Armies with ascensions

I was scanning through the battlefield and saw a load of people sitting at LG+1 with like 75 -100mil armys. Now people on this game don't stop moaning about how they hate the idea of capping army sizes.

So I was thinking right.... to stop the moaning and keep the game movign so people don't just sit and build....

How about with the moe ascensions you do the higher you're allowed your army size.....?

Like people could keep the armys they have but they wouldn't be allowed to grow anymore until they ascended...like the disease hits when you reach the limit now anyway....


Prior...10mill
Prophet...20mill
Messiah...30mil
Incarnet..40mill
Living God...60mill --- 20mill jump here because it's known to be a milstone in the ascension process.
Living god +1....70mill

and so on til you get to the end.....

What do you think.....would be a solution to caps and it would mean people HAVE to keep growing and playing(like it should be) and can't just sit there and build up.....

Personally, i don't like this idea, at the moment there is already a moving CAP. so everyone still hits, so its not that much of a problem if everyone keeps growing..
i think

and at 10mill disease that is nasty lol it make an even bigger gap from new/smaller players than the larger ones

Rofl.. it's a brilliant idea, Batz. ;)
If you would want everyone to go for ascensions only. :)

Might be better to enhance the ascension server itself first.

Hmmm problem being it would need a reset...that noone wants :lol:
And this would make everyone LG or so at the end, I don't really see the goal of this, really...
If people want to remain unascended or on low ascended level, it's their wish afterall ;)

You could make it so that people get the level of ascension corresponding with their armysize, unless it's lower than their current ascension level..

That would make even more LGs ingame.
That would mean to reach 140+mil army size it would be impossible because of ascension costs, reaching 160mil army would never happen for most players who aren't yet 160mil. Why 160? Because noone yet managed to get that high.
Don't forget weapon sale update, don't forget UP update, even if ameliorated.
This would need a reset, as I said.
It's like a plague, those from before the update are safe, while the ones from after trying to get high, are screwed.
Worst updates style classified.

Ok so the idea isn't perfect but you could work out something along those lines....that wouldn't require a reset of coruse

Problem being, from what I heard, 11th to 20th ascension are very expensive, so the people at 200mil army, wouldn't have problems...unless...OF COURSE...if a player at 265mil has to ascend to reach 270mil, then ascend again for 280mil and so on.
Because 30k UP and 5mil uu and few trillions you do it 5 times each time more added to each, to attain crazy levels of requirements at end, would make the 10+ titles not as appealing as they are now as well. ;)
Common too much, interest decreases.
Good elements, but alot more needed to make it be good :)

It's only a suggestion it would be upto the admin to figure it out....

Problems being:
force people to ascend to get above
make people more in problems to attain big armies of people already there
make high ascended titles less unique, so less cool to have

Good points:
Prevent snipers who don't care of their main accounts
Make ascension interesting again above LG

it would not work cause to grow you need to have a small raw and with the new commander update it just be nightmare

also would suck with war cause if 1 person does not want to grow and has a high covert level it would be alot easier to use sab for massing then normal attacks and if they have covert planets OMG i dont want to think about it

plus it be harder for smaller people to ascend cause there alot of larger player 4K+ that would want to ascend

The limits were just examples to show the idea they weren't anything serious...i thought that would be what people assumed
