Ok first of all, how am i supposed to ascend if i need 160k untrained units? I have no choice but to grow my untrained...
And then, i started fighting back... sooo my units were killed (slower than his, but still...), my weapons broke, which made me try to attack others for money. And then i got another glimpse of how this attack system sucks . I got 2 times that i was defeated because there was some sort of hologram, and 2 times because they did crushing damage or whatever. While i should have won all 4 attacks... So im not gonna bother attacking anymore. In fact, im not gonna bother with this game anymore.
I should say that i was at first interested with this game. Ok, the very first thing i thought was that they stole the engine from Kings of Chaos, which would make this a cheap ripoff, but when i heard about ascension i was interested. Way back when i still attacked a bit i already was annoyed with people winning a fight because of some lame hologram or other things, while i was definitely the stronger player. So i decided to not attack and ascend by turn-based income alone. And now that i got so close, 1 person puts me back so much that it would take a month or so to get back within the G&R range... Its incredibly annoying. This would be easily solved if admins would enforce the law that you can't attack someone more than 10 time a day... (which is quite reasonable imo).
I do realise this is a war game, and that if you compare it to real life, you wouldn't have such a restriction. But on the other hand, do you think an army could have time to travel between galaxys a hundred times in 1 day? Not having such a restriction can - as is shown right here - ruin the game for someone in just a day.
Well, i think i ranted enough here. Im sorry for messing up the thread, but i wanted to speak my mind, and the conversation was already started so i couldn't take it somewhere else that easily.
I will keep an eye on this thread to see if some form of support can come, but if not im quitting this game.

1. You can "store" uu as spies or miners. For examle, you could train your 160k uu into spies, then when you need them to ascend you simply untrain them.
2. Save naq in a similar way by buying weapons. If you need naq for ascending, just sell some of the weapons. Also, if you're saving naq, use your bank. Naq in your bank can't be touched!
3. Spy on everyone before attacking. If you can't see their naq or army size, don't attack. Make sure your strike is at least comfortably above their def (I usually want my attack 20% higher than their def). I know it sounds simple, but it's amazing the number of people who suicide into my def because they didn't spy first. One guy tried to mass me with a 300 mill strike, I have a 20 bill + def!
4. This is a matter of preferance, but avoid Asgards. Only asgards have holograms, so if you avoid them you avoid the holograms. Easy! I only hit asgards if they have a TON of stuff out!
You've got to play clever if you want to succeed. Be careful, and you'll do fine. Try to get a decent CO, they'll help you learn the ropes when it comes to playing! Plus, they'll help with your income!
