About this converter
Americans in Company of Heroes 1 spend manpower on everything, and each unit has a fixed tag. The Barracks building costs 160, Engineers cost 140, MG Emplacements cost 200, Jeeps and Halftracks cost 220, HMG teams cost 240, Riflemen cost 270, Greyhounds, AT Guns and Mortars cost 280, Wolverines cost 300, Snipers cost 340, Tank Depots cost 350, Rangers cost 400, and Shermans top at 420. Fuel rides beside manpower on vehicles and buildings, from 15 on emplacements to 90 on Shermans and Depots, and sits in context. Population caps the army beside both. Every figure here is the build menu tag from the base game as copied by Company of Heroes Wiki unit pages with IGN cross checks.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Sherman against 1 Riflemen to see how many infantry squads one tank costs. The unit box flips between single manpower and thousands.
Engineer Squad reads 140 in the Wiki and IGN, not the 210 some guides guess, which the row flags. AT Gun reads 280 on the unit page against 270 on one overview, and the table uses 280. Tales of Valor and Opposing Fronts units stay out to keep one clean base game American set.
