Six sub houses

[Dunenewt]

I think it is possible to have six subhouses by changing the option to have no subhouses into a subhouse

[Inoculator9]

That's an interesting idea, but I don't think you can units to a new subhouse without removing one. It may be possible though.

[Apollyon]

I think the "no subhouse" option is hardcoded much like the random option. I dont think It is actually mentioned in the rules.txt.

[nemafakei]

It's InvalidHouse in the rules, isn't it?

[Apollyon]

[HouseTypes]

Atreides

Ordos

Harkonnen

Ix

Tleilaxu

Fremen

Imperial //same as Sardaukar

Guild

Incidental //these are the story characters  

apparently not

shame tho.

[govarox]

that would be a cool idea, but i don't think it would work.

[Apollyon]

like i said it wont

shame

however it would be even better if we could have an extra major house.

If only we had the source code.

yea like thats ever gonna happen...

[Dunenewt]

Can't we use incidental then?

[Apollyon]

well in theory yes but it is impossible to select incidental from the starting screen.

[Dunenewt]

Yet

[Apollyon]

Yet

meaning what exactly?

[nemafakei]

He wants to hack the UI code.

[Apollyon]

really?

doesnt seem to be a particularly viable option IMO.

Maybe we should just hold IG to ransome and demand the source code =)

[nemafakei]

That's even less viable. I don't THINK you can get to it from what I have seen of the UI code, but it might be possible, given some imagination.

[Apollyon]

well, good luck to anyone who tries.

[guusr5644]

mm maybe there is a secret art that points like this:

Atreides = atreides_simbole.xbf

and that xbf above will be directed to the color stuff like the inf xbf points into =G_infantry_256.tga

any ideas?

[Apollyon]

I dont think I quite understand.

But if I do then in short I'm pretty certain that that is not the case.
