There are no plans to redo the Warship PDF any time soon.
No worries. I figured as from what I can tell very few people play with Warships or in the Era's that they are traditionally Important and heavily used. OR take the time to build them in game.
Two different conversion rules were printed, one in Strategic Operations (pre-4th printing, p361), and another in the Alpha Strike Companion.
The Warship PDF is using the Strategic Operations rules.
I'm pretty sure I have this as well. The Conversion rules say they are for Battleforce so I assumed that they were similar but differing scales. Since that's what the two groups of rules appeared to be. The Warship Section states "WarShips
These Elements have eight firing arcs, and calculate damage
separately for each. Additionally, a WarShip may have up to four
attacks per arc: capital weapons, sub-capital weapons, capital
missiles and standard weapons. The damage for each of these
types of weapons is added up separately for each arc to get the
base damage for that arc."
So potentially final question then. Do I have a later printing missing the Alpha Strike conversion? Or was this changed to combine some of the ARC's and I cannot find it in any of the Errata's. (Likely because I'm reading it too fast)
And thank you for your help.
