Additional Info » My first map with the following background: Long ago a fight took place in this region between the Fremen, Harkonnen, Ix, Tleilaxu, Sardaukar and the Guild. At least that's what the remnants of these houses tell. It's unclear who else was involved. But now there is peace, the desert sings her own tunes again. But for how long...? Nobody knows. Exploit all the nooks and crannies of the area and use what you find to your advantage. Especially infantry can be deployed in a variety of ways. There is a reasonable amount of spice but when the easier harvest regions have depleted, the battle for spice becomes tougher. The map is best played in multi player but a single skirmish against an AI will also result in interesting games. Especially when the energy gates have been destroyed (I haven't seen an AI do that yet). I'd appreciate your feedback and if you're interested in the .dme file, just drop me a mail.
