Hello! I am from Kazakhstan, English is not my native language, but I am understand 99% what your speaking it's really help. I got this Dune from a Kickstarter few weeks ago. Happy with it and want to learn how it's play. And lucky I found in UA-cam your video and want to say Thank you, your got a talent. Want to say, your camera is good, all text in cards readable.
CHOAM stands for “Combine Honnete Ober Advancer Mercantiles.” The name uses an amalgamation of several old Earth languages and roughly translates to, “Honorable Union for the Advancement of Greater Trade.” It is a galactic corporation which holds a monopoly over all commerce throughout the imperium. Thanks for the video 😊
This one is epic too, gets more often on the table then War of the Ring and Dune is my fav sci-fi movie(the old 1984 one) and like I said WOTR is my fav game so Dune: War for Arrakis has quickly become my most played game this year and surely for months and years to come.Thanks for the vid man ++
Yeah… it balances the dice amounth difference! So each factions have same amounth of actions, no matter if they use bene generis tokens or not. There allways will be a balance!
Really great how-to play video. I saw the original Kickstarter and didn't back it due to expectations it would just be War of the Ring reskinned, but this game is significantly more streamlined. Managed to pick up a Carryall package from a game shop, very much looking forward to playing it.
@boardgamestuff sometimes it's good to be bad ! But I have to admit, Harkonnen have the advantage on the length. Their army are unlimited by opposition to the Fremen... when they lose an unit, this unit is lost for good... unless you're playing with the extensions Smugglers and Space Guild. Anyway, I never won with the Fremen/Atreides like in the movie...
Amazing teach :) One little thing - on the "The spice must flow" board - doesn´t a ban only become activated on the lowest tier, and on the other tiers you lose a die instead?
No, any marker that is at the bottom causes a ban for that marker to activate. If any markers are not at the bottom but 1 or more moved down, then from among those that moved down you must choose 1 to activate a ban on, even if it isn't at the bottom. See Imperium Bans on page 21 of the rulebook. I hope that makes sense.
@@tcp1623 It is a bit confusing. And of course, you do lose dice in Phase 1 as you mentioned. The active row is the row with the lowest Imperium marker and the Harkonnen player has to place a die on the active row and each row above it.
Yes, with a strategy action you can move a legion whether or not it contains a leader. However, with a leadership action you can only move a legion if it contains a leader.
Some named leaders are in play at the start of the game. Others enter play when a condition is met, such a token reaching a required spot on the Prescience track or Supremacy track. Then their cards are put in play, but their figures can't be placed on the map until they are deployed using an action or card.
@@lancesboardgamestuff Please tell me, if an attacker makes a surprise attack with 6 units, he rolls 6 dice + 1 a special effect is added. Or is 1 cube placed on the edge of a special effect, and 5 cubes are rolls?
There are two spots on the Supremacy track. Spaces 4 and 7 I think. When those spaces are reached the Atreides player gets another Bene Gesserit token. The Harkonnen player receives 1 token when Gaius Helen Mohiam enters play. They can gain another when the Carrino Ally Breeding Program Planning card is played.
They can attack the adjacent inner area. So, if the Splintered Rock atomic is used then that becomes a desert area and the adjacent Hagga Basin is exposed to attacks from Coriolis Storms and Sandworms. If the Hole in the Rock atomic is used, then the adjacent Imperial Basin area is exposed to attacks from Coriolis Storms and Sandworms. If the Rimwall West atomic is used, then the Imperial Basin and Arrakeen adjacent areas are exposed to attacks from Coriolis Storms and Sandworms.
@@lancesboardgamestuff I think I found it retail in Europe for €133,50. That would be insane if most of the components are just cardboard. Imagine War of the Ring with cardboard armies.
@@Joecuts That could be a Kickstarter copy that the store purchased and is reselling. I looked on CMON's website and it didn't look like they were selling a retail version yet. If you are interested in it, contact the store and ask them if it is a Kickstarter copy.

