ok - redid ascension costs (and set new max)
per updated updates page, :

The cost of ascending is (4 to the power of (Your Ascended Level + 5) ) x 10000 naq,
and requires a minimum of 100,000 times your next level squared units.

the bonus is still a doubling of each unit effectiveness each ascended level (so 2^13 = 8,192 times as powerful. A miner at 500/turn would earn 500*8192 = 4mil per turn! not bad)

So, the UU cost is 100,000 x (next level)^2

For level 1: 100,000
For level 2: 400,000
For level 3: 900,000
For level 4: 1,600,000
etc.

EDIT TO REFLECT 50,000 INSTEAD OF 100,000 UNITS MINIMUM
The cost of ascending is (4 to the power of (Your Ascended Level + 5) ) x 10000 naq,
and requires a minimum of 100,000 times your next level squared units.

to level:...........naq cost...................min units

asc level 1:.......10,240,000.................50,000
asc level 2::.......40,960,000............... 200,000
asc level 3:.......163,840,000................450,000
asc level 4:.......655,000,000................800,000
asc level 5:.......2,621,440,000..............1,250,000
asc level 6:.......10,485,760,000............ 1,800,000
asc level 7:.......41,943,040,000............ 2,490,000
asc level 8:.......167,772,160,000...........3,200,000
asc level 9:.......671,088,640,000.......... 4,050,000
asc level 10:.......2,684,354,560,000.......5,000,000
asc level 11:.......10,737,418,240,000......6,050,000
asc level 12:.......42,949,672,960,000......7,200,000
asc level 13:.......171,798,691,840,000.....8,450,000


actually writing these out is good as i can see they are high :)
the max units last era were around 20million ... with 500,000 per day UU at the end.
so i think i need to increase UP rates or reduce the costs for UP, and it will all work out - be quite a power round :)
