Watched SU&SD review yesterday which totally turned me on to this game. Just bought it! So excited! Now trying to figure it out :)

Nice intro video. Looking forward to the follow up. One suggestion, More shots of the relevant components rather than the narrator.

Took us a while to pick up - but we love it!

@Cameron, I notice there is a poster with the cover art for the game behind you. Is that available for purchase anywhere? I would love to buy a copy, as I think the cover looks awesome, and I've been looking for some Dune-related art to put up on the wall.

In a 2 player game involving Harkonnen faction how can they hold 4 traitors???

Expansions for Spartacus 2nd Ed. when???

[archis]

If you deal each player 4 traitor cards and you put donw 3 ofthem, you can be sure that those 3 wont be in the game and it would make sance you put your own hero down. Is it not better that one player chooses from 4 leaders, then the disragarded cards are put back into the deck. Then second player has 4 cards from the deck and so on?

Will there be a video/segment clarifying the use of Karama cards to "cancel opponent Advanteges"? The published rulebook unfortunately seems to be very vague on the specifics (Does canceling the emperor/guild getting spice lasts the whole phase? How would canceling bene gesserit advisors look like?)

[gondor]

Do both treachery and traitor cards count towards hand limit?

[erics]

Got one extra player token for each faction...

[morcar]

Will there be a German version of the game?

"First, you place the board on the table."





*what else are you going to do with it*

[swhellweg]

When can we expect some actual game play instruction?

[e.j.haeser]

So...what’s the game about??? What’s the goal, a generic overview, how to win? I know there are more videos, but in the first two vids, nothing is said about the game itself. Confuses me.

He's super handsome. Only reason I'm buying. (I might love Dune, too...)
