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.

Houses

Hello, we are yet again doing another double blog but things will return to normal next week.


Sand Trap

Battle for Dune's only infantry only map is finished! Apart from the textures, everything else is final and is the last time I do any major changes to it. All that will really change with the map are the textures and some hedgehogs for cover added at the bases.
