Well, they came in the mail yesterday. I started a game on Citizen as Lal, so far so good. About half of the other factions are SMAX.
Also, a question: does the bureaucratic base limit apply to captured bases as well? If I already have more bases than I should, will conquering some more add to the problem? Seems reasonable to assume it would but didn't know.
Another question!
So I know that you only get the clean mineral limit benefit of tree farms, et al, after the first fungus pop. But does a sea fungus pop count?
Also, other than drones, are there other consequences? Like a massive drop in income or something?
I am Yang, decided to build a crapton of bases just for fun. Got the warning but built a few more anyways. I haven't had any rioting, or even any drones appear that I can think of (using lots of police units as garrison) but I noticed all of a sudden I was losing a bunch of money and hadn't recently changed my SE settings. Thought maybe it was connected.
