AJNA all the way...

and I must say... go for the ascension... you may lose the 25% bonus... but who's stupid enough to attack an ancient anyways...^_^

you haven't truly played the game until you have ascended...
for one... you get that cool red caption under your name...

It's worth it IF you have the army size to gather loads of naq. Weapons are a lot stronger, but cost a bunch more. I made a stronger defense after I ascended with less troops, but it cost a boatload more in naq to make.

On the flip side, I can build a strike much, much faster now than I could before I ascended. Again it takes more naq, but I also make more naq than before. I made up for my troop losses in about a weeks worth of casual raiding, and with less units needed for my defense I actually have more miners now.

As far as which ascended race to pick, it doesn't really matter if you do it right. Any differences in the races can easily be made up with by upgrades. Can't get into the specifics because it's against the rules. :P

I only ascended 10 days ago, but I'm glad I finally did. Don't plan on doing it again until I get around 10m army size though. :-D

Yes, more efficient defences and offences are good and the game becomes far more interesting once you gain access to the ascended server and the ascended forums.

It's only really worth Ascending if you can comfortably Ascend at least 3 or 4 times quickly. It's no good being a Prior or a Prophet, and even a Messiah to an extent.

Ascending quickly is such a waste in some people's opinions. :P Besides I know plenty of Priors that can hold their own.

Slower ascensions=more stats in between=more ascension power points which therefore=a stronger ascension account.

Make sure and include your ascended name and ID# so Psi can verfy that you are indeed ascended. You aren't missing much though, the ascended forum is pretty slow.
