A "workaround": create a dummy Story. move the Epic with its child issues. select for the Epic the new type "Story" and for the child issues select "Sub-Task", which forces you to select a Story. choose the dummy Story. execute the move operation. your Epic is a Story and its child Tasks are Sub-Tasks of the dummy.
