Bureaucracy SMAC Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri


Bureaucracy SMAC



Bureaucracy is an aspect of Social Engineering in Firaxis' TBS Game of 1999, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (SMAC). Partially based on Efficiency, Bureaucracy is representative of SMAC Drone population increases that stem from number of Bases.

Bureaucracy is the addition of extra Drones because a faction has exceeded a certain number of bases. The bureaucracy formula works as follows:

BaseLimit = (8 - Difficulty) * (4 + Efficiency) * MapRoot / 2

Where:

  • Difficulty = Player's difficulty level (0 - 5)
  • Efficiency = Social Engineering Efficiency rating
  • MapRoot = Sq. Root of # Map Squares / Sq. Root of 3200

For each base a faction builds in excess of this number, one additional drone will appear at some base somewhere in the colony.
