[@daevohk]

The Smuggler specific strategy for the boom here is maintaining a small number of territory, then abandoning one or two--this drops your cost to annex down super duper low like ~30 authority, then you spread out and simultaneously annex ~10 regions at the same time. I was trying to call it out and stop it because it is a super vulnerable strategy, but when i had to go deal with the fremen boom it gave doghead the room to complete it.

[@Grifthin]

Hi Daevok - been following you on you channel. Any chance on a vernius video like the ecaz guide you did recently?

[@daevohk]

@@Grifthin Chances are very low or distant. They're probably my least favorite faction and I'm not qualified to guide for them right now. Ask Turin, he plays them all the time and actually seems to enjoy that suffering!

[@turinRTS]

Ty for the info!!

[@doghead95]

The exact numbers are 54 authority/region and you can cap 9 at the same time, hopefully one being the special region you abandoned. Ideally you can spike 7.4k hedge with research center this way. Time the building of said research center with spice tax, and you get a fat 9k boom total. It is extremely vulnerable though since you have to spread units out to multi-cap.

[@doghead95]

You ideally sit on 3 special regions and abandon one, forgot to add that.

YES MORE DUNE SPICE WARS I NEED IT!!!! Dude, I love your channel! I got introduced through Dune Spice wars (always been interested in the universe, but the recent movies sucked me in) and I've stayed for all your other amazing content; Age of Empires, Warhammer Total War, etc. Keep up the good work man and I hope you take the Chonk all the way this tournament!

[@turinRTS]

Cheers my friend!

[@babesinclair]

A few things about Vernius..... 1. Once you have the Folder Array surrounding units are tethered so you don't need to use the Ambient Connection spell. 2. Once Automated defenses is researched (yes I know hard to get in live games) it gives each region + 2 Automated Militia. This bring the number of settlement defenders to six and combined with a missile battery gives you good stopping power against other players. 3, Vernius' Armoury provides a third armour selection for one unit. I have found placing that additional selection on the Fighting Meks makes them hit pretty hard. Great game by all the players, well worth watching. Thanks to Turin for all the love he puts into these matches.

"The Baron is a peaceful man". Best quote! In the same ballpark of "I am a merciful God!"

[@Eyro_Elloyn]

Sins of a Solar Empire mentioned, recommendation algorithm invoked. That said, I'm a scrub and casual who doesn't play multiplayer in strategy games, so my opinion isnt as relevant to someone who tries hard at RTS. but I know the modding community is well loved with a variety of scifi franchises that work well online, and I think it's worth playing for the flavor alone.

[@Xenotrickster]

Turin has made it to the finals in his own tournaments, so is Turin a professional Dune player? Only Shai-Hulud knows.

[@TheDownrankTrain]

With CA going down the toilet, I am glad you have been able to diversify into other games

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

right, then this game comes out of the nether its a good future i think, i do hope for some more houses though and maybe mmaybe a different map area maybe i can still live without one hmmm things to think on ha

[@RafaelCabreraAzrael]

the SPICE MUST FLOW!

[@DragonInstallEnjoyer]

ngl I love tuning in to your dune videos, its always joy to watch/listen to you before end of day. Great for just chilling. Thanks for videos man.

[@Rudi77077]

What a crazy endgame!! GG!

[@Weberkooks]

always watching something tw3 related while falling asleep and like 10 times now I've woken up with this video playing but I've never watched it whilst I'm awake

[@bradmoshenko7733]

OK I have had this question a few times when watching you play Vernius. With the linking going through the desert I see sometimes that it blocks you out of more linked zones. Is there a point where you would want to unbuild and rebuild links to get it to link more?

[@turinRTS]

Need to experiment!

[@bradmoshenko7733]

@@turinRTS yeah I have seen a few instances where ver players likely could eek a bit more out.

[@kstatelegion5853]

Would love to see these tournaments on a larger scale. Maybe a larger one with a prize at the end? Love the stream!

