About this converter

Mass Effect Codex lengths run from 160m to 44.7km. Reaper Destroyer opens at 160, Normandy SR-1 at 170, Turian Cruiser at 500, Quarian Cruiser at 643, Cerberus and Geth Cruisers at 700, Alliance Cruiser at 707, Everest Dreadnought at 888, Geth Dreadnought at 1190, Sovereign and Reaper Capital at 2000 and Citadel Open at 44700. That makes one Citadel equal over twenty two Sovereigns or over two hundred sixty Normandies. Cruisers cluster near 700, dreadnoughts near 900 to 1200, Reapers at 2000. Every value here is the Codex or model figure.

How to use it

Pick two ships and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any number and the other two update to the matching size. The bars below scale to Citadel so you can see the gap at a glance, shown in the unit you picked. Ratios are exact divisions of Codex numbers.

Two honest caveats. First, game models scale for shots, so on screen size shifts against Codex refs. Second, generic dreadnought 800 to 1000 range never pins a row, Everest 888 pins instead. Normandy SR-2 216 against 196 disputes stay out, SR-1 170 pins clean.
