I love the old critters that appeared in Rogue Trader (and sometimes after in it in Chapter Approved), so I'm translating some of them to DH ruleset. The Catachan Devil is probably the most famous of all of them, and for years the most feared.

The Catachan Devil is a creature native to the Death World Catachan, but has been introduced into several other worlds. They are scorpion-like in appearance with a series of segmented body sections and pairs of legs terminating in a long tail with a poisonous barb, which curves forward over the creature's back. As Catachan Devils grow they develop more and more mid-sections and pairs of legs. A fully grown adult can have up to thirty sets of legs, reaching up to thirty metres in length.

The front legs of older male Devils become grossly enlarged, resembling scorpion claws.

Those are the stats i set for an adult Catachan Devil, but I think after seeing the Space Marine Brother Sergeant Agamorr (PtU) that my Devil is clearly underpowered... even so, it's actually an effective killer in the PCs range of power.
