Dune 2000

[Grandpa Troll]

I used to play this quite a bit.

I couldnt recently until we made up a small PC for my grandchildren.

Now, games like Rogue Spear series, are playable.

I installed and will get into playing this weekend.

Did anyone else ever play this.

I need to remember how to thwart the old saboteurs, IIRC, they were engineers

Well I did play it but don't have much to say. It's Windows-friendly, right? It's not a well known game probably because it's a polished top-of-the-line classic real-time strategy released at the time when everyone had already played such games for a few years and people were getting bored of them.

What do you think is the easiest faction to play?

The original game was what got me hooked on RTS. I have the 2000 also, but alas, I cannot give strategy to you gramps. I forgot it...

Now I have to load it up. I love Dune.

I hadn't played the next version of DUNE (three discs) in awhile, but now am missing a disc

Dune II i think was better, and it's still one of my favourite rts games today.

The one I played was updated graphics and had 3 discs to it

yeah just kinda saying if you like Dune 2000, keep an eye out for the one i linked about(Dune II.........Dune(I) was a strange adventure game, not an rts). I think the general feeling is that it is the best in that series of games.
As all real gamers know, graphics do not a great game make
