Now as I have said before and I will suggest it again, I am all for being able to transfer ascension resources to the main accounts for the price of NOT being able to ascend again EVER. I will gladly make myself a little more vulnerable in ascension to gain back a little power in main. It would actually let me do SOMETHING with my ascension account because currently I can do nothing with it.

Now, 1 trillion DMU converted to LF and then converted into APP would be a little over 3 million APP which converts to 18 trillion Naquadah. So I would be fine with that (even though I would LOVE to be able to convert the APP into units as well but Naquadah seems to be the only acceptable medium for everyone involved).

Here is my suggestion: 1.) in order to participate in this plan, you forgo any further ascension attempts you may have (or may gain in the future).
2.) in the Cosmic Trade Screen, you will still be able to convert DMU into LF, but there will then be another key where you can convert LF into APP to transfer back to your main account.
3.) there is an exchange rate penalty if your ascension account size is smaller than your main account. Basically, the amount of APP converted into Naquadah is multiplied by your army size in ascension/army size in main (if ascension is less than main; sorry guys, no INCREASES are available if you are smaller in main than in ascension).
4.) This Naquadah can only be used by the account that it is transferred to. It will not be a cheap way to give or get resources for non-ascended accounts or accounts that have not completed all of their ascensions. People can still attack you for the Naquadah and might even succeed in stealing it but will be unable to use it as it vaporizes into the ethereal mist.

I believe this will fuel the ascension server and the ascension process on main. People will want to ascend now to be able to eventually transfer their resources back to main. And it is available to everyone. It's just that some people who ascended well have an advantage over the quick ascenders. And it is not overbalancing, as it doesn't give an overwhelming advantage in main.


are you stupid or sometihng??

[size=12]there is no point playing ascention. IF you happen to get yourself to a resonable size, DD or OMEGA or DDE WILL RAID YOU!!! THEY WILL THREATEN YOU THERE IS NO WAY TO BENIFIT FROM THIS PLAN UNLESS YOU ARE NO1. NO1 WILL EVER BE GOOD IN ASCENTION DUE THE FACT THAT DD, DDE, OMEGA WILL *modded* YOU UP THE SECOND YOU GET TO A RESONABLE SIZE!!

HOW DO I KONW??

I RECIEVED A TOP 10 ACCOUNT, AND NOT LONGER THAN 1 WEEK DID I RECIEVE THREATS FROM HEEPS OF OMEGAS THREATING TO RAID ME. THATS WHY I QUIT

CAUSE ASCENTIION IS *modded* AND YOUR ALL IDIOTS FOR SACRAFISING MAIN STUF FOR A GAME THAT YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO SUCCED IN, JUST BENFIF THE STUPID DD, OMEGA ETC

You were advised to raise your defence. :-)

Hm, interesting. So covert doesn't protect you from sabotage? Only the assassins do so? News to me...

Sure would be nice if there was a comprehensive guide available for ascension. I've been playing it for half a year or more and I'm still learning new stuff that should have been pretty basic knowledge.

depends how good your assassin power is really, as in if you can't beat the defence you can use your assassin power to destroy the defence planets to lower their defence that way to be able to attack.

I been asking for one for awhile but Forum/Admin still thinks its "cool" to hide ascended. Pointless I think but hey not my call.

Seems backwards to me to want people to play a server and then make it as difficult as possible to make good decisions, followed by being able to be forced out of the server as well. What do I know tho?

LoL

I didn't make that up... you were actually advised to specifically raise your defence to 3 trillion, the defence on that account was not sufficient for the amount of planets waiting to be taken.
