Credit to u/jbauer777 and his gaming group for their extreme dedication.
I want to be friends with the Harkonnen guy. That’s commitment.
I love how the guy next to him is "just Dan"
Probably a face dancer.
The dice must roll.
UUUUUHM ACKCHUALLY relentlessly pushes up glasses the classic dune boardgame has no dice in it ;)
Thats dedication
I inherited from my brother a really, really old edition of this Dune boardgame... the board looks familiar but the artwork appears updated. Wish mine was in better condition (smells a bit musty and the box is somewhat squashed, but otherwise intact).
I didn't know they re-issued it! Neat.
Gale Force 9 published the reprint/update in 2021 iirc. They also published two expansions for it. I have yet to play this version, but my Dune Fanatic gaming group where i used to live played it as often as we could.
The Ixians and Tliaxu expansion is pretty good, and even if you don’t play with the new factions at all the technology mechanic helps a lot, particularly for the fremen, who I always found need all the help they can get. YMMV of course, but my table loved it. The Ixians really change up the game too with their mobile fortress that counts as a victory point. And having the Tliaxu in a game means that you can barter for the resurrection of leaders early, which is another potential game changer. Pretty neat gameplay interactions.
I technically have the CHOAM/Richese expansion too, but haven’t actually had a chance to play with it yet. The game takes some real time investment to actually play…
There is even a remaster in the makings, the kwizats haderach edition.
Its really fun if you have the group for it
Hehehehehehe
That's great
