When can you elect to do a conversion allowed by Holy Grail? Upon activation? or at any point during your turn?

what about if you use an enhancement during battle to activate holy grail while in battle. You still can't use holy grail to convert an evil character in battle???

To avoid abuse and auto-rescues.
Fair, but why is it errata'd that way?

Back in the day a game could have gone like this:1st Rescue: I RA, you block with lone EC, I Holy Grail him.2nd Rescue: I RA, you block with lone demon, I AotL him.3rd Rescue: I RA, you block with lone EC, I Holy Grail him.Then SoG/NJ for the win.The game would be over in three turns.
However, today's game is considerably different than what it was with all of the new cards and fort.s that stop conversion...

Then you can't use the sweet WatW combo.
