Step into the treacherous world of Arrakis, a seemingly desolate desert planet hiding the galaxy’s most coveted resource: Spice. Dune: War for Arrakis, an asymmetrical strategy board game, immerses players in the intricate power struggle for control over this barren landscape. Set against the backdrop of political intrigue, betrayal, and rebellion, the game delivers an epic experience where only one House will emerge victorious while the other fades into the desert sands.
The Backdrop:
Arrakis, a world seemingly dead and barren, is home to the most crucial resource in the galaxy – Spice. This substance is the key to space travel, and without it, humanity faces isolation on distant planets. The Emperor bestowed Arrakis upon House Atreides, but a conspiracy unfolded as House Harkonnen sought to overthrow them. Baron Harkonnen’s treasonous attack crushed the Atreides, leaving them ruled by an iron fist. However, the heirs to House Atreides, Paul and Jessica, are alive and mounting a rebellion with the aid of the mysterious Fremen, the inhabitants of Arrakis.
Gameplay Overview:
Dune: War for Arrakis introduces players to an asymmetrical strategy game where they must navigate the complexities of Arrakis. The objective is clear – control the planet and its precious Spice. Maneuver troops such as the formidable Fremen, the elite Fedaykin, and the fearsome Sardaukar, strategically placing them to gain an advantage.
Deep in the desert, players send Spice harvesters, risking encounters with the colossal Sandworms that roam the desolate expanses of Arrakis. The game’s action dice system, coupled with a variety of event cards, ensures each playthrough offers a unique storytelling experience. With these elements, players can reshape the Dune saga with every game, adding layers of replayability and excitement.
