	NAHOO \|\| Dune II
		Dune II Loosely based on the novels by Frank Herbert, Dune II is the very first real-time strategy game in existence.
		The game brings together three powerful forces for good, greed and evil, the armies of the Harkonnen, Ordos and Atreides, fighting for the supremacy.
		Dune 2 is becoming increasingly difficult to find on the internet so I have made it easy for you; including lots of utilities like Dunedit, to edit maps and units.

	What's So Great About Dune?
		Dune would still have been a viable, albeit less memorable, novel if Herbert had focused on the politics of the vast, interplanetary Imperium to the exclusion of the everyday life of his desert planet.
		Dune is filled with the history, laws and customs of the Imperium, each new bit of information contributing a brush-stroke of nuance to Herbert's sprawling canvas where perspective ranges in dizzying variety from the microcosmic world of flukes and water droplets to the cosmic pageantry of galactic history.
		A board game produced in the early 80s is a collector's item today and is still in print in a French edition.

	Funagain Games: Dune
		This edition of DUNE was produced under license from Avalon Hill and is the same game as the original Avalon Hill edition that was produced in 10+ years ago.
		DUNE manages to create an environment of six very different and complex powers where each one at times can be considered 'too powerful'.
		Game length is highly variable, as I have seen the game end on the 15th (last) turn, but also as early as the second.

	Fremen - Dune Wiki
		The Fremen are the native inhabitants of Arrakis, also known as Dune, the desert planet that is the sole source of the spice melange in the known universe.
		The Dune 2000 Fremen require the Atreides Palace to be built before becoming accesible to the player.
		Their most notable trait is the ability to remain invisible to all enemy units unless in very close proximity.

	Dune
		Used copies of Dune are highly sought after, and popularity is at an all-time high with new prequel books written by Brian Herbert, a recent television miniseries, and a limited edition role-playing game.
		However, this game will be played to completion unless all players vote to end the game and unanimously agree to concede to a single player or two-player alliance.
		All 5-player game PP scores will be further normalized by multiplying by 5/6 to allow them to be fairly compared against PP scores from 6-player games.

		Thus all the hassle of choosing options, setting up a game, and then waiting for somebody to show up is done away with, for those players who do not have all the time in the world on their hands.
		Dune fanatics should enjoy this title because of how faithful it is to that science fiction universe.
		Emperor: Battle for Dune is the finest RTS title Westwood has produced thus far, and it is for this reason that I felt confident enough to nominate it for The Wargamer excellence award.

	GameOver - Dune 2000 (c) Westwood Studios (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Much can be said for and against the new Dune, but one thing's for sure - it, unfortunately, is not the same ground-breaking game as Dune II was.
		On the other hand, even the original Dune's speech sounded with a PC speaker (read: off), especially in the intro, where the only way to hear the beautiful intro music was to switch to PC speaker mode.
		Some of us learned all the nuances of the game, the way the music would pick up in intensity just before a big attack came down on you, how to kill a harvester or tank with just a single rifleman, how to sneak and divert the enemy forces, how to win.

	Dune Board Game Remake - Pretty Please? \| Critical Gamers - CriticalGamers.com
		The original Dune is also heralded as one of the better games from gaming history, and closely tied to the setting from Frank Herbert’s masterpiece novel.
		As a testament to its greatness and longevity, the game - originally published in 1979 - still holds rank #44 on Board Game Geek, and can be found passing through gaming hands via Ebay for upwards of $150-$200.
		Due to this passive stonewalling, Fantasy Flight Games has decided to circumvent the Dune tie-ins.

		Well, for starters, this game's concept is completely different from that of Dune 2.
		As you probably already know, Dune is famous for being the only source of "spice melange" which is the most-wanted substance in the universe because it enables interstellar travel.
		The game is basically a fine blend between adventure and strategy, and both aspects are very well balanced.

