Dune: The War for Arrakis

Dune: War for Arrakis is a strategic and thematic board game centered on the events of the Desert War described in Frank Herbert's famous novel Dune .
The infamous House Harkonnen – with the support of the imperial Corrino family – is engaged in a terrible battle with the remnants of House Atreides and its allies, the Sand Fremen, for control of Arrakis and its priceless resource: the spice melange.

In this gripping asymmetric game, House Harkonnen aims to conquer Arrakis with its troops and keep the spice flowing so as not to lose the support of the great powers of the Imperium.
Meanwhile, young Atreides Paul Muad'Dib – now messiah – must lead the Fremen rebels and fight against his own prescient visions, navigating the future of Arrakis, the relentless jihad, and the fate of the Kwisatz Haderach.

While the Harkonnens rely on their vehicles—such as ornithopters and transport wings—to move troops and avoid the dangers of the sands, the Atreides harness the power of the desert by riding colossal sandworms into battle. Each faction employs specific strategies to achieve its victory conditions, through unique commanders and distinctive planning cards.
