Dune: A Game of Conquest and Diplomacy Review & How to Play | A Spicy War Game!

[@MenschWerdeWesentlich]

Setting the general necessity of the representation category aside as a matter of taste. Indirectly criticizing the amount of women per faction with reference to the film is just so nonsensical. Philomena Cunk on Marie Curie and Bruce Banner came to mind. Assuming you are interested in more than just meaningless numerical values and actually care about the portrayal and impact of women in the source material (and the game) (rather than just the movie, that actually turned the planetologist into a woman to no apparent benefit) you will realize that the arguably most important faction is all female and plays the other powers like their pawns. Complex and smart female characters play major and meaningful roles in Dune, why would you focus on the numbers?

I really dig how you review and explain games. That was incredible work. I will have to send you my game when I am done with it to shred it apart or not :D

Best summary of the game I've heard to date. Would've loved to watch a playthrough but thanks for this overview!

[@BlueTorchWeddings]

His Breakdown was incredible

[@salmanqaisar7377]

[@GLHFBoardGames]

Wow, what am underrated channel. So much effort, it's really impressive! Would have loved to have heard more about the difference's between this and the 2019 edition though. Still amazing job 👍

[@GLHFBoardGames]

Thanks so much, Tarmo! Glad to have you.

[@rmcdaniel2424]

Seriously under rated!

I have both version of gf9 dune. I like to call the new version baby dune and the older version adult dune. Baby dune gets my dune fix when I have time crunch and cant get a solid 5-6players to play adult dune. Adult dune is such a classic and so much fun once you understand everything. I feel like once you understand baby dune you can graduate to adult dune to wear the real fun is located at. You should do a playthrough of adult dune or baby dune

[@EightThreeEight]

I think calling it "Baby Dune" sells this game a bit short.

[@tabletopmischief]

Fantastic video!

Pedantic comment incoming: Crystal Gayle sang Don’t it make my Brown Eyes Blue! Also I feel the exact same way as you about this game!

[@GLHFBoardGames]

Oh shiiiiii...

[@derek_davidson]

You have some...interesting...criteria on your checklist

[@GLHFBoardGames]

Say more about that.

[@derek_davidson]

@@GLHFBoardGames I've never seen anyone rate a boardgame with representation and pronouns as criteria

[@GLHFBoardGames]

Glad to stick out in that regard!

[@rmcdaniel2424]

Yeah its a nice change. :)

[@nightbirdgames]

@@derek_davidson Probably for good reason, its not necessary. I've never seen anyone play a game or want to play a game and won't because of lack of representation. Pronouns...

[@jsibleytube]

Only proper rules vid for this game on YT. Thanks.

[@GLHFBoardGames]

Happy to make your holidays a little brighter. Or... Darker. Depending on how things ended up for you on Arrakis.

Just got this. It's a great game and easy to get to the table. I got extra baggies from other games to ensure it's not a mess. But the production for this game is a bit disappointing. The cards are paper thin. You'd need to sleeve this immediately.
