Welcome back on Arrakis, Commander!
We from Thundermods.net announce one of our mods, Dune: Arrakian Wars (DAW for short), which will bring you back onto the desert planet 'Dune'. Based on the last game of the Dune universe 'Emperor - Battle for Dune', DAW will bring back the Dune feeling to your screens, featured with high-end graphics, new gameplay elements and the original music from Emperor.
DAW will feature all three main houses, Atreides, Harkonnen and Ordos and also feature the five famous subhouses Fremen, Guild, Ix, Sardaukar, and Tleilaxu, which will unlike Emperor not chosen until you're ingame.
This and other Gameplay changes will allow DAW to differ from Emperor but also create the good old Dune-feeling.

Maan! This looks great,.. Absolutely cant wait to play this. I hope youre gonna do it really detailed, as much as the engine allows u so it would be as close to emperor as possible. But, couldnt you make at least some units look more like from Dune 2000? I didin really like all the mechs in emperor bfd. They were not bad,... but surely many fans would love to see the models from Dune 2000 remade in 3D.. at least sonic tank, combat tank and siege tank. Also, will there be music from emperor in the mod? Or, even better, music from Dune 2000? I know it is possible to download that music in mp3 from the net and if it was possible to somehow make it play in the mod... oh, just too cool to imagine :)) And couldnt u give us some alpha version or something like that for trying? As a big dune fan I really, really cant wait to see this thing... It's Dune! Just, please, keep going and finish it, it would be so sad to not see this finished.
I don't think that we'll ever release an alpha version, since bad bugs and balancing can get people angry so they stop supporting us. But what we'll be doing is release the mod in three different full version stages. First stage will include most/all units and buildings of emperor and some new balancing. Second stage will implement special abilities and powers, unit upgrades and other things. The final stage 3 will include the singleplayer mode and other stuff.
We may include some units from other games, replace some existing units or even change some unit designs while getting from stage 1 to stage 3, but as I said, most of the things will be from emperor.
Music from emperor is already included. We can use it since Emperor was from EA/Westwood(?), so there won't be any problem about using the music. I'm not sure about Dune 2000, so no music from it at this time.
Will we get that worm?
you will definitely get some worms! ^^
we are working on this too to find a solution, but atm we are focused on other things. but i think it should not be a problem to get sand storms, we have a few ideas an our list to try.
What about sand storms? Can you have storms similar to the ones in Emperor implemented or will the engine not allow it?
That is good.. bravo it looks great and its brilliant to see that even though dune is the the past and won't see any new releases its still great to see that its still inspirational
Very Nice , keep it up :D
Glad sombody still loves the dune games, it seems the companys have given up on them. this is lookin to be a good mod, good job guys
Gotta love the Dune universe, although i would have thought it to be even even more cool (personally) to remake Dune 2 or to create a brand new game. In either case it looks good tho and ill def. have a look once a while. :) gl guys.
