Each of the commanders in this game takes control of a faction featuring unique motives and fighting styles. In Dune Spice Wars, it's up to you what strategy you choose. You can wage open wars with opponents, bet on deception and intrigue, or use diplomacy and the rule of law to your advantage. The main goal is to discover new locations, build spice harvesters, and secure the area from enemies.
The sale of Melange allows you to obtain funds to purchase the latest technologies, which helps gain complete dominance on the map. But be careful!
