Set in the Dune universe, this mod turnes Emperor: Battle For Dune into a First/Third Person Shooter. More features are on the way, such as depleteable spice fields, capturable buildings and explorable vehicles.

Background

The Emperor is dead. The Guild has taken over the Spice production on Arrakis untill another great House claims it, three Houses remain after the long fighting on Arrakis. The noble Atreides, The evil Harkonnen and the insidious Ordos. All three houses are after control of Arrakis, for control of the Spice, for control of the Universe.

Hey and welcome to another BFD Blog, sorry it's alittle short!


Sandy Pass


I have had some time to work on Sandy Pass and things are coming along slowly but surely. With all the feed back from testers about the blockers on Arrakis maps being way too confusing, I have tried a new way of doing things, kinda the C&C Renegade way, but with a twist.

Here are some WIP shots, so not everything will be final.

Inkvine Catapult


As you know, ChAoS has been very hard at work rigging up and animating our Harkonnen Inkvine Catapult. Well today we have the reload animation, its not a long clip of it, but why would it need to be? It is still awesome, enjoy!


Well that's it from us at Battle for Dune, we hope you enjoyed the blog!
