Power Grid: The Stock Companies

Adds a stock-market layer to the Power Grid system, offering three alternate ways to play the base game or Deluxe. The primary mode makes players shareholders who buy and trade shares to gain control of power companies and collect wealth from company performance. Two variant modes alter objectives: one rewards ownership of companies that supply the most cities, while the other lets players found and run private companies, selling shares to raise cash and buy into rivals to reap partial gains from their success. Integrates with existing maps and New Power Plants content to multiply playable combinations and uses a shares module adapted from game 504.
