When building the first base the dialog states that it
will cost 100000c. However a lot more credits are
subtracted from the account (several millions). The
"base costs dialog" probably does not properly add up
all individual building costs.

I believe establishing a new base does cost 100,000 credits,
however this cost is just creating an empty base with no
buildings. The cost for the first base includes all the
individual building costs (for example a laboratory and
dropship hangar will cost you over a million to build, but
on startup these are built and their cost deducted from your
account). On initial base-setup the cost of hiring soldiers
and buying initial equipment is also taken into account I think.

So probably the only bug here is in the way the game fails
to communicate/explain these costs to the user.