	Game Trivia for Dune
		The game should not have existed : during the end of 1990, the project was officially abandoned by Virgin Games, who then hired Westwood to work on a Dune license-based strategy game...
		However, Westwood's Dune II, first RTS game has nothing to do with either a novel or the movie, nor is it a sequel to this Dune.
		This game's amazing soundtrack, composed by Stephane Picq and Philippe Ulrich, was released on audio CD by Virgin Records (catalog no. CDVE 911), also including some extra tracks that didn't feature in the game.

		Anyway, I don't know anything about the rights to the Dune board game, but I for one would be eternally grateful if FFG could manage to obtain them and make a new version.
		Dune fanatics like me have to satisfy ourselves currently with our own home-made printed versions, but we've always felt (and hoped and prayed) that the Dune boardgame would someday be reprinted, and I really really hope that FFG will be the ones to do it.
		Based on their line up of games for 2006, especially the 'epic' sized ones, they really do know what the people want, and they are catering for them, thus the reason to hope they won't pass up on this opportunity called Dune.

	Dune 2000 for PS - Dune 2000 PlayStation - Dune 2000 PS Game
		Basically a port of the PC version, Dune 2000 is lackluster at best, because it is a port of a lackluster PC game.
		In borrowing conventions from earlier games, Westwood managed to make its latest project interesting enough and enjoyable enough to be worthwhile for virtually anyone who's ever liked another game of its type.
		While some may take away from Dune 2000 a fleeting sense of nostalgia for the classic, most will invariably leave the game disappointed and wondering how a true sequel might have turned out.

		At the time (1986) our games group was playing the Dune strategy board game based on the book, and so we came to understand all about the world of Arrakis (=Dune) and appreciated how well the dramatic music here fitted the movie.
		Dune is a great story because it is about the fulfilment of prophecy and the very difficult struggles caused by facing one's destiny.
		I had purchased this shorter album domestically when it was released only to be both extremely satisfied to finally have the Dune score and also disappointed that much of the film's music was not included.

		The winner is the first player to occupy at least three strongholds (red territories) with at least one of his tokens at the end of any turn in the game.
		In a two player game, the number of strongholds needed to win is increased to four.
		The basic rules are pretty simple, but the special powers can make the first game a bit messy, as well as the fact that the common way to win is a shared win within an alliance with another game.

		The main concept is well known: watching from a bird's-eye perspective, your job is to build a functional base using the facilities on offer, and create an army worthy of defeating the opposing force(s).
		As you can see from the screenshots, the graphics aren't spectacular when compared to modern-day games, but in 1992 such complexity, cutscenes and well-implemented, functional graphics were rarely seen.
		If this review did not convince you that this game is just phenomenal, I advise that you download it and see for yourself.

		If the game is a little more easygoing, with no set amount of time, a GM would still obviously need to keep things from getting TOO out of hand.
		That doesn't mean I won't make a few snide remarks in the game thread, for example, making fun of their spelling, or keeping a tally of a player's personal life points while keeping track of one of their pet peeves.
		The most important part of the game from a GM standpoint, is to have an interesting game.

		After that there were a couple of VCR games that I did with Jack Kittredge, outside of the Eon realm.
		I think that for the board game, the current configurations are OK> But one could opt for a quicker game by cutting down the various numbers.
		The games took hours, and players were often eliminated way before the game ended, and others were still in but knew that they could never win.

		The game is built upon consent-based role-play, where intrigue is common, politics are paramount, and the Faufreluches define order.

	Dune
		Dune is much the better of the two.
		The human environment of Dune is rather closely related to that of a medieval fantasy, with a feudal system involving Barons, Dukes, and the Emperor who bestows entire planets as fiefs on his followers.
		On the other hand Dune is the more daring work in its vision of a whole new planetary ecology: the desert, the spice (essential to space travel), the sandworms, and the adaptations made by the people living there to their environment, while Middle Earth is rarely far from pastoral England or chivalric Europe.
