Conversions??

Post by Richrd »

I read a post on this forum where someone said that, in Scen 15, they begin at once to convert some AP's or AK's to AD's, AR's, etc. How do you do this, please?

It has to be an AK with a capacity of 7000. It must be in San Francisco for the Allies...or Osaka for Japan. You go into the ship info screen and there are the conversion buttons. It can be converted to a AD, or an AE, AR, MLE, AS. I believe Japan has more limited choices tho.

Hi, Osaka for Japan San Francisco for Allies. Take a 7k AK and click on it. You are shown a list of ships it can convert to. The ship is removed from map and returns in 180 days converted to new type. For Allies only take a PG click on it. It can convert to PT boat Tender. (there is one is Seattle on Dec 7th. Move it to SF and get a PT boat tender 6 months ahead of the first actual arrival)

This is the only place the Allied player can influence production.


AK only not AP must be 7k in size.

I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!

Okay here it is...according to the manual Japan (along with the Allies) can convert a large AK to an AE, AR AS, AV, or MLE

The Allies can convert Large AK to AD. A PG or LST to AGP. Hope you know yer abbreviations.[:D]

Thanks. Osaka is the key and probably the only port I didn't try. Thanks again.
