    Sure, you'll have a problem creating the flying vessels and the worms I guess.

    Honestly, I was hoping by starting this thread someone else would be inspired to take on those problems
    The epic scope Total War and Dune are a good match.

    Ya, not sure how one would animate huge sandworms or flying ornithopters. The fremen would ride into battle on these huge sandworms and presumably used them like elephant cavalry, but they were HUGE.

    I am still confused about the combat. In the book they had shields which deflected fast moving objects but not slow ones, so presumably that would deflect projectile weapons. When a shield was hit by a lasgun (type of energy weapon) the result was a nuclear explosion so they didn't rely on them. So did they do a lot of hand-to-hand fighting? I will have to re-read the book someday.

    Been suggested before... 70% possible IMO
    could work but there are better things that don't have mods.
