Guessing the Sidebar

[Gobalopper]

Let me know what you think of the sidebar section. I have a few more ideas on which is which but thought I would ask here first.

Looks pretty sweet to me :)

Could the pics u have marked Tleilaux, be actually Sardaukar, due to their "bio-hazard suit"-like apperance ?

[Guest Crockerjarmon]

The so-called Harkonnen Tank 2 is actually a flame tank. You know..like the one from CnC.

[Guest Crockerjarmon]

Atreides unknown 1 is the "Mongoose" I believe. Mech-like unit, that can fire any direction while moving (I heard this somewhere).

Gob! Atreides unknown 5 is definitely the Atreides Sniper.

[Gobalopper]

Davo: Possible, I was flipping back and forth between the two, I will mention both.

Crockerjarmon: Thanks for those two, the names must have slipped my mind, I knew their was a name out there for the Mongoose but didn't remember it at the time :)

Chudymaster: You think so? I found the one already listed as Sniper to look more "sniper-like" then Unknown 5. I think Unknown 4/5 are Fremen units by their placement on the sidebar.

I think the subhouse unknown units 1 & 2 are both either Sardaukar or Tleilaxu. If you look closely they are wearing the same helmets. Judging from the screenshot of the bridge battle on Giedi Prime i would say they are both Sardaukar.

I agree with Shaddam.

[Guest Crockerjarmon]

Remember the Sardaukars from the Lynch's version of Dune? They look quite similar to the ones Shaddam is talking about.

[Guest Tabaqui of gidur log]

I would say that atreides ornithopter2 is probably the atreides advanced carryall

[Gobalopper]

Forgot about that as well, I think all houses get them not just the Atreides though.

Ok, i think that the first Saurkudar is definetly that. - I have the movie on DivX its definitly them -

The Second however could be a Tilixeu Ghola, see the second book on that subject, its covered in the first 10 pages i think.

but it also looks Saurkudar.

The unknown structure looks bene gesserit, prehaps they are doing what westwood have done in every other game, and stolen unit ideas from one of their other games - and made Units that use the "Voice" - aka Bene Gesserit Sisters.

If you notice in this picture: http://www.dune2k.com/?page=viewℑ=/emperor/gameplay/HarkonnenAmbush_Big.jpg

You will see an Ordos flame tank attacking on Harkonnen troops. By how much we know about the units from the game, flame tanks seem to be a Harkonnen-only weapon. It was probably a former Harkonnen unit before been "deviated" by the Ordos.
