It´s been more than three months since our last update, but much has been done behind the scenes in the meantime. Since then, two new members have joined our team: Kasian is now the second Mapper in our team, making sure that the battlefields are both aesthetically and tactically pleasing; Cynish contributes with his skills as a modeler, mostly taking care of the Atreides´ models.

Speaking of which, Cynish already has finished several models, the first one being an Atreides Quad.

Serving in the role of a classic scout, the Quad combines excellent mobility with adequate anti-infantry weapons making it the first choice for reconnaissance and quick strikes on unarmored enemy formations. This comes at the cost of light armor however, making the Quad vulnerable to Tanks and all kinds of anti-vehicle weaponry.

As always, the model is based on a Concept made by gntlemanartist who re-envisioned the classic Dune 2/Dune 2k unit:

Now on to some self-adulation: Gaming magazine PC Gamer UK recently published an article about our mod, shedding some light on the great vision and sinister plans we have for this project. It features some information never released before, so make sure to check it out.

Now you´ll probably be wondering "3 months and that´s all they have to show?". Well, the answer to this question is sort of a "yes" - for now. We´re planning to make an adequate (read: BIG!) update in about one to two weeks from now, so stay tuned.
