My groups has been playing Dune GF9 for a few years, and we are a little tired of the end game where a single alliance dominates the board. Also, I don't think there has ever been a single betrayal.

Has anyone tried playing with no alliances allowed or tried using nexus cards? Is it worth it?

Hello, I just wanted to ask about the Spacing Guilds flexible ability to ship troops. So I know they have 3 options, one of them being to ship from off to on as normal. though do they also have to pay spice to use the other two? I played a game and my friend shipped large quantities of troops from city to city and we weren’t sure if he would’ve had to pay each time or not.

I’ve been printing, cutting, and organizing components to get a play of Dune the Dice Game (also known as The Dice Must Flow). I’ve printed the most recent version (5.041 I think it was called). Hoping to hear how everyone likes it before I commit my friends to a game night, since getting together happens rarely (6 times per year) and I don’t want to spend 90-120 of our precious minutes on a game unless it has a good chance of being a hit. (Link to BGG page; I'm not affiliated with this game in any way.)

If the game is great, any reason why it remains a PnP and hasn’t been taken up by a publisher with Dune IP?

Hey yall I’ve lost my chani leader token (so sad I know), Ive been looking online to find the individual token but I haven’t been able find anything anywhere. I was hoping someone could provide a link to somewhere I can acquire the individual token.

Since I lost it I’ve been using a blank token that came with the game in her place. I’ve been looking for an image of the player token online so I can print it and glue it the blank but I also can’t find that anywhere. If someone has an image of the token that would also be great help!

Good gaming everyone!

Hosting my second play through tomorrow!

Yes, I’d like to be a good host… but have my guests drink refreshments while playing???

tsk tsk 🙅‍♀️

How much should I charge in the games currency for people to drink water? Or what other mechanic might help a sort of “being parched in the desert” roleplay during the game?

Hello again, I heard that the shai hulud movement in the nexus phase can go anywhere, even in non sand territory, but I can't find that specification again, can you help with some clarifications?

Watching videos, reading rules and preparing teaching my group (4)

Any recommendations that could enhance the experience or is the base/core good enough?

I read for 4 players to leave out spacing guild and BG.

Any house rules that improve the game?

I want to introduce a house rule for the advanced game, Harkonnen karama ability. It happened to me too many times to be stolen from all of my cards when they were so hard to obtain, and I propose that the Harkonnen karama ability can only take 3 cards max. What do you think?

I should mention that we already play with the Muligan rule for them, so I'm not killing the faction in terms of balancing
