Dune: War for Arrakis

Central Texas Board Game and Miniatures Posted on by

From the designers of the War of the Ring board game comes the thematic strategy board game Dune: War for Arrakis. Centered around the Desert War events from the acclaimed Dune novel by Frank Herbert, this universe and its iconic characters are brought to life for the first time with a myriad of amazing miniatures. The devious House Harkonnen, with the backing of imperial House Corrino, must battle the remnants of House Atreides, who are allied with the desert Fremen, for control of Arrakis and its most precious resource: the spice melange.

As war rages on, House Harkonnen must dominate Arrakis and keep the spice flowing, lest they lose the support of the great powers of the Imperium. Meanwhile, the young Atreides leader-turned-messiah, Paul-Muad’Dib, must wrestle with his prescient visions and find his path between the fate of Arrakis, the inexorable jihad, and the destiny of the Kwisatz Haderach.

This is still in production but I have assembled the painting examples for all the figures.

The cities of Thebes a Memphis are continuously under siege by the faithful, as well as, the political. To win the populous over, Gods are determined to focus their might and miracles upon the two great cities.

Lee (Osiris). Richard (Amun) and Steve (Isis) played. Initially, Osiris occupied the territory around Memphis  and gained additional token for his reinforcements. Osiris eventually, turned them into the control of two monuments. To counter this, Amun occupied Thebes neutralizing any of Osiris’ advantage.

Meanwhile, Isis took advantage of this stalemate by occupying as many territories as possible to gain a commanding lead in devolutions. But, every combat event saw Amun battling Osis and eliminating his figures. During the last few turn sequences, Amun surge in devotions, and on the last round just happened to have one more devotion than Osis.
