Ordos when.

Never. Ordos belongs to a computer game and is not part of the official Dune universe (as per the books).

Interesting addition, but I don't recall from the 6 books that Ix had a Great House ruling over them. I got the impression the Ixians were a technocracy with no single family in charge.

Tleilaxu next! Puhleaze, if you've got the Technologists, now only makes sense to bring in the Biologists with them gholas! :d

Ordos were made up, I'd rather have Bene Tleilax who had more of an impact, especially in the prequel material.

I was thinking the same thing!

Looking forward to playing the new faction. Don't add too many more to the point that factions blend together and lose their uniqueness. Happened to Northgard with me. Sometimes less is more.

Bene Tleilax is inevitable and should be unique

Otherwise I can only foresee the following factions before the game hits a ceiling:
-House Ginaz (Swordmasters, Duncan Idaho's homeworld I think)
-House Moritani (Rivals of Ginaz that also feature in the Dune Boardgame with Ecaz)
-House Richese (Cheap manufacturing, rivals of House Vernius.)

Not possible without massive gameplay changes:
-Bene Gesserit
-Spacing Guild

called it! I was trying to figure out what would be the Next playable team/house using the in game hints/lack of presents and Ix was the only one i could think of, it was present on a lot of the dialog through the game but not a full mechanic. when there was a distinct lack of Sardaukar in game i figured the Imperial House was going to appear. The last team i expect to emerge is the spacing guild, its a large house in the books and has a few mentions but no mechanic or presents, CHOAM is mentioned a lot so it cant be the Spice Bank, and the Tleilaxu are both featured mechanics... well have to see whats next!

i thought it was House Butler, well until the Jyhad of course. Didnt Leto II secretly deal with the IX, wouldn't he have made at least a group that controlled the flow of technology he used?

Now we start paying for just a single house...
