EVERYTHING Dune Imperium - Game Play! "The Salt Will Flow!" 

Wow, you could not have scripted a more epic game. You two do the best playthroughs of anyone, IMHO. Every moment is fun to watch. Please do a rematch! In fact, maybe a monthly game of Dune Imperium is in order! That spice must flow, after all.

Thanks for the video. A few rules corrections/FYIs :) - You can still go the Mentat spot even if the Mentat isn’t there (just for the card draw) - You need to play a card, choose a location, place your agent, and pay the board space cost. THEN you can activate the board space and your card’s agent box in any order. - You are correct on the timing of Harvest Cells (very end of conflict phase) - You do get the two troops from Treachery even when you use it for an Agent Turn. The card has Unload so you get the two troops from the card being trashed, and they must go straight into combat. - If it says Lose 2 Troops and doesn’t say from where, you can choose from combat or from garrison. Great to see my all time favorite game played by one of my favorite playthrough channels!

Worth everything just to see Naveen's face during the final conflict. 🤩

Was on the fence about getting Immortality but after this playthrough, I'm sold. Not many boardgames that a comeback like Naveen's would even be possible. Exciting to the very end. The "watching it played" part of Watch It Played is in good hands!

Naveen, your face lighting up in the last round upset made me laugh. Great playthrough, love to watch these.

This playthrough was it. Such an exciting one in the end especially. Love you guys and all of your playthroughs!

Good job Naveen!🎉 This is my new favorite game of last year and possibly this year. What an epic game of Dune Imperium with all the expansions! Thanks for the great play through!

What a thrilling playthrough. I hope we can see a few more Dune Imperium videos from you.

"i played the long game but i think it was a little short" im busting that out next time i play 🤣

what a fantastic play through, really enjoyable to watch, i really love watching you two play games together, I think the first game I saw was Brass : Lancashire and immediately bought it! your synergy works really well and makes all the games you play very watchable. Keep up the great work and thank you 😊

This was such a great playthrough and very fun to watch! Definitely did not expect the outcome.

Really enjoyed this video, thank you. The pace is perfect - a nice mix of explaining strategy without taking too long for a turn. Looking forward to other play through videos from you both 😊

At 24:20 you can resolve the shipping track rewards in any order, meaning you could take the 2 spice and then buy the restricted ordnance tech using the newly gained spice and -2 discount

Naveen had some cool backdoors into combat. One of most fun strategies is to build a combat heavy reveal deck with the cards like treachery that let you sneak troop on reveal either stealing first or barely commiting anything for 2nd. Your agents just gather resources and gain influence and ppl never are quite sure how much they have to commit.

So exciting at the end! I also thought Monique had that game in the bag. This was the best play through of Dune that I have seen. It also taught me how that second expansion worked in practice which is great as I have just purchased it. Great job you two. Well done Naveen!

Great video! Your playthroughs are always must-see TV, especially an epic Dune face off.

Wow! What a finish 👏 I recently bought the Immortality expansion buy haven't had a chance to play it, and it was great to see it in action. Great playthrough👍

Wow, fantastic game and great narration! That was tense right up until the end. I love this game!

This vid gets a 👍 before even watching. Dune is amazing, looking forward to watching this!

Great playthrough! And wow, what an ending! 👀 I have Dune Imperium, but I don't have either expansion yet. Rise of Ix looks really interesting. Not so sure about Immortality though.

This session was really entertaining to watch. I’m not even sure if the expansions are worth it for us, but wow, unexpectedly tight!

Awesome video. Favorite board game content creators playing my favorite game. Some minor rules goofs but overal very solid gameplay. 1:14:15 Naveen should in fact get the unload/reveal bonus from Treachery, as the card gets trashed which is an unload condition. So he should get 2 more troops in the comflict for free that round. Haven't seen final battle, but Monique could have used invasion ships tech tile to visit Stillsuits, and then use Flagship to put in those 3 troops and 2 more from garrison.

Sooo enthusiastic in the beginning. It shows u love the game. Just bought it today 😊 and as said,Naveens eyes when he went past and win was a big turnaround 😮 what a great game you had.

that was such an intense playthrough - I have found that this is not uncommon in this game which is why it's one of our favorites!

Excited to see this one! Love Dune: Imperium, but haven’t gotten Immortality to the table yet. For these games like this with variable player powers, how do you choose your leader for the games you record? Random or do you pick ones you think will be interesting to play or showcase?

I think Monique could’ve played one of the daggers instead of diplomacy to go to Hagga Basin and deploy 2 more troops. That might’ve been enough! 😊 Awesome playthrough, love the energy and skill of both of you! 🎉

Love how often this game has epic endings. Great video!

Great job! Really enjoyable to watch. Cheers 💙

This playthrough was just as epic as the 2nd movie, and it proves that dune imperium is one of the best board games out there

*SPOILERS* Genuinely thought Naveen was toast in the penultimate round, thought Monique's strategy was great but I can't believe that comeback, wow!

Loved it, but Monique! You should have played your Invasion ships for your last action to go to Stillsuits and add 2 more troops to the conflict! Maybe Naveen had another intrigue to add to the combat, but that would have swung the game. No shame though. It is easy to see these things when you are just watching at home and not swept up in the moment. Great playthrough of a great game.

