i read some small parts and it looks ok.

Imo what would help this game really alot is that by ascending you don't get 5% on each stat but only 5% or 10% (or whatever) distributable as you want to to whichever stat you want (income,defence,strike,covert) in addition to that you wouldn't loose the bonus of the unascended race.
So if you were tollan lg+1, the best you could have would be a 55% bonus to strike, but your defence, covert and income would remain without any bonuses so you could farm well but would neither have a huge income or a great defence or covert.

It would put the strategy into the game whether someone goes for one stat only or for a balanced account.

that sort of bonus could be good... but it'd require a lot of work to make...

how about on such a system, have the change of bonus available, but only on ascending... also, that could be combined with the system suggested by tok'ra... more or less having the races tok'ra suggested, + extra race where the bonus is self-assigned, with the last having several name options...

Great idea mate, personally I would love to see the ascended races get more personalised. Would change the gameplay tremendously which is what I think we need. It would bring an element of skill back to the game. Urogard's idea is good as well and if done well it could be great.

Now I think of it, the free jaffa idea would be awesome. I can imagine them going toe to toe with the System Lord alliances around now, which is what its all about!

But in summary the main things that need to get changed IMO are ascended race specific stats bonuses and technologies. The specifics are up to admin.
