Two less drones at every base if your society's Economics are Planned
One less drone at every base if your society's Economics are Simple or Green
Economy increased by 50% at this base for Free Market Economies
This one is unique in that its powers change - radically
- based on your Economics choice. Note that the three powers are not anywhere
close to equal. Not only is the benefit twice as great for Planned than for Simple
or Green ( just owning this project is itself a strong argument for a Planned
economy), but both are far better than the benefit for Free Market. Read the description
carefully - the drone reduction power affects every base in your faction, but
the Free Market power only affects the base you build the improvement in.
Projects that reduce your drone problems are always highly
recommended for any development-based strategy, but truthfully this one is probably
the least useful of all the projects that keep your population happy. If you grab
the HumanGenome Project and
Virtual World ( along with the Network
Nodes it needs to work ) early on, and Clinical Immortality
and the Telepathic Matrix later, you can probably
maintain a stable society throughout the whole game without this one. Unless you're
a total tyrant, of course, in which case you need all the help you can get. Also
the drone-prone University will find
this one extra useful.
