Corrections:
An important note is that if you retreat in combat, your opponent chooses where you retreat to. This is mentioned during the atomics section, but not during combat, where it should have been.
An official FAQ was released while I was making this video. Among the clarifications, there are also a couple of rules changes. You can read the FAQ at www.cmon.com/wp-content/uploa... but the rules changes are as such:
There is no longer a one ban per turn limit during spice harvesting. You gain a ban for each faction that lowers.
If you win a combat as the attacker you do not have to move into the space if you don't want to.

I actually got into Dune through the recent computer game Spice Wars. Love it to death… I should play it again
Oh yeah Spice Wars is fun.
Awesome game. I had for a few months. Didn't know about the FAQ 3.0. Thank you for the rules video, with updates.
You mentioned opposing player choosing retreat location only for the atomics, This is the rule in general. whenever a legion retreats the opponent chooses where.
Ah, that's a good spot, thanks! I'll make a note.
Imperium bans changed in FAQ 3.0. You no longer choose one from among those that moved down, they all activate.
yeah, all bans activate now.
I got this game and played it a bit with my friend/roommate. It takes a bit, but man I love it. Especially being a huge Dune fan. Now if only I could find enough people to play the old 80s version of Dune board game you've talked about before.
I much prefer the RTFM format. . Glad you're back
This is my favorite Dune:WfA tutorial so far, thank you for making this!
Thanks for watching! Did you notice something that you think I got wrong? Reply to this comment with a timestamp and I'll check it out and post a correction if needed.
Great rules explanation
@@MichaelBomholt Thanks!

Love your videos. You speak so very well. Cool hair!
thanks mate

Did I hear correctly? You’ll put together a how to play for the solo mode?
I didn't understand the surprise attack at 26:07: so there's a special die but what does it do? What's the meaning of "+*"?
For the first round only the attacking player adds 1 free special * die result to their combat roll. Basically a free special leader ability. (page 24) The combat die D6 have 3 hits symbols, 2 shields, and 1 special result when rolled.
It is Härkönen!

Hadn't seen one of his videos in a while, definitely got caught by surprise by the "Gary Oldman in Fifth Element" look
