Maybe in a another universe but I certainly seem to remember it that way. Anyway, the flavor is certainly there, so I think the rules might work for WH40k. You would have to do a lot of converting, though unless you kept it simple and basically put your players in certain roles and then had the rest be just bad guys.
You are quite correct, the original Judge Dredd rpg was a Games Workshop production, and John Caliber has his own JD system called We are the Law! which uses his Cast Iron rules. The good part about the Mongoose game is that you have eldar, squats, ratlings, orks in the core DnD 3e books, Judge Dredd has the gear and space rules can be easily found in other games. I did a few one-off sessions with a mix, the party as rogue traders running from a Noise marine Aspiring Champion. The Warhammer Universe has a lot of rpg potential.
