Not sure where the confusion is. If the BG is trying to accompany a Fremen movement onto the board, then the BG is trying to cheat. If everyone in the game...
I've been a member for years, many years, but I'm only a ghost. I read what you write and never comment until now. I love the heart all of you put into your...
... Hey Glenn: I'm sort of surprised you interpret it that way - your assertion is actually different from my WBC rulings, and I've never heard you complain...
Brad – the problem as I see it is that the restriction printed on the Fremen shield can scarcely be referring to much else beyond the Guild and shipping....
Dear Dune Board Game Members, Please join us on the brand new Facebook page just for us--fans of the Dune Board Game by Avalon Hill. Here is the direct link: ...
Hi all, I know several people with links to my Istilah Jihad websites...I got a notice today, that those websites will be expiring soon. The upshot of this...
All, In Treasure of the Sands, David, our great GM has just announced a ruling, which I can't find any clarification for or against, except for one of the...
Well there is a little ambiguity. One could argue that the Orinthopters are available for rent from private parties so control is not needed and merely...
The BG get ornithopters for co existence. I forget the actual reason now, but I'm sure that is the case. Colin ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
Your GM's ruling seems to me to interpret the rules very literally and clearly. It may not be in what some players might feel to be the spirit or intent of the...
The point David is making is that the BGs un-coexisted at the beginning of the movement phase, and should thus have access to the orthicopters, as they've been...
The official WBC ruling is posted over at BGG. On this topic it reads: A player is considered to have access to ornithopters during his turn if and only if he...
Glenn, To make sure I understand what your saying here... A BG player who was coexisting in Arrakeen and coexisting in Carthag, could stop coexisting in...
Thanks I knew I had read the tournament rule, but I no longer have a copy, should have realized they were on BGG (duh :) ) Colin ... [Non-text portions of this...
... BG tokens are considered to be non-coexisting until another faction enters the territory. If coexistence is declared at that moment, you cannot later...
Just to be clear (I am the one GM'ing the game in question), we are not discussing if BG coexisting troops grant the player access to ornithopters, I think...
... It's not really related to the other discussion, but I think you are wrong on this one. Bene Gesserit ability say "Those territories in which you choose to...
Well, the rules define what "coexistance" means, and that definition is obviously different form the English definition of the word, and it's safe to say that...
... IMO, no. A literal interpretation of the rules supports the BG getting ornithopters by doing this. (Actually, a literal interpretation also does not rule...
I agree with you mostly. One stipulation, there is a contridictory rule in the rules, that specifically states, that coexisting troops don't get access to...
The rules explicitly rule out coexisting tokens qualifying tokens for BG ornithopters. When BG tokens coexist, "They are treated as if they are not even on the...

I think that was the intention when drafting the rule, and that's the way we've always played. However, that rule could also be interpreted to mean nothing...
I'm planning to make my first trip to WBC in many years this August. In fact, it was still Avaloncon the last time I attended. I played in the Dune Finals...
We always play that players can't use TTs to ask about future intentions. Otherwise it severly nerfs the Atreides Prescience power, and introduces tons of...
I agree with Sitko. As soon as a player starts to ask "are you going to..." with a TT, they should be stopped and reminded this is a TT card, NOT a prescience...
I also strongly advise against using TT to ask about future intentions (and especially about making the answer binding) as this allows the players to abuse the...
I had to deal with how to handle Truthtrances when programming the Dune Emulator. The obvious way would be to allow the player to type in the question and get...
