Sandworms too weak

[Dunenewt]

Is it just me or r sandworms no longer as hard to kill as they were in Dune2/2k

I think they should be a bit harder to kill

[nampigai]

In my opinion Shai-hulud should be impossible to kill.

[Vanguard3000]

Well, I don't think impossible would do.  But EXTREMELY hard would be best.  Leto II was only mostly worm, and he was almost invincible to anything but sustained lasgun fire (and water, of course).

[nemafakei]

Sandworms aren't killed, they just are driven away by excessive damage.  

[exatreide]

They were killed in the prequles. But i think it should be alot harder to kill them aswell.

[alphabeta4000]

water guns fire!

[nampigai]

lol an entire platoon with nothing but super soakers ;D

[exatreide]

It would work just make sure there gaurded water pistils dont do much against saudukar.

[nampigai]

no you got a point, well throw in some snipers, If you kill every worm in the game there, wont be anything worth fighting for in the game.

[gunner154]

sandworms are weak against water?

[FalcoWolf]

read the first dune book... they kill worms by drowning them 2 make the water of life

[nampigai]

Also Leto II developes a dislike towards water

[alphabeta4000]

a fear of pain from it except for spice water

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

Leto II killed by watter-squirting brats!

[exatreide]

I ca see the headlines already.

"LETTO THE GOD EMPEROR KILLED BY SLIPPING AND FALLING INTO A PUDDLE."

[nemafakei]

Here we go again...

Anyway, imagine the cost for a 400m sandworm. That's a small lake's worth; on Arrakis, that's a hell of a lot of money. For each worm.

[Timenn]

it's something bothering me, why don't worms die form the water of the people they swallow, or is it that they can survive a little bit of water

[nampigai]

I could tell you but then I would have to kill you ;D

No, you got a point there ???

[Vanguard3000]

The amount of water in one human being (or two, or twenty-six) probably isn't enough to seriously harm a massive worm (read Mr. Fakei's last post).  Also, the worms have some type of chemical reaction constantly burning in their gizzards (is that the correct term?  My worm anatomy isn't as good as it was two years ago), so that may have something to do with it.

[nampigai]

Hmmmm I don't really know how much water u have to use to kill a worm, when the kill the little makers in the series the fill up a pool so maybe your right maybe they do need a larger amount of water.

[daniel]

in the prequel they kille donw with like 80 tonnes of dynamite but ut dinttn realli die butwas blown apart and to rseite capture it kinda killed itslef.

how did leto 2 die anywaz???

and does DUNCAN EVER DIE!?!?!?!?!?

[nampigai]

lol I don't get a thing of what your saying loki

[nampigai]

Duncan dies all the time, but is resurected as  gohlas, as for Leto I can only say read the books ;)

[alphabeta4000]

technically yes he just is remade all the time

[Vanguard3000]

Feyd:  

[small spoiler] Also, in GEoD, the God Emperor isn't killed when it rains on him in the Sareer.  He is only subjected to pain beyond pain.  ;)
