Conversion question
Posted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 4:00 pm
I'm in the middle of converting my last few supplements and have come across a problem. In the 'Interregnum' supplement the Kestalnik is a hull 2 vessel with armour plating. As a result, I am unsure how to convert it. I see four options:
1) Convert as the conversion rules suggest (grouping two Kestalniks together), leaving the armour plating (so the Kestalnik woul have 3 SFO boxes)
2) As 1, but with the armour plating (4 SFO boxes)
3) As the Lohvalik's fighters are not present (as I decided to have independent fighters which are not supported), convert a single Kestalnik with armour plating (making a 2 SFO vessel, allowing the Lohvalik to have a relatively cheap unit)
4) A combination of 1/2 and 3
Which would be the 'correct' option to use to convert them? I'm tempted to go with 4 (3/2), 3, 2, 1 in that order of preference, but if either 3 or 2 are 'illegal', I'll go with the other option(s)