Thanks for the video 😊
Thanks for the info!
Thanks dude, this is the only explanation of the game that I actually understood. And the gameplay example at the end was helpful too.
Thank you so much! That was my first Super Thanks. I’m glad you found the video helpful!

I'm supposed to play this one the same weekend I play WOTR in June. Really looking forward to a great gaming weekend in mid-June.
Great tutorial! The best one I found on UA-cam. Thanks! You need to do one for War of the Ring 2nd Edition too :)"
Thank you. I do plan on doing a War of the Ring video at some point.
Great job! Convinced me to get the game
I hope you enjoy it!
Thank you so much for your very complete tutorial… 😊
You are welcome. Enjoy the game!
Nice job! I brought this out and learned it last week. I would have definitely refer this video. 👍
You should add more time codes!
Thanks. I will think about adding more time codes. Enjoy the game!
thank you for explaining and showing an example turn!
You are welcome. I'm glad you found it helpful.
Thank you very much. Fielieng, that my friend teached me this game. Great JOB! I have to grab this game! 🙏🏼❤️
I'm glad you liked the video. Have fun gaming!
2:00:00 I didn’t realize that the Atreides player could perform more than one desert action! That makes so much more sense to me 👍
Yes, as long as they have fewer dice left than the Harkkonen player.
Yeah… it balances the dice amounth difference! So each factions have same amounth of actions, no matter if they use bene generis tokens or not. There allways will be a balance!

thanks for the vid ! For the Baron !
haha...I guess I know which side you'll be playing.

@@thierrymeury1352 I have the expansions but have not tried them yet. I hope to play against someone other than myself soon.
@@lancesboardgamestuff yeah you're right, the Madhi Solo sucks...

@@lancesboardgamestuff - Thanks, don´t know how I ended up with my version.
@@tcp1623 It is a bit confusing. And of course, you do lose dice in Phase 1 as you mentioned. The active row is the row with the lowest Imperium marker and the Harkonnen player has to place a die on the active row and each row above it.
at 2:01:00 you move a legion with a leader, while you only take a legion action, is that allowed?
Yes, with a strategy action you can move a legion whether or not it contains a leader. However, with a leadership action you can only move a legion if it contains a leader.
Can you only play named leader cards if their figure is on the mat?
Some named leaders are in play at the start of the game. Others enter play when a condition is met, such a token reaching a required spot on the Prescience track or Supremacy track.
Then their cards are put in play, but their figures can't be placed on the map until they are deployed using an action or card.
Great! Thanks from Russia )
You are welcome.

@@user-pj3gz7yz2j Yes, 6 dice + 1 special result is added.
👍🙏
😁
how do you get more Bene Geserit tokens?

The Harkonnen player receives 1 token when Gaius Helen Mohiam enters play. They can gain another when the Carrino Ally Breeding Program Planning card is played.
When atomics have been deployed can worms attack the inner area?
They can attack the adjacent inner area. So, if the Splintered Rock atomic is used then that becomes a desert area and the adjacent Hagga Basin is exposed to attacks from Coriolis Storms and Sandworms. If the Hole in the Rock atomic is used, then the adjacent Imperial Basin area is exposed to attacks from Coriolis Storms and Sandworms. If the Rimwall West atomic is used, then the Imperial Basin and Arrakeen adjacent areas are exposed to attacks from Coriolis Storms and Sandworms.
Yep and the harkonnens shits their pants when it happens cause their end is near 😂
Those plastic tokens of the settlements should be mandatory in the box for that price.
If the retail version does not have the plastic settlements included, I'm sure it will be less expensive than the Kickstarter was.

@@lancesboardgamestuffdude doesn't get the concept of Kickstart I guess. Though I do wish the retail version had them
@@Joecuts I found a retail copy for 115 euros - a few days later the prize rose to 133 - finally, a bit of luck :)
rules are all good! strategy though.... not the best :D
haha....You are probably right.
Just for reassurance, you are pronouncing everything correctly :P No need to be self conscious about it :)
haha...ok, thanks. I just know some people can be real sticklers about something they are a big fan of.
