Map Layout
Spice
Introduction:
I've always wanted to make a map based on Dune of Frank Herberts, finally after so much work putted into the map, i give u the first release of "Hearts of Iron: Dune",
the map is clone of HoI: The Gathering Storm and Alliance Asia, Dune is innovative in comparison to other HoI's since it pulls a few effect i will explain further.
Story:
Spice is the most precious substance in the Universe, yet it present only on Arrakis, also known as Dune, 3 Major houses are being sent to mine the spice, they War against each other for the supremacy of Arrakis. The one who controls the spice, controls the universe. But they re not alone, for the noble House Corrino have to guard the shipments of spice, for Spice must flow..
Gameplay:
The map is divided into 173 I.C area's, for each you control u receive a certain amount of Credits each turn, at default the I.C is defended by Garrisons, but later on if they re taken, player has to pull his own garrisons inside to protect his territory.
Technology is displayed as gas, player can advance using Spice, one can Pay 4 ton of Spice to House IX to support the house with better technology. Spice can also be given as shipments to emperor ( Which will boost his I.C ) or be illegally sold to the Scavangers for 400 Credits a ton.
Spice is provided every turn depending on how much Refineries you have, 5 is max, for anyone who might wonder why did i put such a limit, the answer is simple, so people trade for Spice and not only war.
Major Houses and Corrino's are given special units, the list is as follows:
Harkonnen:
-Trooper (Ghost)
-Decapitator (Firebat.)
-Devastator (Goliath.)
-Quad (Vulture.)
Atreides:
-Ornitopher (Wraight.)
-Ornibomber (BC.)
-Sonic Tank (Goliath.)
-Fremen (Firebat.)
Ordos:
-Spike Bomber (BC.)
-Deviator (Goliath.)
-Saboteur (Firebat.)
-Raider Trike (Vulture.)
Corrino:
-Saurdaukar (Ghost.)
-Quad (Vulture.)
The Corrino start with supreme army towards other houses, he posses a Flying Fortress where units are being spawned, when Fortress is down, Corrino is eliminated, as for houses, when they lose their Palace's, they lose.
I havent posted many pic's so u guys get to see it playing, just minimap, and some random thing, anyway for the record the map got around 700 triggers, 150 locations, and 11 playable nations.
Have fun playing, (The map is in Attachement.)
