Emperor_of_Dune Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 Can you somehow play as the imperial side in Dune 2000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IxianMace Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 No, as far as I'm concerned, you can only play as 1 of the 3 houses in the campaigns or skirmish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Emperor Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 you could take over the imperial sardaukar barracks, Kinda looks like a pyramid. And produce large groups of sardaukar. But thats the most that you can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IxianMace Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 There is no Imperial Sarduakar barracks. What the yellow pyramid is, is the Emperor's Palace. To train Sarduakar, you need the Emperor's Palace, and any barracks. Unfortunately, capturing the Emperor's construction yard will not allow you to build his palace, even though it works with all the other houses. You always have to capture it.

Timenn Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 Imperial is just Harkonnen without Devastator and with Sardaukar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 The houses are all basically the same.Edit: Wow I posted on my birthday? Must have been a boring day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 The building styles and the combat tanks and the special tanks (and the trikes) are the only difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burseg_candor Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 hallluah for emperor!now there are differences for each house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 In the new patch you can train Sardaukars if you have a hi-tech factory and a barracks if you play as House Harkonnen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rheo Posted August 3, 2002 Share Posted August 3, 2002 well, i think it's funny how the harkonnen's sardaukars are more expensive but weaker than the emperor's ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Fett Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 I think its coz Sardaukars are alien tech for the Harks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Harkonnen won't spend so much time and resources in troops. While they can have good tanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Fett Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Mebbe coz they might need some escorts for their Devas(tators). I know ur thinking I'm presently the biggest ass who ever mailed any crap on this site, but what if the AI wanted the Devas to be able to attack in tip top shape, huh? I mean, If they send 5 devas, a couple of missile tanks will prove quite a nuisance, if they get attacked on the way. Sure, the Devas will win, but at the cost of probably half their armour. And since regenerating takes time, they'll probably reach half dead to the enemy base, where they'll be blown up by more Missile tanks. (Thats why I always keep squads of missile and seige tanx halfway between their base and mine).BTW, since this topic is about the emperor and his sardaukar, I wanted to know- why do sardaukar damage tanx when they are run over. In mass sard attax, I Sometimes lose a combat tank or two this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 Why should I think that?I don't know about the Sardaukar. I only build them once when I captured the Imperial Palace. I never built them with the patch. I never got the patch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Fett Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 I dont know, mebbe I thought you'd think that coz, well, u seem to be quite good at Dune and I thought , probably, u'd be thinking what I mentioned on top. I mean, nowadays, If u ask people something silly, U'd get ur ass licked. Not that there's any danger of that happening, we're on the net, and I don't think ur that sort of guy anyway, ( I read all those three pages of "OMG, U are all such Newbies"-DRFSimmsy), but it always pays to be cautious. Anyway, I like Sards. I've never worked with a patch, but when I do produce sards, they seem quite OK. Oh, btw, its said that sards choose the right weapon when told to attack. Well, why do they use guns against buildings? I mean, rockets are more effective.Cheerio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drahgoon Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 why do sardaukar damage tanx when they are run over. In mass sard attax, I Sometimes lose a combat tank or two this way.thats because they have mines on them and when you run them over, the mines detonate.

Boba Fett Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 Do it. You'll see that I don't speak sooth (atleast, not always)Use a missile tanks coz its got low armour. You could also use a seige tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
