    Default Conversion listing?

    As a complete newbie in this vast ocean I find all the conversions wonderful, yet when my bench has an empty dry dock I haven't a clue what to convert. Wondering if our sages would mind a thread on good conversion candidates to use as a buying guide and conversion tips? Just wondering . . .Clipper slightly awash . . .

    I've done some conversions, but for the most part they're really just repaints. Outside of the small US frigates 'conversions' I've stayed away from the statistical side of the game as I lack the knowledge and expertise to go down that path. I was relying on Coog and Diamondback for that data, which you can find in this thread:

    http://www.sailsofglory.org/showthre...ates-Navy-1797

    That being said I think we have several threads going that involve ship substitutions, etc. Diamondback also has posted some awesome tables and stats you might want to take a look at? I've thrown in just a few that I recall and could research quickly. I'm sure there are many more and DB may have files uploaded here also?

    Hey Brother,

    Have you seen Jonas' work on razee?

    This would be right up your alley.
