Add Ecaz and Moritani to the available factions before setup. Add their 10 Traitor Cards to the Traitor Deck. Choose the participating factions, then remove absent factions from the Traitor Deck. With all three expansions there are 12 faction choices. The recommended game remains at most 6 players.

Choose Homeworlds, Nexus Cards, the three new Treachery Cards and Discovery Tokens independently before setup. Any combination works without either new faction. Only powers marked Advanced require the Advanced Game.

Each new faction has a shield, player sheet, player marker, 5 standard leaders, 20 forces and 2 Alliance cards. Ecaz adds 11 Ambassadors. Moritani adds 6 Terror tokens and 1 Atomics Aftermath token. Duke Prad Vidal is an additional leader with no Traitor Card.

The optional modules add 12 Nexus Cards; 13 Homeworld Cards and matching reserve discs; one each of Recruits, Reinforcements and Harass & Withdraw; and 7 Spice Cards with 8 Discovery tokens. Use only the components for your chosen modules.

Learn the factions first, then the optional modules. The core turn sequence, battle procedure and victory checks apply unless a rule here gives an exception.

Start with 12 spice, 6 forces in the Imperial Basin and 14 in reserves. Your free revival is 2 forces.

Take the Ecaz Ambassador and 5 random Ambassadors from the other 10. Keep the token identities in your available supply visible. Keep used random tokens separate until you have used all five.

An early alliance makes co-occupation available. Place Ambassadors where another faction is likely to enter, and decide whether the benefit is worth interrupting that entry.

When another faction enters a stronghold containing an Ambassador, you may trigger it immediately. Your ally, Bene Gesserit advisors and the faction matching that token do not trigger it. Resolve the effect, then set the token aside.

A triggered Ambassador interrupts the entering faction's action. For example, resolve a Guild Ambassador shipment before that player continues with movement.

You may choose to have your ally benefit from a triggered Ambassador effect. This is Ecaz's alliance advantage.

After all 5 random Ambassadors in the supply have triggered, return them to the unused tokens and draw a new random supply of 5. The used Bene Gesserit token stays out of the game. Storms and explosions return affected Ambassadors to your supply.

Ambassadors can be lost to storm and explosions. Terror tokens survive both. Advisors are excluded from Ambassador triggers but may trigger Terror.

While allied, Ecaz and its ally count as one faction for territory occupancy. Their forces may enter and remain together. In a stronghold they occupy one of the two faction places, so an enemy may also be present.

If both allies collect spice in a desert territory, divide the collection by agreement. If you cannot agree, divide it as evenly as possible and give the odd spice to Ecaz's ally.

When Ecaz and its ally co-occupy Arrakeen or Carthag, both have ornithopters and a collection rate of 3 spice per force. An ally shipping in to join Ecaz there receives those benefits that turn.

A co-occupied stronghold counts only once. Ecaz controls it. The alliance wins with 3 strongholds if both allies co-occupy all three. Otherwise use the normal alliance requirement.

All three Tech Tokens must be held by one player to count as a stronghold. Ecaz beside its Fremen ally in Sietch Tabr does not prevent Fremen special victory. Homeworlds are not territories, so Occupy does not apply there.

Once battle order is determined, choose whether Ecaz or its ally is the faction fighting the battle. That faction supplies the leader and Treachery Cards and uses its applicable battle powers.

Regardless of which faction fights, dial the ally's forces. Add half the Ecaz forces in the territory, rounded up, to that dial. The Ecaz contribution needs no spice support in Advanced play.

Use the ally's normal force strengths and support rules. Fedaykin retain their strength when present. Fremen forces need no spice for full strength in Advanced play. In Advanced play, the faction chosen to fight pays any required spice support.

On a win, retain half the Ecaz forces, rounded down, and send the rest to the Tanks. Resolve the ally's dialed losses normally. On a loss, resolve both forces under the normal losing rules.

Before Traitors are drawn, set aside a random Ecaz Traitor Card face up. Never add it to the deck. Then draw Traitors normally. Karama cannot stop Loyalty.

If Ecaz and its ally co-occupy Arrakeen, Carthag or Tuek's Sietch during Spice Collection, each receives the full stronghold income. Karama may stop Ecaz from collecting for these co-occupied strongholds that phase. Its ally collects normally.

Once per game, spend a Karama Card to use your Special Karama Power. If you played neither a weapon nor a defense, add the difference between your leader disc and the opposing leader disc to your number dialed. Use the absolute gap between printed leader values; do not include skill or Kwisatz Haderach bonuses in that gap.

A Bene Gesserit ally may send Spiritual Advisors with Ecaz shipments and may use Intrusion when Ecaz enters a territory containing its fighters. Advisors remain advisors where applicable; they do not become fighting forces through Occupy.

