Unboxing Ecaz and Moritani expansion for Dune

What’s in the box??
Also, unbox with the artist: • DUNE: Ecaz and Moritan...

[@branimirtkalec]

He who controls Dune board game, must also control this expansion.

[@Jaded_AF]

Huge! I'm so excited that people can finally see why this is the best expansion yet.

[@Dom-dq8ru]

I audibly screamed at work when I got the notification for this video and I’m pretty sure my boss is even more worried about me than normal now XD can’t wait to play this!!!

[@Thomas-rw1be]

So excited. This expansion really seems to address some of the aspects of the game that can be grating on some (hard to come back, fremen somewhat weak and use of worms somewhat uncommon, and no significant reason to not be in an alliance). Love this game and your work, I am extremely stoked for this! Lol you do a good job at leaving us wondering about this sixth general that can be used by both factions

[@Astupidalias]

And teasing only three homeworlds and one Nexus card. I got a real duner about the shrine... adding value to Truthtrance and Karama is a genius mechanic!

[@ChrisisisB]

Interesting to see how people open plastic wrappings. Finally some news. Big positive, the home planets are big tokens, not cards as was hinted in the magazine article. Maybe the cards are used for status 10:20 yes. (I admit I wrote this comment only a few minutes in).

[@theONLYfudjud]

Homeworlds sounds fantastic: looking forward to being confused about whether to not send troops. Really simple way to make more interesting decisions. Love that there's a potential extra stronghold, another way to shorten game time, but it sounds more interesting that the unofficial shield wall stronghold

[@kennyalford7922]

Those sounds, could be imitated!

[@nashbellow5430]

How would the Fremen work with the home worlds seeing that Arrakis is their home? Would their "home world" be the southern hemisphere, or does it just work differently altogether for them? I also did notice the new strong hold (which I love the idea of), but I was wondering if there is a second new strong hold advantage to account for the new factions? It could be really cool to gain a strong hold if you are able to control enough of the opponents home worlds, and would open up the possibility of a 12 person Dune game since the home world mechanic can take troops/battles off Arakis (5 in the base + HMS + Tech tokens + Sietch Jacurutu + Presumably home worlds + 2 fan made strong holds to account for CHOAM and Richese (usually Cielago Depression + Shield Wall after 4 worms)). Of course a 12 person game would be insane, but I do like the idea that every faction can get at least one stronghold easily (except for the Gesserits)

[@jackredathewarp]

Fremen have the Southern Hemisphere. As for the other stuff…. Wait till you see expansion 4!

[@zangster2k]

@@jackredathewarp expansion 4? I'm already running out of room in my game box and I don't have expansion 3 yet.

[@jackredathewarp]

@@zangster2k we are considering that fact.

[@zangster2k]

@@jackredathewarp that would be much appreciated. My Folded Space insert for Dune is becoming increasingly stuffed with great game content.

[@MrJibbajabbawocky]

​@@jackredathewarpI'd very happily buy a special edition "big" box that fits everything. Any idea if there will be a "premium" edition of the box? (Wood or other materials, etched, etc) I would happily shell out 3 figures for something like that.

[@Caribeancrysis]

Damn! I'm curious to see these factions, but homeworlds alone expand the game so much. Seems like a very different game with this expansion!

[@RealCooperChristian]

Every Dune expansion is amazingly designed. I wonder if there will be more. I'm keeping my fingers crossed

[@jackredathewarp]

Me too

[@RuslanCherryMissing]

My gosh. This is, amazing. Truly. How am I suppose to memorize it all now?))

[@Astupidalias]

Practice!!!

[@FluxAugur]

Where can I get that shirt?

[@mrgunn2726]

Got my copy!

[@tomblums5057]

when can I buy this?

[@jamessmith7205]

GOOD JOB, JACK!!!! pre-order is locked in 👍

[@bigpawz9326]

Adding Homeworlds is going to put a lot more into this game! I'm stoked.

[@venom_6111]

Loving your work Jack!

[@Wildboy789789]

WHOA WHOA WHOA, when did this drop?

[@jackredathewarp]

Should hit stores in a week or so

[@criskobeats]

This is awesome Jack! Hope we can order it soon in Europe too!

