i heard from my father that they actually made a movie of dune 2000 or there was one but im not sure it was old age because i have never been able to find it

Actually it's the other way around, the game was based off a movie. The movie is from the 1980's and is called Dune. And that movie is actually based on a book series written by a guy named Frank Herbert.

@smithdanger The movie is a little bit different from a book but yes it IS based on a book. Dune 2/2000 rules.

Leto? I thought this was an alternate reality? What about Achillus? Is Emperor another alternate reality?

@vigo894 Ockay, self-correction: "Always bet on the Duke"s"!"