Start with 12 spice. After all other factions set up, put 6 forces in any unoccupied territory. Keep 14 in reserves. Your free revival is 2 forces. Keep all 6 Terror tokens hidden.

You usually add only one Terror token each turn. Allow time for the threats to build, then decide whether an offered alliance is more valuable than revealing a token.

When another faction other than your ally ships or moves into that stronghold, you may reveal the token and apply its effect to the entering faction. This includes advisors. Your own forces do not trigger it.

Revealed Terror tokens leave the game after their effect, except when Extortion returns. Storm and explosions do not remove Terror tokens.

An entering reinforcement group may trigger Terror even if its faction already has forces there. Adding forces through an effect that is neither shipment nor movement does not itself trigger Terror.

A Richese No-Field entering a stronghold may trigger Terror, even a 0 No-Field. Apply the revealed Terror effect to Richese.

Revealing a No-Field already present does not trigger Terror. Neither does placing Tleilaxu forces after a Face Dancer reveal. These forces were represented by what entered earlier.

You normally choose whether to reveal Terror when the entry happens. If you offer Enemy of My Enemy and the faction refuses, you must reveal the token.

Atomics destroys every force there, including Moritani forces and advisors. It is separate from Family Atomics, the Treachery Card that destroys the Shield Wall.

The hand-limit penalty is ongoing from this turn forward. Check Moritani and its ally against their reduced limits; a random card must be discarded when a hand exceeds its limit.

When a faction other than Ecaz would trigger Terror, you may offer an alliance before revealing the token. If it accepts, both of you break any existing alliance, form the new alliance and return the unrevealed token to your supply.

If it refuses, reveal and resolve the token. Enemy of My Enemy permits an alliance outside a Nexus. It cannot be offered to Ecaz.

When your ally loses a battle that had a winner, it may keep one Treachery Card played in the battle that it could have kept had it won. A card requiring discard even on a win cannot be retained through this benefit.

After losing a battle, if no Traitor was called and the opposing leader disc survived, you may reveal a Traitor Card for another leader of that opponent's faction. If that leader is not in the Tanks, kill it and collect its value in spice. Zoal pays 3.

During Mentat Pause, set the revealed card aside face up as a marker and draw a new Traitor Card. Use Assassinate Leaders once against each faction. If you ever reveal a Traitor Card normally, you lose this advantage for the rest of the game.

You may expose one of your own leaders captured by Harkonnen as a traitor normally. You may not use Assassinate Leaders on that captured leader. Karama cannot prevent Assassinate Leaders.

Once per game, after losing a battle, spend a Karama Card to use your Special Karama Power. Choose whether the opponent must keep or discard any or all Treachery Cards they played. This power is separate from the alliance benefit.

Ecaz gains Vidal through its Ambassador. Ecaz keeps him until it uses him in a battle or Moritani takes him. The Ambassador may give him to a newly formed ally for that turn.

At the end of Shipment and Movement, Moritani gains Vidal if it faces battles in at least 2 strongholds, excluding battles involving Ecaz, and Vidal is not in the Tanks. Take him from the faction currently controlling him.

Moritani keeps Vidal for one battle. At turn end, set him aside if he is neither in the Tanks nor captured. Moritani may gain him again on a later turn if it qualifies. Gaining him does not permit a second battle use in the same turn.

Only Ecaz may revive Vidal, including through the Ghola Treachery Card. Ecaz may always pay 5 spice to revive him, regardless of how many other leaders are in the Tanks.

Revival returns Vidal to the set-aside supply. It does not give Ecaz control. Ecaz must acquire him through its Ambassador, or Moritani through its battle condition.

Ecaz may revive its other leaders normally when at least 5 leaders, counting Vidal, are in the Tanks. It may do so even while one leader remains alive.

The Ecaz Nexus Cunning and the Ecaz Homeworld's Occupied effect give specific exceptions to ordinary Vidal control or revival. Apply those card effects when their optional modules are in use.

Karama may prevent Ecaz from placing any Ambassadors that turn. It does not cancel an Ambassador's triggered effect. Loyalty is a setup procedure and cannot be stopped.

Play Karama before Battle Plans are formed to stop Occupy's battle cooperation. The faction fighting must dial its own forces; its ally's forces count zero. This does not prevent the alliance winning with 3 co-occupied strongholds.

Karama may prevent Moritani from placing or moving a Terror token, acquiring Vidal, or forming an Enemy of My Enemy alliance. Canceling acquisition does not remove Vidal already held. If the alliance is prevented, Moritani may still reveal Terror.

Karama cannot stop Moritani's Assassinate Leaders or an existing Terror token's reveal. It has no effect on Homeworld advantages or penalties. Ordinary Karama cannot cancel another faction's Special Karama Power.