[@solomandorP]

I’d love to hear your thoughts Jack on the balance of the game with the expansions, especially how with expansion 3 we now have 8 ways of gaining victory points for the mentat phase (5 base strongholds, ixian mobile stronghold, holding 3 tech tokens and the new discovery token stronghold) to get 3 of them for a solo victory with a lower number of players could be done without any battles with some luck. Would you recommend homerules of increasing the required victory points based on the number in play for that game? Love everything this expansion plans to introduce and can’t wait for even more expansions down the road

[@brandish_0003]

Everything about this expansion is so interesting and exciting! I can’t wait to see both of the Factions abilites, especially the terror tokens and the ambassadors tokens. I also love that the Smugglers have finally made it into the game in some way and I think it’s a perfect implementation. Both the smuggler and the fremen tokens are really exciting. But my absolute favourite part is tied between the home worlds and the nexus cards. Homeworlds seem like a simple edition with major affects on choices, and I like that it seems to disincentivise doom stacking to a certain extent but not entirely. And the occupation rules seem like an awesome bonus. I also love that there is now a catch up mechanism. And the nexus cards are so versatile and seem like a great way that you can both balance/buff factions and also make it more immersive being able to interact with factions that arent in play. So so excited for this expansion!

[@1simo93521]

This is wonderfully insane and complicated, definitely buying it!

[@marxmeesterlijk]

I already don't use all of the stuff from the other expansions, at some point it's just getting to much. I'm still getting this though. seems cool.

[@saouke]

I think the great thing about them is you can mix and match bits of expansions

[@jonatanklock3206]

Same here

[@ogmundprime6534]

Just got my expansion. It is just as awesome as everyone thinks it is. Of all the Dune games out there, this continues to be the preferred option for my gaming group. Kudos for another wonderful expansion!

[@tabcongarvall]

the new mechanisms are awesome!

[@MrTorrek99]

Very excited to try this expansion. Will there be a polish translation available? I have the base game and other expansions in polish and would like to have everything in the same language, so I hope there will be the translation 😅

[@jackredathewarp]

I don't think the translated copies are high on their list at the moment- they are starting with a smaller print run, so it will really depend on its success and demand. By all means: direct requests to GF9... the more they hear from players, the more likely it happens.

[@MrTorrek99]

@@jackredathewarp thank you for the info, I will try to reach out GF9, I know that in Poland translations are really popular in terms of board games

[@bigpawz9326]

Do we Replace the current spice blow cards with the new ones that add smugglers? or just shuffle those in? or is it my choice lol

[@fishua98]

Is the T-shirt you're wearing for sale too? 😅

[@jamessmith7205]

That shirt is awesome, where can a guy get one???

@@jackredathewarp good looking out, thank you sir! Have a great weekend!

[@palmapalmowa1301]

my god this is too god to be true

[@jordantucker3834]

Apologies in advance if you can't answer the questions (as the product has not come out yet) but I have a few in regards to the new spice cards and the discovery stronghold that might come up during the game. Do the new spice cards that place a discovery token replace the original spice cards that have 6 spice on them or are they in addition to them? Does the stronghold that is added by a discovery token have a corresponding stronghold card like the cards added by the Richese and CHOAM expansion? (If so I can be patient and wait to find out what it does.)

[@jackredathewarp]

The Spice cards are in addition to the normal ones, though I suspect some players will replace, and some will stack the deck so that Discovery Spice cards come up early. The Jacarutu stronghold has an innate ability similar to the Stronghold Cards, and works even in basic.

[@dateris]

All I want for Christmas is to occupy everyone's homeworld. All of the planets. Mine. Is that so much to ask for?

[@jackredathewarp]

Sounds reasonable.

[@jonatanklock3206]

I assume the Spacing Guild can ship forces back to their home world? Please confirm. Thanks

[@jackredathewarp]

Yep.

[@watchtowerman]

Sounds so amazing. Can't wait for a release date

[@1183newman]

This is def the best expansion imo.

[@futuristicbot]

yay

[@motownfreak15]

Stoked!!

[@ArmanoLiveking]

Is it possible, that in the future i can buy it in german language like the other two expansions and main game?

[@jackredathewarp]

Perhaps in the future. They have not done any other language print runs so far.

[@ArmanoLiveking]

@@jackredathewarp thx. I hope the make it, like the other expansions. Its a great game!

[@hansgroebel4823]

Can´t wait for the German Edition. It looks and sounds very cool. Great Job Jack!

[@user-if7zm]

I love the homeworld mechanic. Are the new spice blow cards used instead of the old ones or in addition?

[@leonardokuntscher7857]

We love your ideas. Greetings from Argentina!

[@Rfl0104]

Will it be available in other languages like the other expansions?

[@jackredathewarp]

Perhaps eventually

[@BjarteInNorway]

Can’t wait to play with this expansion!

[@shinobiighost6946]

I WANT MORE VIDEO

[@IllShitYourPants]

Can't wait for it to be released in Polish! They nexus mechanics are exactly what I felt the game needs and the Homeworlds cards are a very exciting addition. Best wishes to all the people behind this wonderful game!
