Corporate Dominion

[Barath]

Hi,

I am pretty new to the game and I've got a quick question:

On every wiki/guide I find the info, that the civic "corporate dominion" gives +1 Energie for every trading hub - but the ingame description of the civiv dosent say so!

Was it changed recently, so the guides arent up to date - or is the ingame description lacking? thx 4 the help.

It's pre-2.2 info, when trading hubs gave energy instead of trade collection range.

Ah! Ok. That makes "Corporate Dominion" look kinda weak, dosent it?

The current version of Corporate Dominion gives you the Offworld Trade Companies tech for free (which allows you to build a building on your starbases that causes each trade hub to produce 2 trade value, in addition to the normal effects of the trade hubs) and allows you to build Private Colony Ships (which cost only energy, instead of Food/Minerals + Alloys + Consumer Goods). If your empire is going to focus on trade value and will be trying to expand early, then it is not weak at all.

Note that the Megacorp expansion disables the Corporate Dominion civic, but enables a wider array of options including the Corporate authority and a variety of megacorp-specific civics.
