Conversions

Ships may also be converted to their variant classes during construction or an overhaul. If done during construction or an overhaul, a conversion costs the cost of the original ship, plus the difference in EPV. A ship may begin construction as a variant for no extra cost.

Ships may be scrapped at construction facilities for a portion of their value. A fully operational ship may be scrapped by it's builder for 40% of its value. A crippled vessel may be scrapped by its builder for 20%. Another race may scrap a salvaged or purchased vessel for 20%; 10% if it is crippled. For a ship that has dropped its warp engines but is not crippled, subtract 1EP from its base value for each Warp box lost. Dilithium may be recovered from non-crippled ships. If you would like to remove undestroyed weapons (for use, sale, research, etc.) from a ship before scrapping, talk to the GM.
