IMPORTANT NOTE: You will need Dune II v1.07 (any release) to play Super Dune II: Classic Edition.

The fixes and changes made in Super Dune II: Classic Edition include:

• All scenario (mission) files have been cleaned of errors and mistakes, first and foremost of the team bug, which means the AI is now harder. Here's a nice example of enemy attack teams:
  
  
• The Mentat animations for the new sides were messed up in SD2, this has, too, been fixed. Now the Fremen are briefed by Cyril, the Mercenaries by Ammon, and the Sardaukar by Radnor.
  
• All missions are now supplied with appropriate briefings.
  
• The errors which caused concrete placement restrictions for the Mercenaries and the Sardaukar ("concrete bug") and prevented the Fremen- and Mercenary-conquered regions from showing up on the conquest map ("vanishing houses bug") have been fixed.
  
• Frigate delivery now works properly for the new sides:
  
  
• The new sides' units are no longer immune to Deviator attacks.
  
• All Mercenary-related events on the battlefield are now properly announced (originally, the word "Mercenary" was not pronounced).
  
• The player-owned sandworms in the Fremen campaign are now more friendly towards the player's other units. They are set by default to Area Guard, in which mode they do not devour friendly units. Additionally, the player can now manually set the worms into Area Guard mode if the need arises:
  
  
• Fixed some in-game graphical bugs, including the IX remap error:
  
  
• All modified files are neatly packed into PAK archives for your convenience.
