 THE BATTLE BEGINS! BATTLE PLANS REVEALED! Harkonnen commit 4 troops to the battle, lead by lovely Feyd-Rautha (4+6 = 10) The Fremen commit 7 troops to the battle, lead by Jamis (7+2 = 9) Harkonnen unveil Chaumas and a Poison Snooper!   Fremen unveil La La la!  Jamis is killed by Chaumas! Fremen Strength reduced to 7! Harkonnen 10 defeats Fremen 7.  Harkonnen send 4 forces from the Broken lands to the Teilaxu Tanks! Fremen send 8 forces & Jamis to the Teilaxu Tanks! Harkonnen receive 2 spice from Jamis Corpse! HARKONNEN SPECIAL ADVANTAGE ACTIVATES, ProfFrink, please let me know if you wish to take a hostage (I'm assuming yes) Harkonnen are now left in the broken land with their mortal enemies, the Atredies. AND THE FORMS OF KANLY, MUST BE OBEYED!  Atredies: You may ask the Harkonnen player 1 question regarding their battle plan! There is a 24 hour period before I will accept a battle plan Battle will be resolved when I receive both battle plans and at least a day has passed to allow other players a chance to use Treachery Cards if desired.

Well, there's still a half eaten spice muffin that I was planning on offering your commander. As a token of peace and good will. Chaumas The last guy to try it said it was....to die for! And questions about my special. Do I get to capture a leader from the Fremen prior to this battle? If so, I'd like to know who I've got before I decide on a battle plan.

I have processed Turn 2 but will not post it as something is happening I'm not sure on the rules for: The Spice Blow is spawning in a sector under the storm. Does it spawn the spice or not? The rules would seem to say the storm destroys spice it moves over, but not a blow under it. I am leaning to it destroying the spice.

TURN 2 Storm Phase THE STORM MOVES 5 SECTORS! Storm deck is shuffled! Storm information sent to Fremen Player! Spice Phase! Top card of the Spice deck is revealed:  A SANDWORM APPEARS IN THE FUNERAL PLAIN! All spice is destroyed on the territory! THE FREMEN RIDE THE WORM!  Another card is turned over SECOND WORM CARD FREMEN PLAYER MAY CAUSE A WORM TO APPEAR IN ANY TERRITORY THEY WISH Next card is flipped for first blow:  8 Spice appear in the Red Chasm! Red Chasm is under a storm NO SPICE IS PLACED NEXUS PHASE! All players may now negotiate and form alliances! You may only ally one other player. Alliances will need 4 strongholds to win control of Dune. Alliance Powers granted by factions are: Atredies - Atredies may assist an ally by forcing an enemy to reveal one part of their battle plan (Weapon, Defense, Leadrer or Wheel setting) Bene Gesserit - May use the Voice for their allies battles Emperor - He's rich and can give you money. Fremen - Allies are not devoured by Worms. If the Fremen victory condition is satisfied on turn 10, you will win with the Fremen Guild - Allies to the guild pay 1/2 price to ship units to Dune, like the Guild do. You will also win with the Guild on turn 10 with their special victor condition Harkonnen - May use their traitors to defeat your opponents in battles. I'll Allow up until 12 AM Wednesday UTC for alliances to form. Please do as much negotiating and and bickering as possible in the thread, for the Landsraad (Spectators) benefit Once you have a solid Alliance, both of you must declare in bold that you are allied with each other! Let Negotiations Commence

Correct. I think it's to avoid timings problems if you want to break an alliance, since the nexus happens after the spice blow has fully resolved. It's important to note that the Fremen's special explicitly says that the riders ride Shai-Hulud after the Nexus. Under the same "the game can be a bastard", the Fremen special victory makes no allowances for allies. It states that nobody but Fremen may control Sietch Tabr and Habbana Ridge; allies there absolutely gently caress over the special victory. Although there's one more advantage to a Fremen alliance, in that Fremen may also grant fully free revivals (to the standard maximum of three), if they so wish. E: the Emperor grants another actual advantage, beyond "my ally can auto-win treachery bids for free". His ally can revive up to 6 forces per turn, instead of three; I think the Fedaykin limit still apllies though. E2: technically it's the Emperor that pays for the extra three revivals.

Truly, it is a sorrowful occasion, but we must recognize that the breach of Our peace has already occurred. The most important thing now is to keep the spice flowing, lest CHOAM collapse and impecuniate the Houses.  The Imperial Presence will ally with House Harkonnen until stability can be established.

The OP requested both players to bold their declaration of Alliance. Apart from that it should be obvious how this alliance is meant to work. Harkonnens love treachery. They absolutely love free treachery. The extra revivals never hurt. The Emperor, meanwhile, gets some extra traitors while the alliance holds.

There are currently two alliances: Harkonnen & Emperor Atredies & Bene Gesserit Both of these types of alliances are nightmares to deal with if Im honest, The Guild and the Fremen are currently not allied.

What say you, Spacing Guild? Shall we join forces to keep the peace on Dune? We have many ways to keep your fighters away from harm, and while we have little need for your transport ships, it is in our joint interests to prevent these invaders from controlling the flow of spice.

 RE: re: re: ALLIANCE WITH FREEMEN Acceptable. We've initiated a cultural outreach workstream and drafted some MoUs for them to sign or, idk fingerprint if they're not big on pens. This is very exciting and we're looking forward to establishing strategic synergies on the sandface, in particular the app we discussed for worm attracting/distracting (Thumpr) Best, Tuek

Alliance accepted. The Fremen will ride the Shai-Hulud to the Hagga Basin, in the westmost sector (with the spice icon). Dune is a dangerous and unpredictable planet. The second sandworm arises in the Broken Land.

Spice Phase continues with second card! sigh The Fremen can send a worm to a chosen area of the map... again. I swear I shuffled the deck, and by that I mean I used the randomize cells on google drive Next Actions Phelddagrif - Choose where Shai-Hulud Will go next! (Technically there is another nexus phase, but I'm just going to veto that. One Nexus phase per turn is slow enough)
