Clint Eastwood, Telly Savallas and lots of gold? ;-)

well, orcs can have guns, too (not that I would play them). And take
skels for example: They just don't respond well to piercing weapons.
I'd just modify the monsters and adapt them to modern times. In my
campaign there are skeletons that take 1/4 damage from bullets, 1/2
from slashes and full damage from blunt weapon (and explosives).

All in all I'd say CRs don't represent the same in WW. You will have
to tinker somewhat. On the other hand - in WW things should be a lot
different (mood, objectives, experience) from D&D.
