oooh.. lvl 26+ = territory? not pop based?
Yup, seems a little odd to me, but I guess this way just makes it easy to understand.
is there any point in having trade incentive most planets? or am i just robbing myself to pay myself....
You're robbing yourself. Trade Incentives lower the price of Consumer Goods & Hydrocarbons which you don't need and raises the price of Steel and other usable resources. It means that any trade fleets coming to the planet are more likely to sell you things you can use. So I have one on my home planet so that trade ships bring over Steel/etc and take away Consumer Goods.
