BOTE calculation...
Cashers will need 70 tech pts per acre (20 bus/res, 20 military, 10 weapons)
Farmers will need 70 tech pts per acre (20 agr, 10 bus/res, 20 military, 10 weapons)
Indys will need 58 tech pts per acre due to their 120% bonus
Assuming 40% Indies, 40% Cashers, 20% Farmers (I don't know if farmers are needed that much) that is an average of 65 pts per non-techer.
So if a techer produces .34*1.3 pts per acre and stocks for 1000 turns... Each teching acre can support between 6 and 7 in equilibrium.
I must admit I thought the ratio would be more like 1:10. Did I mess something up there or does that make sense?
Of course if you removed the RAs the ratio would shrink by 30%.
edit. Obvious error here is that techers only tech 1000 turns a set... I'm not sure what that number really is but a significant portion of those turns are before the stocking process.
