The Deliverance Engine allows you to spread culture remotely and very rapidly. Culture does the following:

- On planets you control where your culture is dominant, you get an Allegiance bonus. This means you get more income from that planet.

- On planets your enemy controls where your culture is dominant, the enemy suffers an Allegiance penalty. This means they get less income from that planet.

- If a planet's Allegiance reaches zero, it will rebel against its owners and become neutral.

- A neutral planet where one player's culture is dominant can only be colonized by that player.

- The Advent can research technologies that give their ships a shield bonus when fighting in areas where their culture is dominant.

- The Advent can research an upgrade that allows them to see any area where their culture is dominant as if they had a ship there.

So the effects of the Deliverance Engine are subtler than the other superweapons, but it should not be underestimated.

Man, Just imagine what can happen if you both have the Deliverance Engine and the Novalik cannon :LOL:

You shoot at what you are wanting to attack so you get the shield bonus when you warp your fleet in.

Also spying.

Their super weapon buffs their fleets shields and reveals a planet with out using scout ships. That pretty powerful if you ask me =P

i dunno..you can have the best culture in the universe and still be shattered by a few good shots from the TEC super weapon. Id like to see shields given to the advent someday, to protect the planets as tec does but maybe im not using the advent properly. :NOTSURE:
