Some of you appear to be interested in a walkthrough for DUNE, so...

General HINTS
-------------

* you can only spot new sietches when you are accompanied by someone.

* don't FLY into Harkonnen territory, you'll get shot.

* you can go visit a battle by riding a worm to the fortress.
  ( this will inspire your men: increase of morale )

* leave Gurney Halleck to train troops more efficiently

* do NOT attack unless your troops are well trained and supplied with
adequate weapons ( knives, guns, weirding modules )

* keep talking to people, some will only tell you things when you're alone
with them....

* send spice to the Emperor by telling Duncan Idaho to do so.

* Always visit newly captured sietches and rally the troops.

* Thufir Hawat will advise you in affairs of war.


WALKTHROUGH
-----------

Talk to your father & mother. Fly to the most southern sietch. Talk to
Gurney Halleck. Rally the Fremen chief (spice). Equip the troop with the
harvester. Take Gurney with you.
Fly to the next sietch. Rally the chief (He'll refuse).
Fly to the next sietch. Rally the chief (spice).
Fly to the palace. Talk to Duncan Idaho.
Fly to the first sietch you visited. Talk to Fremen chief. He'll point you
to more sietches (3).
Visit those sietches, rally the troops (spice). Their territory has yet to
be prospected. The sietch that refused to work for you are prospectors.
Visit that sietch again. Rally them and send them to the 3 new sietches.
Return to the palace. Talk to Duncan Idaho.
Go to the sietch directly east of the first sietch. They'll give you
stillsuits and send some to the palace. Return to the palace.
Take Jessica with you and search for hidden rooms. You'll find a
communication room. Conversation between you, Jessica, The duke, Duncan.
Now WALK into the desert and wait for vision (message arrived at palace).
Return to the palace and read message from Shaddam. Talk to Thufir Hawat.
Visit the 3 newest sietches and ask for more sietches. Go to yet another
sietch (direction specified) and find Harah. Take Harah with you. She knows
of 3 more sietches. Visit them and rally them (spice).
At this time you may want to send your prospecters to these sietches. Keep
in mind that the troops in unprospected territories can be send out to look
for equipment.
Return to the palace. Search for more hidden rooms with Jessica. Find
weapon room. Talk Gurney. Now you need a Fremen Leader.
Take Harah with you to the sietch of the stillsuit makers. They'll tell you
about Stilgar. Talk to Harah. She'll point you to Stilgar's sietch.
Visit Stilgar. Rally the troops (spice or army). Visit the surrounding
sietches and rally the troops (spice or army). Take Stilgar with you.
Return to the palace. Leave Harah. Bring Gurney to training troops.
Don't forget the shipment of spice for the Emperor. Talk to Duncan.
Talk to Harah about villages. Watch the shape of the mountains.
Visit villages, buy weapons and have troops pick them up. Don't forget to
pay for them !!. (Duncan will remind of bills).
Talk to Stilgar without Harah (She wants to go back anyway). Stilgar will
tell you about Chani. Find Chani. Take her into the desert and wait for the
evening (Aaah, how romantic). Take Chani with you.
Visit one of the sietches with water traps. Don't drink yet ! Your mother
will tell you when the time is come to do so.
Do not forget to equip your spice explorers with harvesters/orni's.
Send your prospectors to all unexplored territories.
Visit your mother in the palace. Find her in the garden room. Talk to
Chani. Go visit her father Liet Kines. Put some troops at work in the
sietch of Liet (ecology).
When your troops are strong enough send them to spy on the Harkonnen.
Send at least 3 troops to conquer a fortress. BEWARE: after victory your
troops will be tied up transforming the fortress into a sietch.
Equip your troops with atomics as you find them in the fortresses.
For the finale you need the help of Thufir Hawat. 

                   *               *
                           *


Now, I'm typing this up by heart, so I can't recall all the sietches names.
Bear in mind that some events may be 'swapped' in time. This depends on how
quick you are in playing.

Have fun, Wim.
