Dune: War for Arrakis
The desert-covered planet of Arrakis seems inhospitable and barren. Yet here is the most valuable commodity in the universe: a spice called melange. Without it, space travel would be impossible and humans would become castaways living on isolated planets. In the asymmetric strategy board game Dune: The War for Arrakis puts you in the middle of a war in which the Harkonnen and Atreides are fighting for control of the desert planet and its valuable resources. Whose side will you take? The epic battle atmosphere is enhanced by original illustrated cards and more than 100 detailed plastic figures. You can look forward to everything you would expect from a Dune game - desert freemen, imperial Sardaukars or spice harvesters. Dune: Controlled by cards and action dice, War of Arrakis will bring you an unforgettable wargame experience that can be enjoyed in 1 to 4 players. One game can be played in approximately 2 to 3 hours. The War of Arrakis is not to be missed by any fan of the world-famous novel Dune or its film adaptation of the same name.

Who will gain dominion over Arrakis?
Dune: War for Arrakis is a spectacular board game from the creators of the equally spectacular War for the Ring. In the game, you are in the setting of the Desert War on the planet Arrakis, where a battle for dominance over a planet with a very rare spice is raging. The planet is now ruled by the treacherous House Harkonnen, who need to maintain their position at all costs to avoid losing the support of the powers within the Empire. But Paul and Jessica of the Atreides do not give up and, with the support of the native Fremen tribe, try to defeat the Harkonnens. Each House relies on a different strategy in battle based on unique Commanders and Planning Cards, and tries to achieve their own conditions for victory. With action dice and a large number of event cards, each game will play out differently. Will you saddle up the giant sand worms and go to war on the side of House Atreides, or will you defend the position of House Harkonnen? Only one can emerge victorious from this war.
