SB culture modules

from Stardock Forums
hi,

there was a in game message that seemed to instruct me to build SBs with culture modules. my question is, if i have a SB with culture modules in a sector that doe's "not" have systems, what will the culture modules affect?

does it increase the culture from the nearby sector (right next door)? if so, then building SBs with culture modules more than 1 sector away from one of your systems would be useless then right?

thanks

SB with culture influence decrease in influence as you move from sector to sector. But the influence is still there several sectors away, just not very strong. If you go to the top right of the main screen you will se a small button that will tell you the influence of all the races for that sector.

SB culture modules have a direct influence on the sectr of the starbase ans the 8 adjacent sectors. After that, there is a more diffuse influence on the rest of the galaxy, which is based on your total influence.

Sone players use this as a strategy (myself included). Build up high culture SB's in a neutral sector adjacent to the race you want to take over next. Add on a healty helping of militatry additions to your SB turn it into a Terror Star move it into the other races sector and culture flip them. It takes some time but it also males for a lot less planents you have to invade.
