mechadragon Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 In the mini Dune, the Fremen talk about paying the Guild in spice to prevent satellites from going over the polar caps.How did the Fremen contact the Guild to make the agreement, and why has the Emperor or Baron not become aware of the missing surveillance data concerning these regions?

Vanguard3000 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 The Fremen use ties with the fremen people of the cities, who contact smugglers, who give the Spice bribes to the Guild.Officially, the Guild does not put up weather/surveillance satellites because it would give too much of a tactical advantage to the occupant of the planet. Also, the Guild would not be willing to damage their only source of the Spice with weather control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 totally. Also, I part ways with how the transfer worked in the prequels. I think that as vanguard said, transfered from one group to another to another. Or transferred privately and not in the open desert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidu Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 Maybe the Fremen contacted the Guild through the Guild Banks in the cities. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 well they would have to disguise themselves in urban, well to do clothing, otherwise they would stick out like a soar thumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidu Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 So, what seems to be the problem? :O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_Worf Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Well, in the books, it has the Guild going to the Fremen after they sent an ambassador out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khan Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Only in the prequels though. It is unlikely though, that this is how it was sypposed to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
