Description:

This is a strategy game based loosely on the Dune universe.
You do not require an extensive knowledge of any of the books (although
this can help), and most of the material from the first Dune book or the
prequels can be used
Set in 10101 A.G., this game takes place many decades before the events of
the first book in the original Dune series, and allows players to take
control of characters responsible for directing the affairs of a Great
House. The emphasis of the game is on intrigue and negotiation. Spies and
assassins are the preferred weapons of choice, and military force is used
primarily as a last resort.

We have been playing for almost 3 years, but we need to cover a few
vacancies. You will control a Great House with its history and power. As
the new ruler of the house you will have to deal with its future history,
although some plots have started before you became the leader.
