mj12games.com/forum → Starmada → Conversion of new ships to Dreadnoughts
So. . . asked this earlier, but it might have gotten lost.
Any suggestions on converting other ships to dreadnoughts stats? I know its not Grand Fleets, but it would be nice to be as consistent as possible.
Looks like to arrive at hull value you did something like (Standard Discplacement * .7) / 100. Is that pretty accurate?
For guns, it should be possible to find some similar guns on another ship.
What about armor? Any suggestions?
(Displacement x 0.7) / 100 =
-- approximately --
Displacement / 142
So... I figure a rough estimate of
Displacement / 140
would work just fine.
You're off by a factor of 11.
Hull = Displacement / 1500
The other direct relationships are:
Engines = Knots / 4
Weapon Range = ROUND(Yards / 4500) x 3
Stuff like armor and weapon penetration/damage are a bit more subjective.

Ooops. . . meant /1000
Hull = Displacement / 1500

Engines = Knots / 4
Weapon Range = ROUND(Yards / 4500) x 3

Cool.

Yeah, I couldn't tell either.
It *could* mean "hey, that's kind of cool."
Or it could mean "big friggin' yawn."

Well, since I don't have the book, that means "Thats interesting, I can do my own ships--hey, I could do ironclad ships"
