What happens if you pick a traitor card that belongs to the same faction you're in? Just a way to make sure that character isn't used as a traitor? Are you required to pick an opponents character as traitor card over one of your own if you're given a selection of cards that includes both options?

[ericlazure]

your example (by giving the haarkonen 7 spice immediately after he kills the fremen leader) seems to imply the killer gets the spice... you should first determine the battle outcome to see who is the winner since the winner gets the spice from dead leaders, even their own

[Tennouseijin]

If you lose a fight but your leader survives, can they be used again in the same turn? In the video you only mention that happens to the winning player.

Do stared forces give you an additional force
I.e. empire use one stared force and 2 normal count as 0-3 or 0-4 in the battle wheel choice.

Don't get it. If I put some troops from my reserve in a citadel where another player has troops already here...is there a combat ?

1st: but in all seriousness this looks awesome! I can't wait to play it.

Seems like a huge step backwards from Rex.
