I quite like the idea of a Dune/Atreides/Fremen themed army. Thought I'd ask here about potential army lists that could be used to Count As the various features of the novel. Have had a look around these boards but not picked up much coverage. Am hoping to get some pointers or suggestions or . . . inspiration. Items I'd like to try and cater for include: Fremen, Worms, Ornithopers, Spice Harvesters(?), Heavy Lift Ornithopers, Guild Spice Bribes (virtual spacecraft?), Fedaykin, Ducal Troops, . . . Characters might include: A Duke, Bene Gesserit, Mentats, Duncan Idaho, Gurney Halleck, various Fremen, and others Weapons of interest would include: shields, weirding way, but probably not the family atomics except to take out terrain features(!?) Some army lists that I thought might be possible included: Imperial Guard generally - Commissars provide a good character role. Death Korps of Krieg - Big WE transports (worms?), fortifications around the capital. Catachan - Catachan Devils (Fedaykin?), Deathworld Veterans (Fremen?), Valkyrie and Vulture (Ornithopers?), Leman Russ Demolisher (Worms?) Elysian - Drop Troops (Fremen teleporting in from desert or dropped from orithopters?), Several Flyers (Ornithopters), Iron Discipline (tough troops), Tauros and Sentinals (Air-lifted vehicles). Harakoni - probably couldn't due to being named after House Harkonnen(?) Anyway: Grav Gliders (Guild Lighters or House Frigates?), Skimmers (Ornithopers?), Line Breaker Column (Fremen on worms). Space Marine - Heavy Lander, various airbourne assts, Anyway, any thoughts, . . . ? |

I thought about doing a Iron warriors but as the cymeks, especially with several defilers to count for the original cymeks. Would love to have one of their brain canisters escape pods as an objective! Irregular do a couple of different sizes of sand worm, though they are rather long, but I'm not sure how wide they are. |
