Advantages

MAJORITY SHAREHOLDER

During the CHOAM charity phase you must give a CHOAM Directorship to any player, or take 1 from any player, paying them 2 Spice per CHOAM Directorship they have.
Player/s without a CHOAM Directorship who collected the most Spice from spiceblows last round must be prioritized to receive one.

CHOAM DIRECTORSHIPS

There are three CHOAM directorships. Keep Directorships in front of shields for public view. If anyone wins a battle against someone with a Directorship, they take one of their choice from them.
Controlling all three Directorships counts as a Stronghold for winning the game (e.g., if you have forces in Arrakeen and Carthag, and all three Directorships, you win the game). Allies can not share control of Directorships, to qualify as a stronghold, one player must control all three Directorships.
Each Directorship gives the holder an ability.

  • Directorship of Taxation. Collect all Space from bids.
  • Directorship of Trade. During Spice collection you can discard any number of cards to get 3 Spice from the Spice bank.
  • Directorship of Arms. You can revive up to 6 forces. (Advanced combat Spice goes to you.)

All CHOAM charity is drawn, 1 Spice at a time, from the players holding the Directorships in storm order. If a player cannot pay out CHOAM charity, the Directorship is returned to the front of your screen and they take CHOAM charity from the Spice bank.

sardaukar

Your 5 starred forces, elite Sardaukar, have a special fighting capability. They are worth two normal forces in battle and in taking losses against all opponents except Fremen. Your starred forces are worth just 1 force against Fremen. They are treated as 1 force in revival. Only 1 Sardaukar force can be revived per turn.

Alliance

You and you ally can freely share Spice between each other.
