MotherShips
A 'live beta' version of motherships has been released. The way they work is: A mothship must be purchased. Then, it must have shield and weapon capacity added. Then, it can be outfitted with weapons and shields.
A mothship can only be damaged by another mothership. A mothership attack must get by the defending mothership shields (destroying some shields in the process). If it has any attack left, it will then target the enemy mothership weapons (destroying some of them too - weapons are easier to destroy than shields...).
If it still has attack left, it will then assist the ground troops, up to a maximum of the total ground troop attack power (or defence power if defending).
So - in effect - a mothship can double the attack or defence power of the troops on its side.
Motherships do not add to 'raw' attack or defence power or rank, but have a rank of their own, which is determined by attack plus defence power combined.

Indeed, ( :cough: I can be wrong once in a while to..)
You may be thinking of the Asgard updgrade: "oniel class M/S"
Etc. But that has no bearing on the true M/S.

No. Sorry but i will post this stats to prove it (i know its not aloved so sorry, hope im not band or something for this
).
Tauri MS
Nuclear Volley Offense Weapons 250
Maximum Volley Capacity 250
Energy Shields Generators 250
Maximum Shield Capacity 250
Offense Strength 480,000,000
Defence Strength 757,500,000
480,000,000 + 757,500,000 = 1,237,500,000
Asgard MS
Energy Volley Offense Weapons 215
Maximum Volley Capacity 215
Energy Shields Generators 220
Maximum Shield Capacity 220
Offense Strength 359,050,000
Defence Strength 855,800,000
359,050,000 + 855,800,000 = 1,214,850,000
So you see the tauri as more weapons and is stronger only by a small amount

Honours and Awards
Mothership offense and defence can't be compared on the same scale. Simple as that. If you check the tauri offense per weapon, and compare it to the Asgard, you'll see the Tauri has a higher offense rating. For defense it's the other way around. Even for the Tauri themselves, shields are more powerful than energy volley. So you can't just add offense and defense together and compare the totals. You have to compare offense and defense separately.

As soon as you build an idiot proof system, somebody else builds a better idiot.
If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

Interesting, you are correct, race bonus's DO carry to the M/S....
Learn somthing everyday.... Diety you lead me astray, you need to update your M/S section, add costs for other races than asgard.
Reps get 2,060,000 Off
And 3,240,000 for Deff.
Learn something new every day
As for comparing the totals,
What you must understand is that Def weps on the M/S are a little less than 2.3x as strong as off weps

But it isn't fair that MS power is calculated like that. My friend has almoust the same rank as i do even if i have 65 weps more than him.
