i think that the naq spended in the ships slots should need to give Ascension Power Points to.
this would be beter for everyone.

I say no - all people would do is buy loads and loads of slots, and not buy the weapons.
Does a 'slot' really give you any power?

Smart people would just buy UP. Since thats the most effective way you can possibly go no matter how much you want to spend.
I say yes, because MS is needed for rank, rank is needed for ascension, therefor a factor that you have to buy should give alot mroe APP.
Even if it is 1slot gives 5APP. Thats still not alot to ask for since most people get 10k+ slots for attack and defense these days.

Wolf won me over a long time ago on this argument....
Right now your mothership is one of the few things that you truly loose when you ascend, and it hits you harder than say spy levels because you get squat for it. It is currently the main drawback to building a huge mofo of a mothership if you are unsure if you will ascend (again) or not. I vote leave it how it is.

Agreed. Best argument.

But it becomes cheaper if you no longer need to buy the weapons.
Honestly people - do you want to remove every difficulty from the game completely? Big deal, you don't get APP from weapons slots - but why the hell should you? You already get some APP for your Mothership, leave it at that and leave some small element of difficulty in the game!
At Inferno - As for UP. The really smart people therefore don't increase their UP that much (or build a huge mothership) if they are going for multiple ascensions quickly.
A realism check people - you need approx 1,800 APP to Ascend - now just before I gave my account away it was ready to reascend with in excess of 60,000 APP - and that was without even trying, and having come out of the back end of a war!
There needs to be some risk and loss left in this game! Ascension was never meant to be easy - and now you want to make it even easier?
