 2. In game terms each player will always play for his nation and then execute the turns of all companies where he is the majority investor. Companies are switched between players as the majority stock owner will execute their turn. The name of a company will always include the controlling nation to provide some clarity. 2.

 1. Stock of a company can be owned by one of the five nations or by the general anonymous public. All stock market transactions are between the currently acting nation and the general public, no shares are ever sold directly between nations. Stocks are always sold in 5% blocks to simplify things. 1. Stock of a company can be owned by one of the five nations or by the general anonymous public.

 1. The map consists of the Solar System with some close planets. In the solar system you find the main 8 planets as well as the sun (which is at the current technology level only an obstacle), inner and outer asteroid belt and the main moons (Pluto is depicted as a large moon due to size). Additionally the 4 closest earth-like planets are depicted and can be settled too. They can be reached over wormholes. Each offworld planet has a wormhole at the edge of the solar system in the quadrant close to it. You will get an info once wormhole technology becomes available between rounds 10 to 20. Wormholes transport all units on them to the other side at the beginning of a round. 1. The map consists of the Solar System with some close planets.

 A. There is an intentional development curve: At the beginning everybody will be able to make profit unless they get drawn into a prolonged war. The stock value of the initial companies will first fall then rise. But as more and stronger companies get to the start (and they get a huge research boost) the companies which started first will get under heavy pressure. Then a third wave of companies might start to take over the solar system for good. A.

 B. It is intentional that the initial money will not be sufficient to float a company with just one nation investing. You need to cooperate ... at least in the beginning. B.
