So, apparently the re-release of the old Dune tabletop game is complete(?) https://twitter.com/RestorationGame/status/1138844125942493184 https://twitter.com/SecretsOfDune/status/1139175071413616645

i hope they mark all the brian related cards with a little robot skull or something so you can toss them out easily. then they can truthfully claim to have it included and also advertise "multiple exciting ways to play"

I was excited about this but that mat board thing looks awful. It even looks like it has instructions printed on the mat where the cards are standing upright.

I'd be really surprised if the mat comes with the game, i'm sure it's for event demos as the photos are from origins.

Unless the owners of the license decided to use internet crowdsourced art, because that's the same art I printed off years ago to supplement my old set of that game and it's just one of many open-sourced custom reworks, none of them official.

I think they did licence it, based on what the boardgames thread is saying about it.

On a reread it really does stick out that they only ever know him as Kynes. Nobody bothered to find out his first name!? That wasn't part of the briefing for the banquet? Or their flight with him to see the spice harvesting? drat sloppy!

Hawat’s report set Leto up to expect Kynes to have “gone native”, so Leto treats him like a Fremen and doesn’t go looking for another name. It’s not like Stilgar introduces himself as Bob Stilgar.

True, but even then you'd think the first draft dossier they built on him (before even moving to Arrakis) would lean on official records re: his status as Imperial Planetologist and Judge of the Change. I can't imagine Imperial writs or whatever would leave out an Imperial agent's first name. I think it's one of those reveals the reader is supposed to figure out before the characters, but that still would have worked with Liet being a secret or Fremen-only name.

Is Liet his actual first name? I thought it was a Fremen title or something.

yeah, I think Liet is his sietch name. He wouldn't tell it to outsiders. Although the Emperor might know about it, since he's supposed to be a contact to the Fremen.

It's hyphenated Liet-Kynes throughout the book. So it's definitely at least a sietch name, especially considering he's named for the Fremen who spared his father, Uliet. It's possible his "official" first name is something else, but it's never given. His father was Pardot Kynes. For imperial purposes the son can't just be Kynes. Dr. Liet Kynes, imperial planetologist, and Liet-Kynes, Fremen leader, would make sense but it makes our characters fools. Dr. Bob Kynes fixes that, at the expense of Pardot's having gone native and apparently only ever giving his son a Fremen name: Dune Appendix I posted:A direct and simple man in many ways, Pardot Kynes. One must evade Harkonnen restrictions? Excellent. Then one marries a Fremen woman. When she gives you a Fremen son, you begin with him, with Liet-Kynes, and the other children, teaching them ecological literacy [...] Wanna see that application
