Dune: Imperium – Uprising guide

With Diplomacy and 1 water, choose a card and a destination.

Check access icons and pay before resolving effects. Desert Tactics costs 1 water, gives Fremen influence and one troop, and permits trashing.

Diplomacy → Desert Tactics

Diplomacy → Fremkit

Dagger → Desert Tactics (check access)

An enemy Agent occupies Arrakeen. You have Reconnaissance and a connected Spy.

Recalling a connected Spy bypasses an enemy Agent, not costs, influence or card access. One Spy cannot both Infiltrate and Gather Intelligence.

Recall Spy and infiltrate Arrakeen

Use one Spy for both effects (check)

Arrakeen is empty; Reconnaissance is selected. Recall its Spy? The fixed next card is Convincing Argument.

Decide immediately after placement, before board or card effects. Arrakeen still recruits one troop and draws its own card.

Recall Spy to draw

Keep Spy for future access

At 2 Fremen influence, play Reconnaissance at Sietch Tabr: take hooks or destroy the wall.

Sietch Tabr needs City access, not a Fremen icon. Both choices give 1 water; hooks also recruit one troop, while the other choice may remove the Shield Wall.

Take hooks, one troop and water

Take water and destroy Shield Wall

You have hooks and an unprotected Conflict. Hagga Basin has 1 bonus spice. Pay 1 water and choose.

Take bonus spice, then choose 2 base spice OR one sandworm. Hooks are not spent; worms deploy directly and each has 3 strength.

Harvest 2 base + 1 bonus spice

Summon one worm + take 1 bonus spice

The Conflict is over Imperial Basin and the wall stands. With hooks, choose a Hagga Basin branch.

The wall protects Conflicts at Arrakeen, Spice Refinery and Imperial Basin. It does not block all deployment. Harvest spice here.

Harvest spice

Summon into protected Conflict (check)

Fixed hand: two Convincing Arguments, Diplomacy, Reconnaissance and Signet Ring give 7 Persuasion; High Council adds 2, total 9. Acquire The Spice Must Flow or Prepare the Way.

Count newly revealed cards, not cards used for Agents. Acquired cards enter discard. The Spice Must Flow scores 1 VP on acquisition. Unspent Persuasion expires.

9 Persuasion: The Spice Must Flow

2 Persuasion: Prepare the Way

Public end position: Secure Imperial Basin, your 2 troops + 1 worm = 7 strength vs 8. You hold Contingency Plan (+3). Both players then pass.

Worms double Conflict rewards, not control or icon-match VP. A sole winner takes the Conflict card; matching its Mouse icon to your Objective scores 1 VP. Units return to supply.

Play Contingency Plan: +3 strength

At round end, 10 VP or an empty Conflict deck triggers Endgame. Resolve Endgame Intrigue and wild battle icons; most VP wins.

Break ties by spice, Solari, water and garrisoned troops; FAQ adds most recent Reveal turn if still tied.

Reaching 10 VP does not stop the round immediately.

Each player starts with ten cards, two Agents, one water and three garrisoned troops; set the Swordmaster aside. Four-player games start at 1 VP, otherwise 0 in standard games.

Deal an Objective valid for the player count; it determines first player. Conflict deck: one I, five II and four III, for at most ten rounds.

Without CHOAM, exclude its four Imperium cards, four Intrigue cards and Shaddam.

Source: Official rulebook p. 4

Reveal a Conflict and draw five cards; take Agent or Reveal turns; then Combat, Makers and Recall.

You may Reveal early, but then take no further turns in this phase.

You may Reveal after using only one of your two Agents.

Source: Official rulebook p. 8

Play one hand card, choose one matching icon, and send one Agent to a legal space. Pay the space cost and meet requirements first, then resolve card and space effects in any order.

Cards without icons cannot send Agents. Occupied spaces normally block entry. Effects cannot retroactively fund entry costs.

Without 1 water you cannot enter Desert Tactics, even if the card would later grant water.

Source: Official rulebook p. 9

A Faction space grants one influence. Reaching 2 gives 1 VP, lost if you fall below 2. Reaching 4 gives the track bonus; first to 4 takes its Alliance and 1 VP.

