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.

(Negative efficiency ratings are treated as 0 for bureaucracy purposes)

MapRoot = Sq. Root of # Map Squares / Sq. Root of 3200.

Note: BaseLimit is unaffected by Children's Creche.

COMMON MAPROOTS Tiny = 0.6, Small = 0.8, Standard = 1, Large ~ 1.1, Huge 1.6

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

Efficiency Defaults, for Efficiency = 0

Librarian, standard 10 bases, Transcend 6 bases

Librarian, huge 16 bases, Transcend, 9 bases
