The_Sadukar Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 To bring this back to topic, I know why WW put the ordos into the games, they needed a house that the others could beat senseless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 no because they took a lot of things from mcnelly. The DE has Gunseng, who is the father of baron vladimer in the DE. They talk about Duke minutarus. the tank was named after him. THey have ordos in there and the ordos crest from house wallach in the DE. They took their ideas from the DE.

Babylon Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 Minor houses can own planets (Theilaxu)Feyd-Rautha and Glossu both named Rabban and sons of Abulard Rabban, but he original was named Harkonnen (he's the half-brother of Vladimir Harkonnen). He took the name of his wife. And they come from the planet Lankaviel, property of the family Harkonnen. The Rautha in Feyd-Rautha is from the father of Abulard wife. Which was killed by Glossu. After Glossu killed his father(Abulard) he named himself Beast.Ordos are in the game (I think) because they wanted a race which focussed on infantery and light vehicles (Atreides), a race with heavy vehicles (Harkonnen), and one with spy aballity and plain sneaky stuff (Ordos).

TMA_1 Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 correct me if I am wrong but the tleilaxu arent even a minor house. they dont want anything to do with pawandah scum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 I still think the Ordos is a cool house, unimaginable that the house is created by Westwood.But isn't the house Mentioned. In the Books? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 It is in the DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 i still think that they should of had corrino instead. But it is kinda neat to have a sneaky, insidius house like Ordos. But in Emperor, I did not like them that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunseng_Harkonnen Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Corrino are imperial House. Maybe WW thought its too powerful. But it would be cool have dune games and have occasion to be on the Corrino side. But then Sardaukar could ally only with them. It would be strange sards against them.Ordos could be great but I still like most Houses that appear in real Dune books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_snowman Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 It would be cool to have Corrino instead of ordos in the game.And wasnt it Bene Theilaxu ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 yeah it was bene tleilaxu. Nobody in the book series considered them a house. But I don't like how Westwood labeled them "Subhouses", it should be like "Allies" or something of that effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babylon Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 They have the size to be a house minor, or even a house major, but they don't want to be one and the rest of the houses despises them to much to become one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord J Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 Something to think about:Was the affor-mentioned list constructed for pre-, post- or mid- Dune storyline? Â Obviously not pre, as House Vernius isn't listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander_Ordos Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 I guess ordos just sounds great :) Anyhow they will soon be mentioned in the books like:Dune:House Ordos  ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 IF I could create a game like Dune,with 3 houses,I would make all of them have hi-tech weapons but they have assorted anti-armor,anti-inf,anti-air based on their house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 If Westwood wants to earn money by selling Dune games, they should makes games about the other houses. They should make a strategy or a Command and Conquer based game about all the houses.So it will a huge galatic war, you can choose your allies. The landsraad will ofcourse be in too ( Or maybe not )They must ofcourse, implent the original houses in the game. I'm still a huge fan of the Harkonnen and Ordos. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
