Dune 2000: Ordos - Part 1 - That Is Your Mission

Full-Motion cutscene from Westwood Studio's Dune 2000.

House Ordos is not one for direct conflict. In truth, if there is a chance to avoid it, they will follow that path to its end. The new Commander is briefed by the strange Mentat, Edric O. He informs the Commander of the probability that he is not what he appears. Passion does not matter to Ordos however, and they are willing to accept such odds. The Ordos are primarily on Arrakis to mine the spice. Military is not their forte, and it is wise for them to avoid such conflicts. If it is possible to avoid such needless losses as military spending, then the Ordos will do as such. However, odds have been calculated that the chances of conflict are inevitable.

@Versus1984 They FUCKIN ROCKS... I actually happen to have kinda a fetish on this type of over-neurotic people like, you know, Dr. Spock...

Yep, the Ordos are my favorites too. They are just so CALCULATED - no outbursts of anger, no attempts to save the world or to destroy it...Just profit.

The Ordos remind me of the Strogg from the Quake series.

We are the Borgs, we will assimilate your technology, you will be made to serve us, resistance is futile.

@DarthRushy Emperor storyline is mostly made-up.I don't actually care much about canon, it's just for coolness factor.The real problem is, there will never be games good such as this...

[lordvivecjjj]

Ordos are BY FAR the coolest faction EVAR

And the funny thing is that they pretty much not even exist on the original Dune series... westwood plot-makers did an excellent job

Definitely the easiest of the Houses to play in D2K. No Saboteur, and you get mercs to fight along side you.
