I've never played this game before, and after defeating the first level I am asked 3 questions. I attempt to answer them, but the game always shuts down. What's up with this? I'd post the questions, but I've yet to be asked the same question twice. GRRR!![/b]

Download the manual. It has all the answers.

I remember making Atreides or Harkonnen Deviators which shot green gas.. I think they were useless..

The nice thing about captured enemy buildings was they never had to be maintained (repaired) while your own buildings seemed to 'erode' a bit as time passed (I think till they reached half points).

Great game.

That "erosion" happens only when you don't build them on concrete slabs.

Yes, I remember it .
Have you ever captured an enemy palace?
Me not...maybe cause in the last levels it was soooo difficult! (I was 7 years old!!!)

Hm, I thought there was always some slow erosion happening, in the vein of a few % per hour on normal speed. But indeed it was significantly higher without concrete slabs.

Yes, there is erosion (at least in the version I used to have) it's slow indeed and it's not related to placing your buildings on concrete slabs. If I remember correctly, the erosion only happens after the first couple of levels (after the learning/basic ones), it affects all buildings and as a result some of them won't function at 100% capacity (wind traps and spice storage are a good example). Also the building upgrades can only be done on fully repaired buildings so eroded buildings can't be upgraded until they're repaired. The enemy buildings never erode. And I think the erosion stops at 50% (stays at minimum level of green, doesn't go into yellow).

it could be also your enemy sending in infantry units to sabotage? i find saboteur very hard to use even in dune 2000. any ideas? my tanks won't automatically notice it whereas their always does.

isn't the game cracked (just press enter)? if not there should be a manual or some code on the site here.
