Emperor - Battle for Dune - House Atreides - For the Good of All

Combined Mission Briefings of House Atreides - From the Computer Game "Emperor - Battle for Dune". The mission briefings for the assaults on the homeworlds of house Ordos and house Harkonnen are both included.
Trutfully, I have to say Michael Dorn looks far better without a plastic turtle on his forehead. The Atreides Mentat also fares much better in this role than as as a pitiful ineffective Soviet Premier.
The Atreides are quite a versatile faction with however in my opinion shockingly ineffective heavy units. Their pretentiously hypocritical claim to righteousness as well as their peculiar affection for the inappropiately belligrent Fremen (I know, I know, I am biased! I never could stand those
desert-mice!) sours this faction in my tastes.
At least the actors make a decent effort though. Smirk

House Atreides is the Dune counterpart of these Commands and Conquer factions: Allies (Red Alert), GDI (Tiberium continuity), and the USA (Generals) Let's examine, what do House Atreides, the GDI, the Allies, and the USA have in common? Their color is blue, they all have eagle as their symbol, they are the good guys of their respective universes. In war they have an emphasis on air power, technological sophistication, and superior training of their soldiers.

[@TheRogueminator]

Yes, they are indeed the good guys, and the funniest to play with the! Atreides Mongoose and Minotaurs are awesome

[@GeneralWildDog]

Duke Atreides is the only house leader who spends his time in frontline with his soldiers, rather than resting in home planet. On the other hand, Atreides has best air units and mobile artilleries, and I even like the snipers. The only downside is Hawk Strike is utterly useless.

[@someguy1747]

Hawk Strike is entirely situational in it's use. You can either use it as a prelude to an attack, getting the enemies strongest units out of the way or as an emergency "panic-button" if your units defending your base is inefficient, using it on enemy forces so you can have more time to muster better defenses.

[@moisesortega3684]

Long live Duke Worf Atreides!

[@VideoMatoran]

The Duke is the truest leader of all within this game. He is wise, just, and benevolent, even in warfare. He is also incredibly patient.

[@thegoodwin]

He's also Worf in Star Trek.

Didnt know premier Romanov was in fact an artreide member... So, if artreides and romanoffs are relatives, why didnt they helped Nicholas II? I guess at that time they were fighting for Dune.

Westwood's official position was that this game is set about 200 years before the movie, so it would have not made sense to have Patrick Stewart.

[@Schinshikss]

+sgdeluxedoc It's from a RTS game Called "Emperor: Battle for Dune." Thus most of the events are non-canon. You may as well consider it as a parallel universe.

[@DarthRushy]

The Guild is a lot bigger and a lot more complex than 1 worker. If they tried ruled the universe, they would render themselves pointless and break down thousands of years of development. It's kind of like saying the bus drivers are stealing their own vehicles.

[@someguy1747]

I assume this is more of a rogue element of the Spacing Guild one of which is not sanctioned by the rest of the Guild and distrupted their operations.
