The Fremen strikes will come from the left side of the map. Fremen warriors aren't much of a threat, but you should pay close attention to any Fedaykin that appear. At the start of the level, move your Inkvine Catapults to the edge of the plateau at the top where the trees are, and fire at the Atreides Infantry/Snipers in the trenches. As soon as the Inkvines fire, pull them back to avoid being chased. Your construction yard should be deployed in the bottom corner of the plateau where you start. You'll have little room to build, so conserving space is a must if you're going to fit everything you'll need.

To ward off the Fremen, you'll have to be quick with your units. Direct flame tanks to burn any Fedaykin you see, and order your Inkvine Catapults to overrun them as well.

House Ix is an extremely valuable ally in this scenario. You should build a House of Ix, and upgrade it to produce Ixian Projector tanks as soon as possible. When you have 1 projector, deploy it in the hill to the right of the plateau you started on, along the eastern edge of the map. (You can also find a money crate lying around near houses here). Start replicating vehicles non-stop until you have a large cluster. Move this cluster away from your projector and onto somewhere deserted. If you keep this cluster of projections grouped together, and the units are expensive enough, the Hawk Strike should hit the projections. When this occurs, simply make a new cluster of fake units and send them somewhere to be hit by the Hawk Strike again.

To ward off the Minotaurus/Mongoose/Sonic Tank attacks, use projections, or a small group of Sarduakar Elite (if you have them). 5 Sarduakar Elite should be all you need. Keep your Sarduakar Elite running while Minotauruses are firing at them. The shots should all miss. When the Minotauruses are reloading, shoot them with the Sarduakar and run. Repeat until the Minos are all dead. Mongoose are easily killed, just make sure they don't crush your Sards. ;)

Any Sonic Tank or Minotaurus with no Mongoose support are easy prey for Gunships.

When possible, get a starport. This is very important, as it will give you access to your Devastators. You should form a ring of Devastators around the north ridge of the plateau you start on to deal with Mongooses, and Minos. Since they are on the high ground, they will have an range advantage, and should be able to shoot most enemy units from where they are standing. If the Atreides are hitting you from outside your range, move out to engage them. Advanced Carryalls can be of great benefit here.

Finally, take care to ensure that any vehicle that gains two chevrons is proteted and kept alive. These units have the ability to self repair, which keeps attrition to a minimum and helps you to save money.
