[The Fifth Horseman]

So I thought too.

Maybe the game inserts some special bonuses/penalties for all units of each clan?

I remember Harkonnen tanks to be strong and slow, Ordos' fast and weak, and Atreides' average. Which is better depends on your playing. I prefer the Harkonnen. Speed counts, but the Ordos don`t have enough speed to make the difference.

But that was a long time ago... So maybe I remember it bad.

I remember it too..Ordos were fast cause they had the "raider" trike (not a normal one), it was the powerfull version.

I always imagined them to be all the same.... :blink:

Same as I think. I don't remember there being any difference between Atreides Siege Tank and Harkonnen Siege Tank, the only race differences were the race-specific vehicles such as Ordos Deviator, Atreides Sonic Tank, Harkonnen Devastator and others, which provided for the strategy.

I remember there was a lovely bug with the house ordos...
everybody knows that deviator can steal for a moment enemy units...but only few knows that if you hold the attack command (of the stole unit) and wait until the unit returns to the enemy you can finally give this definitive command...its beatiful to see Harkonnen vs harkonnen ha!

[Scatty]

Yeah I know that one. Used it a lot when I played Ordos, it was funny to see the enemy units destroying their own base, until after a while the computer ordered them to attack me again. One trick also is to build the concrete plates in a line all the way up to the enemy base, gather a group of them near the base and build the towers on them which will then attack the enemy base. Since repairing the towers doesn't cost as much as producing new units to attack, with a little patience and close control it works quite good.

That was Dune 2000.
In Dune 2 mentat Radnor says "Harkonnen Combat Tank has an ADEGUATE armor"
Harkonnen is good for quad and death hands...the siege tanks are the same that other house and the devastator is a nuisance (too slow to attack,too expensive and too dangerous for defense).

[Dave]

Harkonnen Devastator is perfect for suicide attacks!
I love dune2..I remember I was able to create Harkonnen sonic tank and ornythopter!!!!
Whit no cheats...

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!!