[@turinRTS]

If someone wanted to sponsor for sure, I pay these out of pocket atm, and am a bit tight! Cheers man!

[@TheAshHeritor]

SQUEEZE, RABBAN, SQUEEZE

[@jimboslice689]

the baron when rabban grabs his nuts^

[@malcomanansala2374]

Don’t know if you knew but you can toggle Rabban’s drugs so you can control your units after you wipe your enemies! Love the content

[@misanthropicservitorofmars2116]

Daevok is go to if you can’t get enough Dune. Daily uploads, plays well, quality videos. Even has funny thumbnails.

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

def worth watching

[@Arcodus]

Great show!

[@gustavomsas]

The Nuke moment made me laugh so hard 😂😂

[@dereklutton6796]

I gotta like this stream fs Turin finally pronounced Rabban correct 😂

[@BlackbirdIX]

Love sand ❤

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

you just came for the sand hahaha well welcome to, THE SAND!!!

[@ssxe7776]

Awesome games!

[@Kevsocool]

good stuff I did not see Doghead's comeback in the cards that's nuts lol

[@aaronmcpherson1297]

ya if they would of finished him and not left him on 1 leg, daev would of won, however they lol they LEFT HIM LIVE HAHA and he stuck it to him and won hands down, he was ment to win and what a great change of events haha we hate to see it, we loved that we did well done Doghead, i only hope for success like that but better wifi haha

[@miuaia1]

INTENSE!!!

[@zmeyagosho]

Turin, is there a chance to see you play MTG again? I miss your haggard sneaky decks :D IDK if youtube algorithms will be bad for the channel, but otherwise I'd love to see you bake some cats :D

[@turinRTS]

MAYBE haha!

[@ademdelangen276]

Why cant we download this?

[@turinRTS]

?

[@ademdelangen276]

For some reason could not dowload the video.. fixed now my man. Anyway love the videos keep it up man.. Would love some atreides tho😅😊

[@DanielCosta-zp6jl]

H elves showing they still got it

[@acheron16]

Man, nukes are so bad for how much of a drawback they have.

[@XxMasterSasorixX]

Well I'll never hear Direction required again

[@bryanplatt9483]

Do the AI still cheat? Dunno if it's been updated yet.

[@Azrael-XIII]

Good win for Doghead, but maybe try doing it next time without quite so much constant whining

[@brutalusgaming8809]

It is weird. DSW is the only game you cover that I am actually playing atm and it is my least favorite content you do. it is just much less entertaining to watch then your other stuff. I can never tell what is going on even though I play SP sometimes.

[@r0fLc0pt3rf0rtHewiN]

i dont have that issue, need more dune!! But in seriousness, it's a tourney so he's gonna be more focused on gameplay than commentating.

[@nathanielcook9424]

Oh man this is the only content he does that I’m interested in!

[@nathanielcook9424]

Wait no I also dig aoe4

[@RafaelCabreraAzrael]

you need to consume more SPICE my friend

[@SlayerOfIncels]

can someone explain why vernius is considered weak? been playing them since release and they’ve been very good at what they do and fun to play. idk what im not seeing that everyone else does

[@r0fLc0pt3rf0rtHewiN]

I think it's more of a thing where some other houses are just better rather than vernius being flawed, which they aren't

[@SlayerOfIncels]

@@r0fLc0pt3rf0rtHewiN makes sense, hoping they do a future buff or rework to the nodal network, needs to have my upside considering the obstacle it produces in layout planning

[@Grifthin]

They dont have a good way to convert their tricks into wins. They have poor eco, so choam is tricky, they uave terrible landsraad even with camar so gov is hard to plan for, they also lacks strong offense, so they struggle to kill bases. They only have decent assassination, but thats more of a tool than a win condition. Still fun to play, but very weak.

[@SlayerOfIncels]

@@Grifthin i didn’t clarify that i only play vernius and now that you mention all of that i have seen the obvious in the confusion of my thoughts lol

[@Grifthin]

​@@SlayerOfIncelsI love em too, but you gotta work so hard compared to other factions.
