50th SA. Been following this thread for ages but haven't posted before, thought I'd do it now for the milestone.

The SAs were becoming pretty monotonous, but after getting insane RCB recently things became more interesting as many maps have early resource caches that now give more armies via mercs than what they cost. Planning to get a leg/insane MD soon to boost this even more.

Some stats:
9.75x AP (+875%)
17 slots
"Optimal" SA currently would take 27.5h according to my spreadsheet (not accounting for TW usage, either power or arti), half of which is spent upgrading hospitals. In practice I take more like 2-3 days depending of how much I feel like playing. Halfway point is during CCC. I'll be going for +25% AP over +100 AP for some time still, looking to get rid of some of the hospital upgrades.

@Drinian
If you join a cw clan then you can reduce the cooldown of active artifacts to 9h each

11th SA. +25 for 125% AP and 6 addl artis.

Could have been a few days faster if real life wasn't in my way. Fancy's CB matters significantly - though for most maps I don't need SAC to start, a few still need it to finish without drafting for hours and hours. Especially Odo and HFL.

leg A$B ACB SAC AV TW and epic HB, plus 2 rare fodder. Hoping for CB or MD or even IM next. Whatever it is will be insane fodder eventually

My first and possibly only super ascension:

Insane Army Cache Boost
Legendary Alloy Values
Legendary Supercharge Army Camp

SA 18 +1 slot
I received an epic $$B from wzib, which is now upgrading to legendary.

First time superascending, with an insane A$B, a legendary TW and, as soon as the upgrade is ready, a legendary AV.

Second SA.
+50% AP, insane AV, insane A$B.

I am slower than JK, it took me 1 year and 9 months.

I have super-ascended five more times (now 115).

Total boons:
* +1600 AP at startup (+1)
* +1600% AP from levels (+4)
* +28 artifact carryover
* +7 artifact dig speed

Artifacts carried over:

Insane (4): A$B, A^B, CB, MeD
Insane (4): RCB,  TW, IM, AV
Insane (3): SAC, MCB, HB
Legend (2): TW^s, HB^f

 OV (2): legend, epic
BMB (2): legend, rare
TMB (2): legend, uncomm
 SC (2): legend, epic^u

 MB (2):   epic, uncomm
 IV (2):   rare, uncomm

Epic (3): DB, {TS, QS}^f

^f:fodder, ^u:upgrade
^s:spare, ^d:downgrade

Highlights:
* stopped doing regular Copper Creek Castle
* added Far Land as a temporary replacement
* that should become unnecessary in ~5 supers
* continued rebuilding mid-tier churn artifacts
* haven't decided what my next insane will be

10 days is a new record, thanks to improved cache surfing.

Yesterday 12th SA. +arti for 125% AP and 7 addl artis.

Again could have been a few days faster if I played optimally. Don't see what my next significant speedup will be. I've had to start farming SL at the end of a run so I can get to hex.

I have super-ascended five more times (now 120).

Highlights:
* started TMB upgrade to insane; done soon
* perhaps BMB will be the next one; we'll see
* experimenting with lower levels of add.mercs
* now able to skip directly from Sengoku to HFL

Completed my full set of 41 Insane artifacts (plus a few odd duplicates):




Might be time to retire.

Actually fast enough that digging can't keep up. I will have to toss some rares for the next few supers until I make an insane and free up some slots. That might be in as little as 2 supers but could be 4 or 6, depending on my digging luck.

leg A$B ACB SAC AV TW MD and epic HB TS. Hope I can hang on to my rare IM in order to make it my second insane down the line.

Got a replacement SAC so going ahead with the insane. I expect to be a lot slower with nearly no artis this super. Hopefully I can replace the TW soon.
