I've recieved a few messages in game about this too.

Ok, I know about the racial % bonuses (although a couple people seem to think that the Replicator bonus doesnt work at all... can anyone confirm this??), and I also know about the tech bonuses, I was just wondering if theres anything else I didnt know about.

Heres how I broke it down.

Asgard -
25% defence bonus
Holographic planet tech
Can apparently sell defence weapons at no loss.
Also has cheaper defence weapons?

Goa'uld -
20% income bonus
Can 'steal' 10% of enemy losses in battle.
No banking charge.

Tauri -
30% attack bonus
Sneak attack bonus (no losses)
Cheaper attack weapons?
Maybe Tauri can sell attack weapons at no loss too? (like asgard)

Replicator -
35% covert bonus (which possibly doesnt exist)
Can regenerate 10% of battle losses.



Seems Replicators got the short straw, or do they have another bonus I dont know about. I did notice they can sell defence weapons at only a 10% loss, but for all I know, every race can do that, except Asgard.

Im pretty certain that the covert techs are cheaper for replicators also...
Not by a whole lot in the lower levels, but I remember last era when I had to pay 30 billion for an upgrade, a replicator would be paying more like 22.

And yes, I am yet to see a significant boost in my covert from being a replicator, but it did seem alot easier to build it as replicator compared to a Tauri.

covert levels for repi are cheaper
so if your going for TOTAL power being a repi is much easier.

and if you have a few race changes lying around.. you should do what I did at start of this era..

Start era as replicator.
Start of farm fest, farm lots of covert levels - coz they cheaper

change race to asgard
Farm rest of fest and store the naq in weapons because bank not big enough.

wait till High Empty buys 999 UP.

Change to Goa'uld - get merc techs for cheap because no UP..
Buy lots of UP with all the nice naq I had stored :)

the goa'uld income boost makes up for the extra naq for cov/ac levels tho and they get free banking. I think i'll stick with goa'uld lol... sleepy has a good point tho :)
