Imagine a late-game scenario, with 1 15-pop city and 15 4-pop cities, each city has a campus with all its infrastructures, radiated by nuclear power plant. Has Kilwa wonder and double adj card, campus has an average adj of +2. Pingala assigned to the 15-pop city. All cities are kept to be ecstatic. Each city has 7 amenity, the Pingala city has 13 amenity. Kilwa and Diplo Zone are located in the Pingala city/capital.
Ignore science from tiles, trade routes, or Raj, or other sources. Assuming no specialists.
Scenario 1:
0 Scientific CS
Total Science Output:
Pin:
(22.5+4+2+4+8+3+2(Palace))*1.2=54.6 Science
Other Cities:
(2+4+2+4+8+3)*1.2=27.6 Science
Overall Science: 54.6+27.6*15=468.6 Science
Scene 2: Add 1 Geneva City State
Total Science Output:
Pin:
(22.5+4+2+4+8+6+3+3(Palace)+5(from Diplo Zone))*1.35=77.6 Science
Other Cities:
(2+4+2+4+8+3+6)*1.2=34.8 Science
Overall Science: (77.6+34.8*15)*1.15=689.5 Science
Scene 3: Add Taruga on top of Geneva, assuming each city has 2 resource in average.
Total Science Output:
Pin:
(22.5+4+2+4+8+6*2+3+4+10)*1.6=111.2 Science
Other Cities:
(2+4+2+4+8+3+6*2)*1.45=50.8 Science
Overall Science: (111.2+50.8*15)*1.15=1004.2 Science
Scene 4: Add Anshan on top of Geneva/Taruga, assuming Anshan has zero effect.
Total Science Output:
Pin:
(22.5+4+2+4+8+6*3+3+5+15)*1.6=130.4 Science
Other Cities:
(2+4+2+4+8+3+6*3)*1.45=59.5 Science
Overall Science: (130.4+59.5*15)*1.15=1176.3 Science
By adding a Geneva we successfully increases science output by 40%, by adding Taruga we doubles the science output, having 3 science city-states will yield you 250% of science output than having 0 science CS.
Science CSs Total Science
0 468.6
1 689.5
2 1004.2
3 1176.3
Conclusion:
City-state bonus is overpowered and is the main source of science yields, even if we don't count Globalization.
Having different number of scientific city-states on the map influences your science progress very very much.
Ignore science from tiles, trade routes, or Raj, or other sources. Assuming no specialists.