4p Dune Imperium is my number 1 game!

That was quite the finish! It should be part of the advertising for sure.

Second time watching. This playthrough was better than most movies! Great work.

Great play through, going to get it to the table now with Immortality expansion which I got a while ago but not yet tried!🤓👍

Holy Worm what a comeback!!! That was insane.

That was a really good exciting playthrough and really unexpected! It shows how well balanced this beautiful game is! Love it!

I was so intimidated to introduce the new expansions. Now after watching this video, I never want to play another game without them!

Woooooahhh Naveen with the comback. I felt like I was watching sports with the amount of emotional investment hahah. Epic.

Wow, this wasn't only a demonstration of Dune Imperium and all expansions, but also a demonstration how tide turning this game can get. That's why i love this game. You can still win it, when you won't give up. A purely tournament game.

I was introduced to this game and I bought it next day. is an amazing game. I do not have the full miniature edition but i think is not necessary.

What a dramatic win for Naveen! Congratuation 🎉

Fantastic playthrough guys! Some minor things I saw...and spoliers below! 1:12:49 Hagal should have sent in a Dread and a troop, would have affected deployments...and might have stopped M from getting 2nd - but Naveen was getting 1st anyway. She had enough spice to do what she needed to do next turn anyway. 1:14:00 you ABSOLUTELY get the trash effect on the bottom of Treachery when trashing it, so two more troops. That's why that card rocks. And then you'd have some more in reserve for rd 8 - not sure it would have mattered. (Would have had 1 extra troop, to 21 strength total.) Naveen still would have won that conflict. Wow! I thought that was going to be a stomping at 8-3, but to get to 13 is really something. Show that you're never quite out of it in this game, and the end game cards make a difference (better have 1 trick up your sleeve!). The scarab card might have been the winner. You're right, the retake is HUGE! Also..came upon this rule, and I never knew about it. I suppose it has implications for House Hagal! "Each dreadnought in a Conflict is worth 3 strength. (Also, your dreadnoughts provide strength even if you have no troops in a Conflict-your strength does not become 0, your swords still count, and you may play Combat Intrigue cards.)" !!!

Thank you, it was a great playthrough :)

This is my family's defacto favourite game.... I also have all the expansions and now I am hunting for the promo cards!

WOW!! Tight, exciting ending that was so close!

ALL IN!!!

Wow, what a comeback Naveen 💪

Well played! Thanks for sharing a very entertaining game. 🖖

My goodness, what an epic turn of events!

Love your gameplays! :) You guys have dune uprising in the plans? Super excited for it!

Absolutely epic.

1:27:26 Naveen doesn't get to add 2 troops to conflict at this point. He didn't play an agent to a conflict marker, it was just a specific plot card that gained him 1 cube (practically one of her troops deserted and changed their color). Edit: Basically he wouldn't have won in the last conflict because he would have had 15 strength against Monique's 17. Edit2: And she would've won the game. IT WAS JUST 2 CUBES!!

Good job guys!! it was awesome

to me this game shines at 3 or 4 but it is a very good one - still undecided about Immortality but Ix is a must have.

I thought this was one sided, but that ending! what a comeback!

1:36:00 Naveen priceless face .. well done mate.. well done..

That was a great match. One of my favorite games.

The year of Naveeeeen!

At 47:18 i was just hoping Naveen would go buy Spy satellites tech and get 3 points 😩 Update: He still won the game either way and holy damn that ending was tense!! Great game

This game was awsome.... the battle for the 1st VP was epic 🤟😎

Amazing game. The tension is amazing.

Is playing with both expansions your preferred way of playing?

Hey guys! Do you plan to make a video on Dune Imperium Uprising? Would be great.

39 minutes when one trashes a non in play card lol on a serious note there are quite some rules thus its alright to sometimes miss one c:

Do you guys have any idea when the app update will happen that includes the expansion? As of right now neither Android nor Apple version seems to have the expansion cards that I see your House Hagal use :)

Not sure why the AI player didn't start with garrisoned troops at the start of the game, anyone knows?

Best game ever !

Should the rival move up on the shipping track for winning combat with the shipping reward?

Awesome job Monique and Naveen (thats my nephew's name, so bonus point FTW!). Do you have plans to run it back but do so with the new uprising standalone expansion? Maybe you can get Rondey to join for epic 3 player action! 😁

Pretty sweet game looks like

So House Hagal dreadnought doesn`t cover any space when they win a combat?

Can anybody help, I've been wanting to show a friend the Cuba Libre playthrough with Matthew, Rodney, Monique and Naveen but I can't find it (I can find the 6 hr learning stream with Matthew and Rodney).

Epic

That was awesome! Lol

Klingon is a different universe :)

Isn’t it spice? Not salt?

What’s with the title ? Did they not realize it’s “spice” or is there an inside joke

I second Jon's suggestion of a monthly Dune game. You two do not need Epic mode. What I like about Dune Imperium is the tightness of rhe finish, when someone gets to 8 or 9 everyone is in it. But to see Naveen come back from 3-8 to win even with Monique crushing the tiebreakers. And having a dreadnought instead of a troop would have cost him the game. What can I say, mind blown.
