Organizations
Organisations within Mega-Primus Every Cityscape map consists buildings owned by Corporations, Political Groups, Criminal Gangs and the Government. Each business entity may have various advantages when having good relations with X-Com whereas cordial relationships with most, helps to keep the peace.
The Important Organisations
- Government contains the Senate which is the ruling party of Mega-Primus containing political members representing the interests of all, for the common good. Extraterrestial Combat Unit (which is X-Com) is the solution to the new problem of "invaders from another world" and is funded by the Government in agreement that X-Com will remove the problem.
- Megapol is the law within Mega-Primus. Any nefarious activity is dealt with immediately including any threats to the Government by these invaders. Self funded with armament and vehicle sales.
- Marsec is a self-proclaimed off-world law enforcement corporation overseeing security on the planet, Mars. Self funded by an extensive range of weaponry, vehicles, and ammunition available to all well-paying customers.
- Transtellar solar-system-wide transport company providing services to anyone, no matter how big or small.
Note: If X-Com can maintain positive fund totals, the Government issued funding may eventually become irrelevant. They are only classed as "Important" in the early game.

Corporate Security Guards
Each organisation has some capability to defend itself against minor threats to its personel, the structure, and the $mooth operation of the company.
Security Guards are found as:
- Police within Megapol owned buildings.
- Gangsters within gang controlled buildings.
- Cultists within their temples.
- Building Security available to all others.
"Building Security" may be also known as "Guards"
The maximum quantity of security guards within each particular corporation is typically sixteen units. It may be randomly higher or lower but only to a limit of ±25% of the total. The limit is twenty of any type.
Security Guards are encountered when X-Com raids another organisation. If X-Com is hostile to the organisation when searching their buildings for alien infestation, Security Guards will also appear alongside any alien lifeforms that have been found.
Note: X-Com base invaders, Corporate Thugs, are not building security, or guards, or security and will only appear inside a base defence mission.
- Tech Levels granted to each are always the same for a new game irrelevant of which difficulty was chosen.
- Security Guards are always human. Android or Hybrids are not used (even if their inventory picture displays them as such when probed or mind controlled).

Corporate Funds
As Mega-Primus grows in wealth within the confines of the citywalls with its un-expanding landscape, each organisation's balance sheet of initial funds and weekly profit-or-loss totals is freely available to view by anyone.
Each organisation has initial funding and then weekly funding based on the week previous.
- Liquidity of any company (including X-Com) will be decreased immediately if targeted by any hostile performing a raid in a destructive fashion.
- Weekly Profits are decreased by damage and destruction of the cityscape building ψ.
- Funding or Weekly Profits of any organisation, except the Government and X-Com, does not matter since it does not influence anything.
ψ The government owns the top-side structure whereas X-Com owns the basement. Damage to the top-side and the repair costs are borne by the government, not X-Com.
