If the units were based on real life vehicles...

[Dunenewt]

I give to you the Trike:

It is called a Carver, made by a Dutch company.  Does anyone have any more ideas for these?

[MrFlibble]

It looks more like this:

Something between the Trike and Nod Recon Bike ;)

[D2k Sardaukar]

The Harkonnen Missle?

[Dunenewt]

P1000 experimental tank designed by Nazi Germany.

Devastator

[D2k Sardaukar]

Another Trike?

The Quad

The Carryall

Harvester?

[Dunenewt]

They're all good, but a trike has to have 3 wheels.

true true, but it was too nice to skip, hehe

Trooper or Rocket turret

missle launcher

Missile Tank:

[D2k Sardaukar]

it doesn't show up dunenewt

[Dunenewt]

I'm using a different image now.

[MrFlibble]

Honestly, none of the images look too much like their proposed Dune equivalents in my opinion.

[Dunenewt]

They're the closest real life equivalents, could you find any better?

[MrFlibble]

Umm... what for? Dune units are entirely fictional, even though some of them bear a certain degree of resemblance to some real-life vehicles. With the obvious exclusions of the Harvester (taken from the movie, which, in turn, followed the description in the book) and the Carryall (designed by the Dune II dev team , since the carryalls from Lynch's Dune looks like a flying toppled wardrobe garbage container with ropes extending from it :P). Oh, and the 'thopter, too, is entirely fictional.

[D2k Sardaukar]

Taadaaa...

Well, MrFibble, I think Dunenewt will find it okay If you (only you) can find fictional images that beer a bigger degree of resemblance with Dune 2000 units/buildings than real life vehicles.

[MrFlibble]

Let me be nitpicky (I'm in that mood now :D):

images that beer a bigger degree of resemblance

[homersimpson]Mmmhh... Beer...[/homersimpson]

Seriously, though, the only objection I can make that this one is clearly a toy, not a vehicle. Besides, it seems to be a toy ornithopter (from Dune), not a toy model of a real-life aircraft that resembles an ornithopter.

[D2k Sardaukar]

haha, the firefox spell checker doesn't catch those mistakes...

the toy was a joke, perhaps this is better:

(Leonardo da Vinci)

(real one)

[MrFlibble]

Does the real one flap its wings to fly? I've read somewhere that this is not effective or something...

[Megashrap]

The buggy posted is an exact vehicle in BF2. Nice pics.

[MrFlibble]

Isn't that the Desert Patrol Vehicle? The Nod Buggy from C&C:TD is also based off it.

[Dunenewt]

Siege Tank:

[D2k Sardaukar]

Infantry?

[MrFlibble]

Um, the modern military outfits look nothing like the infantry armor and powersuits in Dune2k:

[D2k Sardaukar]

Yeah, they should look like that, like in the intro (and building list), but in the game they more look like normal soldiers.

[MrFlibble]

They look like somebody was very lazy and simply used the hi-res versions of C&C infantry in Dune2000. Or maybe it was done on purpose, to show that these games are from the same "brand"..?
