Dune Imperium Boardgame Strategy Guide - Atreides

Welcome to the Dune Imperium Boardgame with a look at the Atreides! Let’s look at the differences between Paul and Lato and get some tips on improving your first couple games with them!
“As a leader of one of the Great Houses of the Landsraad, raise your banner and marshal your forces and spies. War is coming, and at the center of the conflict is Arrakis - Dune, the desert planet.
Dune: Imperium uses deck-building to add a hidden-information angle to traditional worker placement.”

Hey Guys! drop a comment below as to what your favorite character is in the Dune Universe?

[@mikedon6915]

I am a huge fan of Gurney Hallech in the books. Can’t wait to see his portrayal in the new movie!

[@jamesgriff8427]

Gimme lady Jessica. Strong, powerful, determined the path for a lot of the major decisions in the book!

[@Ericobeasto13]

Important rule to note on Paul. Me and my friends played wronf a couple times before we looked up this rule…. If there are no cards available for you to look at, you do not get to shuffle your cards and then look.

[@QT5656]

Oh... Oops 😬 I'm half way through my first game I think I've done that at least once. However, I also forgot to pick up a foldspace card a few turns ago. 🙄

[@simonb4689]

About time! Thanks for making these, can't wait for the next one and mostly for the game to show up

[@LordoftheBoard]

It’ll come soon :) thank you for watching!

[@BillyIndiana]

Great series! I just got Dune this week & it was cool to hear the strategy for each house as we get ready to play this weekend!

[@JoeBear90]

Great video. Checked out the first half having just played my first game of Dune Imperium, where I played as Paul. I played him as a war monger and it didn’t end well, your tips are really interesting. All the best.

[@devinburgess3091]

Thanks for these videos. I definitely tend to go for those that seem the most complicated in strategy in games, but Paul has intrigued me since I read his ability. It’s super simple, but it definitely seems to award those who can plan for what’s going, which surprisingly sounds fun to me. I’m excited to try these two characters!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Yay sounds like it helped :) I appreciate you watching!

[@mikedon6915]

This was good, I am looking forward to the next in the series

[@LordoftheBoard]

Yay! I am glad you enjoyed :)

[@JoshSmith-on3yl]

Loving these videos! Truly can’t wait to get my copy!

[@LordoftheBoard]

I can’t wait either! What a great game!

Lord of the Board you ROCK! I am so proud of you!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thanks mom ❤️❤️

[@battlemode]

Cheers, thanks for the useful info!

[@mrbastos]

My copy just shipped, and this was on my recommendations.. thanks O' great algorithm. Really neat video, only makes me more excited for my copy to show up

[@LordoftheBoard]

Yay! Glad it helped! Be sure to watch the other two! ❤️ and I’m glad it was recommended to you!

[@Hertz80]

Was really looking forward to this upload! Awesome :)

[@LordoftheBoard]

Hopefully it did not disappoint! Thanks for watching!

[@caseypeterson5827]

Excited to get this game! Thanks for your thoughts. Leto sounds like my kind of character.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Leto is honestly extremely fun. Frees up a lot :)

[@baraka99]

Great tips. I need to watch your other Houses.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Hope you enjoy them :)

[@BuildswithAnna]

YES ! I live for this content 🤩💙

[@LordoftheBoard]

I show off a lot of cards in this one! :)

[@Jolezloba]

Good content, I hope your channel grows.

Thank you so much! Me too :)

Thank you :)

I love your overview and strategy tips

Thank you so much ❤️❤️

[@Tyler_Ruben05]

@@LordoftheBoard your welcome 🙏

[@kmontzka]

Thank you so much for this video! I have played the base game a few times solo and never had consistent results, much less unsure of which path to take. Mainly, I’ve played as Paul since it’s the introductory character. Thanks to your tips, I redeemed my last loss with resounding win by four points in the 8th round. I appreciate your clear tips and explanations as to why the recommended actions are important. Makes all the difference

[@LordoftheBoard]

You're very welcome!

[@peacelovehappy4001]

Great video! 💖💖

❤️ thank you :)

Great video - keep them coming!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Oh definitely! :) Thorvald house coming next week!

[@Choose2Connect]

@@LordoftheBoard awesome! I'm waiting for this boardgame as a gift on Dec 25th... the wait is killing me, but your videos are tiding me and my gaming group over until then.

[@LordoftheBoard]

@@Choose2Connect yay! Hope they end up helping you find enjoyment in all the characters the game has to offer and the many strategic paths you can pursue! It’s one of my new top games for sure

[@Choose2Connect]

@@LordoftheBoard that's great to hear. I'm getting the "too boardgames of 2020" vibe from several reviewers and payers. Have you gotten to play a lot of Dune Imperium yourself? Solo even?

[@LordoftheBoard]

@@Choose2Connect yes I have. I’ve played both solo, 2 and 3 player. Still haven’t played with a 4th. But it’s been excellent at every player count so far

[@ashwilliams6175]

What music did you use for the intro? It seems to fit well with the Dune vibe. Paul has always been my favorite in Dune, but there are so many other great characters as well. Glad to see many of them are in the game.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Oo i found it in epidemic sound. Ill have to look for it! i appreciate it! Yes Paul rocks in this!

[@joerountree2470]

I absolutely LOVE these videos, my partner and I found them super helpful when picking up this game. Although I cant overlook calling a pentagon a hexagon, but your videos are great so you get a pass lol

[@LordoftheBoard]

Haha appreciate the pass! And thankful you enjoyed these. I am revisiting imperium very soon. 🥰🔥

[@joerountree2470]

Sweet! We're picking that up soon so I look forward to your videos! @@LordoftheBoard

[@shawnpolluch3510]

I can’t wait for my copy with the upgraded units. This game is ripe for expansions.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Big agree! Also stoked for my minis :)

[@jasonexperience8970]

can you play a game with these leader to show your strategy with leto and paul?

[@Ilovetoplayjazz]

Can you make videos for the new leaders in the expansion? I think there’d be a lot of interest.

[@LordoftheBoard]

I need to play them more! but I def want too!

[@richayang]

Will you be doing strategy videos for Eclipse Second Dawn of the Galaxy? :)

[@LordoftheBoard]

I wish I had the game. It’s resale price is crazy. I never jumped on the Kickstarter :(

[@SaschaKleiber]

I have to be honest, I still don’t see the greatness of Paul’s ability. Yes, he can always see the next card, but it’s not like he has many abilities to do something with this? I never had the feeling the knowledge of the next card helped me in any way…

[@QT5656]

It can be crucial to deciding whether to make a move that gains you another card.

[@humptiness]

The description of Shifting Allegiances at 13:30 does not match how the creator described its use. There is no prohibition against going up two influence with the same faction that you deducted from.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Ill check! i think i had put a correction but mabye i did not! if not thanks for bringing to my attention.

[@guilhermederetti6333]

There is a new expansion please make some videos ❤️

[@LordoftheBoard]

Got to play them a little more and for sure I will!

[@nickbrutanna9973]

time to update to Rise of Ix. Would likely thumbs up if you had done that. ROI is too significant an update to not have a major effect on strategy, and no one I know who plays the game does not play it with ROI.

[@LordoftheBoard]

It wasn’t around when I released this video haha.

[@nickbrutanna9973]

@@LordoftheBoard From the date, that was obvious... 😛 Does not change the need for an update. It's a very major expansion which no one plays without any more.😉

[@jeremyboughtono2]

The music is really distracting and uneccessary.

[@jeremyboughtono2]

Sorry I was being a bit grumpy this morning. Its a great video but I did find the music a little bit distracting.
