CK3 Mechanics + Dune Universe (Probably Movie Spoilers)

[Atomsk]

How amazing would it be to have a CK3 game set in the Dune universe? That houses/factions in Dune are so diverse and really have their own unique designs.

...Even inbreeding wouldn't be out of place in the Dune universe, there's this one scene where Paul Atreides gives her mom a certain look...

There's usually a DUNE mod for any of these types of games, sadly Dune's more sci-fi; and it's harder to transcribe sci fi into Medieval unlike fantasy (low or high). Dune's been around since the 1960s and has been a staple for sci-fi lovers!

Still, that could be a great excuse for you to learn how to mod and make your own Dune conversion mod for this game!

I see one glaring and obvious issue with trying to turn Dune into a CK3 mod.

You don't have local fiefdoms or anything like it. Atreides rules the ENTIRE planet - Not parts of it. You don't have an Ordos subcontinent or the Corrino's summer palace and barony.

Please someone make a mod

The map would be the biggest challenge, instead of continents they should do planets, i.e. Arakis, Caladan, Gedi Prime, etc.

Yea, easier to implement on Stellaris.

There's actually a couple Dune and CK-inspired games on Steam. I can't vouch for their quality outside the demos but they seem interesting:

The idea of Dune Universe would be epic.

Would be an amazing fit for CK3, bloodlines, Houses, Bene Jesuit, etc. Could even be a stand alone CK3 game/DLC.

Plus if you find the video of House Atreides accepting the call (order) of the Emperor to go take over Arrakis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_TuEO6Mttw , the backstory is (among other reasons also) that the Bene Gesserit were pissed that their orders/mission hadn't been followed by Duke Leto's wife Lady Jessica (a former Bene Gesserit) -notice the look the Bene Gesserit gives Paul's mother and Paul-, and there was speculation that the Bene Gesserit had used influenced to make it so the House Atreides were sent to Dune as Punishment.

It would be epic to see the Houses and politics played out in something exactly like CK3.

Sorry for all the edits, I can't spell Bene Gesserit to save my life.
