Except instead of Russians now it is being brought full speed by the whites -the Brits and Americans.


Continental Europeans-enjoy being enslaved and being at their whims.

And enjoy decreasing living standards and infinite Anglo brown pets that the Anglos want to flood the whole Europe with.

yeah nah yeah

Why does everything have to be black or white? What's wrong with a bit of planned economics?

https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Social_Engineering_(SMAC)

Planned

Prerequisite: Planetary Networks

+2 Growth, +1 Industry, -2 Efficiency (except Yang)

"Either a semi-market economy kept in check by fierce governmental regulation, or a completely state controlled economy. Planned economics promotes stable industrial and population growth, but sacrifices efficiency."

Yang will usually want this because he suffers no disadvantages. Otherwise, the efficiency hit can be crippling. The combination of Police State with Planned is signing your faction's death certificate, unless you are Yang, in which case it's your most optimal combination. Otherwise, it is often good for a Democratic faction (in order to give a further boost to Growth), especially because the efficiency of Democratic will balance perfectly against the inefficiency of Planned and with Children's Creches your bases will enter pop boom. Useful in early game because you need to expand and build infrastructure.

This is the preferred choice of both the Caretakers and the Usurpers, and is the Morganites' aversion.



I am not against free market, but it cannot be the driving force, because it create so much friction and gives evil free room to cause havoc. You can buy the law, buy anything .. even the human soul. And that is pure evil. A little bit of competition is good, when it is necessary, to force out a solution. But usually, giving things time and using common sense is the best way forward. Often times we are jumping to conclusions, and often again, a solution is presented just to please greedy investors and it has no real value.


Free Market

Prerequisite: Industrial Economics

+2 Economy, -3 Planet, -5 Police

"Free Market economics turns market forces loose in your society. Unfettered market economics can produce great wealth quickly, but in the context of Planet’s fragile emerging economies can also lead to extremes of pollution and ecological damage. Also, citizens rendered suddenly poor by the actions unscrupulous moguls may revolt against their energy-fattened masters."

This is only good for one thing: bringing in lots of money (especially as Morgan with numerous treaties). Only Yang with a specific set of Secret Projects, buildings, and other Social Engineering choices can actually counter the -5 Police aspect of this. Meanwhile, reversing or minimizing the -3 Planet is doable by any faction. The penalty isn't too bad if you know what you're doing. It is if you don't.

The drone problem can be reduced (or even eliminated) by switching Psych to 10% or 20% in social engineering. Military deployment is out of the question with this economy due to pacifism, but due to your large bank balance, you can instead conduct warfare using probe teams to subvert enemy units and bases.

Advanced players may want to switch to Free Market as early as possible by researching Industrial Economics at the first opportunity. The base tile of each base is free from early game restrictions, and not much energy is being produced elsewhere because the focus is on creating Colony Pods, therefore the energy output of each base can often be doubled, or nearly so.

The Spartans are uniquely capable of lowering the drone penalty for free market before the advent of Thought Control. This is done by use of Police State and Ascetic Virtues. This yields a -1 police rating, allowing one police unit but no nerve stapling.

This is the preferred choice of the Morganites, and is the Gaians' aversion.

You are an Aussie arent you? Look how you recolied defending your Anglo brothers in crime. But I don't discriminate all Anglos are equal you are an Anglo-therefore an enemy


All Five Eyes countries are primary adversaries of the European man-( Aussie, American, Brit, NZ, Canadian).


You want to destroy and loot my continent and everything our ancestors worked for for 1000s of years and then give away our homes to brown people.
