Well greetings everyone. I am Dallas Keen, and I am pleased to present
my first ever guide (FAQ, walkthrough, whatever) to you. I hope that
this guide will help you better understand all of the units in the game.
But of course, I cannot do that without your help, so please if you see
any problems (ANY AT ALL) , or if you have any suggestions drop me an
email at walkthroughgamer@yahoo.com . And also I have descent experience
in Emperor, so you can trust that this guide is above 97.5 % accurate.

You can hit Ctrl + F and find any unit or section.

+2. Basic House And Unit Overview+
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Atreides: This house is what you can basically call the "Good Guy". They
are very useful if you want to play a defensive game or bide time for a
big rush. Their unit variety beholds many strategies. And you can easily
make a good unit group without much effort. Also since they have a unit
called the Atreides Repair Vehicle, they can repair any mechanical unit
basically making them invincible. And also only in this house, if you
get your infantry units up to three veteran levels, then you can allow
them to renter the barracks to train one chevron troops but for every
elite (three chevron warrior) you can train one chevron guy, you if you
get three of one unit, then you can train elite guys. If you are just
picking up the game, you might want to try this house.

Harkonnen: This house is the "Bad Guy". My favorite house. This house
is for those of you whole like to constantly attack. Their units are
hard to defend with but you can tear up a base with 'em in no time. But
like I said, their unit variety is for attacking so you might want to
try rushing early in a game. They may not be able to repair, but their
units have tough armor.

Ordos: Um... these guys aren't bad or good, they are just there. The
games where only supposed to have Atreides and Harkonnen. But they
needed an extra house to tie it together. I hate this house. They stink.
Their armor is weak, and they don't have any weapons that do massive
damage. The only good thing is that they have self repair.