An opponent must exceed the holder to take an Alliance. If the holder falls, FAQ transfer/return rules apply. Track bonuses are not returned.

A tie at 4 lets the existing holder keep the Alliance.

Source: Official rulebook p. 7

Place a Spy at an empty observation post. Recall a connected Spy to Infiltrate an enemy-occupied space, or immediately after Agent placement to draw one card before any effects.

One Spy cannot do both. The Spy Agent icon grants connected-space access without recalling it. Card, costs and requirements still apply.

At Research Station, two connected Spies can do one Infiltrate and one Gather Intelligence, not two draws.

Source: Official rulebook p. 11

Recruit troops from supply to garrison. At a Combat space, deploy any units recruited this turn plus up to two additional units from garrison.

Recruiting at a non-Combat space does not deploy troops; garrisoned units give no strength.

Arrakeen recruits one troop; with three old garrison troops, deploy at most three total.

Source: Official rulebook p. 10

At 2 Fremen influence, City access lets you visit Sietch Tabr for hooks. Hagga Basin costs 1 water for 2 spice or one worm; Deep Desert costs 3 water for 4 spice or two worms.

Bonus spice is additional; hooks are not spent. Worms deploy directly, give 3 strength each, and never enter garrison.

With 1 bonus spice at Hagga Basin, summoning still takes that bonus but not the 2 base spice.

Source: Official rulebook p. 10

While the wall stands, no worm can be summoned to Conflicts at Arrakeen, Spice Refinery or Imperial Basin.

Detonation is optional. Once removed, the wall stays gone; other Conflicts are unprotected.

Even with hooks, a protected Imperial Basin Conflict blocks a worm summon.

Source: Official rulebook p. 10

Reveal remaining hand cards and resolve only their Reveal boxes. Pool Persuasion to buy any number of Imperium Row or Reserve cards, paying and refilling one at a time.

Acquired cards enter discard; acquire effects trigger immediately. Unused Persuasion expires. Agent-turn cards do not also give Reveal effects.

The Spice Must Flow costs 9 Persuasion and gives 1 VP on acquisition; trashing it later does not remove the VP.

Source: Official rulebook p. 12

Each deployed troop is 2 strength, worm 3, sword 1. With no unit, strength is zero. Positive strength earns rank rewards; the sole winner takes the Conflict card.

Tied first each take second reward, no card. Tied second each take third; tied third get nothing. With three or fewer players, third reward is otherwise omitted.

A 7–7 first-place tie awards no Conflict card or battle icon.

Source: Official rulebook p. 14

One or more worms double Conflict rewards; two worms still mean only double. Control and battle icons do not double.

A paid reward may be purchased a second time by paying again, not doubled for free.

A second reward of 2 water and one troop becomes 4 water and two troops.

Source: Official rulebook p. 14

After solely winning a Conflict, take its card and match another face-up Conflict or Objective with that icon in supply; flip both down for 1 VP.

Icons are Crysknife, Desert Mouse and Ornithopter. Wild matches only at Endgame; a card cannot match repeatedly.

A worm-assisted Mouse match still gives 1 VP, not 2.

Source: Official rulebook p. 14

Each empty Maker space gains one bonus spice. Check Endgame; otherwise return Agents to Leaders and pass first player clockwise.

After Combat, troops return to supply and worms to bank; Spies are not automatically recalled each round.

Unvisited Hagga Basin has one more bonus spice next round.

Source: Official rulebook p. 15

The optional module adds 20 standard contracts, marked cards and Shaddam. Take one of two face-up contracts and refill; fulfilment is mandatory, pays rewards and flips the contract in supply.

Multiple contracts for one space complete together. A contract acquired after entering its named space waits for a future visit. Ten additional contracts are only for Rise of Ix.

Without the module, a contract icon gives 2 Solari.

Source: Official rulebook p. 16

Solo faces two Rivals; two humans share one Rival, managed with 37 House Hagal cards and ten Rival cards. Six players form 3v3 teams; Commanders activate Allies and have no armies.

Six uses the reverse board, two Commander boards and mandatory CHOAM; Conflict deck has five II and four III. Compare the team’s three VP totals.

Allies contest strength separately; the team does not pool armies.
