Megacorp civic: All-inclusive Retailers

[WeeBigTerd101]

This Megacorporation started out taking any opportunity it could find and adapting to any customer it could sell to.

Can establish branch office buildings on hivemind and Machine intelligence worlds if you have a commercial pact. (commerical pacts from a hive would give a base of energy production instead of trade. although it would have to be a smaller percentage as energy income is larger than trade income.)
Mutually exclusive with Gospel of the Masses and Criminal Heritage.

The amount of energy gained is equal to a fraction of the number of pops for each authority.
However, branch offices on hivemind worlds need a greater number of pops to achieve the same payout as on a machine's world.
Branch offices on hive worlds require a base food upkeep that goes to the hive empire.
Branch offices on Machine Worlds require a base energy upkeep that goes to the machine empire.
Some branch office buildings get renamed or become unavailable on Gestalt worlds and their values get changed.

possible examples of building changes:
Amusement megaplex becomes Corporate Hive Warren or Corporate Drone Storage.
Commercial Forum becomes Production Coordinator and gives 1 maintenance job instead of a merchant job.

Makes more sense the base upkeep for machines is energy, not alloys.
Which is better balanced with the hivemind branch office with food (minerals for lithoid hive) upkeep.

Though rather than a megacorp civic, I'd rather see gestalts get a trade civic.
But instead trade value, just use base resources.

Advanced resources available if going with a mercantile tradition tree for gestalts.