Use this optional module with any faction selection. Each faction takes its Homeworld Card and matching reserve disc. Keep its reserve forces on that disc. Start with the full-art High Threshold side face up.

A card's threshold counts the native reserve forces there. At or above that threshold, use High. Below it, flip to Low and apply the Low effect. Check the state as the reserve count changes. Salusa Secundus has a special overlap rule.

Low normally adds 1 free revival and 1 spice when collecting CHOAM Charity. The extra Charity comes directly from the Bank, not CHOAM. It does not change who is eligible for Charity. Salusa Secundus gives neither bonus.

Homeworlds are not territories. Ecaz Occupy does not extend to them, and Moritani cannot place Terror there. Karama cannot cancel their advantages or penalties. CHOAM's Tupile reverses the usual pattern, with a High penalty and a Low advantage.

Use your normal shipment to send reserves to another faction's Homeworld. Pay 1 spice per force, or the Guild's half price. This shipment triggers the Heighliners Tech Token when that module is in use.

Forces may ship between Homeworlds. Only the Spacing Guild may ship from Arrakis to a Homeworld as a cross-shipment, unless Junction's High advantage grants that service. Otherwise the way to add forces to your own Homeworld is revival.

You cannot form an alliance with a faction whose forces occupy your Homeworld. You cannot ship to or occupy your ally's Homeworld.

Bene Gesserit cannot send advisors to Homeworlds. Fighters on another faction's Homeworld cannot flip to advisors.

Become the Occupier by defeating the native faction and retaining forces there, or immediately when your faction is alone there. Retain that status while your forces remain. Merely arriving at a defended Homeworld does not immediately suppress its native powers.

Apply the card's Occupied effect. Its Low penalty continues while occupied. Some Homeworlds also pay an Occupier income during Spice Collection, even in Basic play. Collect that income from the Bank.

An Occupier may immediately share spice collected for occupying a Homeworld with its ally.

Add the Homeworld's printed battle strength for its current state to the native faction's dialed total. Invaders cannot call Traitors or Face Dancers there. The native faction retains its normal applicable rights.

In a Lasgun-Shield explosion, both factions lose and leaders die normally. Invading forces are lost normally. The native faction sends only a number of forces equal to its current Homeworld Battle strength to the Tanks, regardless of its dial. Other native forces remain.

In Basic play, use Kaitain only. Put all Emperor reserves there and treat Sardaukar as normal forces.

In Advanced play, add Salusa Secundus. Start and revive Sardaukar there; start and revive normal forces on Kaitain. The Emperor may use its normal movement to move forces between these two worlds.

One Emperor shipment may contain forces from both Homeworlds, whether shipping to Arrakis or another Homeworld.

On Salusa Secundus, flip from High to Low below 2 Sardaukar, and from Low to High above 2. At exactly 2, keep its current state. Salusa adds no extra free revival or Charity.

Occupied

Occupier gains half, rounded down, of card payments to you.

At the end of Spice Blow and Nexus, after alliances are made, if a Nexus occurred and at least one alliance exists, each unallied player may draw one Nexus Card. If already holding one, that player may discard it and draw a replacement. Keep it secret.

Discard your Nexus Card to enter any alliance, including one formed through a faction ability. After using a card, discard it. At a later qualifying Nexus you may draw again if unallied. Shuffle the discards when the deck runs out.

Use the one role matching the named faction's status. Betrayal applies when another player controls it. Cunning applies when it is your faction. Secret Ally applies when it is absent. Secret Ally grants its stated effect, rather than forming a normal faction alliance.

Whenever you draw your own faction's Nexus Card, you may discard it immediately and draw another, in Basic or Advanced play. Some Cunning effects require Advanced rules.

Cunning

Force your opponent to show you a second element of their Battle Plan.

Secret Ally

During a battle, force your opponent to reveal your choice of one element of their Battle Plan: leader, weapon, defense, or number dialed.

Cunning

You may flip any or all groups of your advisors to fighters during your turn in the Shipment and Movement phase (all troops in a territory must end up the same type).

Secret Ally

During a battle, you may use the Bene Gesserit Voice advantage of forcing your opponent to play or not play a Treachery Card.

Play the Bene Gesserit Secret Ally effect before Atreides Prescience is used.

Cunning

You may discard any Treachery Card to use any Worthless Card special effect.

Secret Ally

You may either discard a Worthless Card and gain 2 spice during Spice Collection, or after winning a battle, you may look at a random card in your opponent's hand (not used in battle).

Cunning

Gain Duke Vidal for this turn (even if he is captured, in the Tanks, or a ghola, overriding Moritani). At the end of this turn, set him aside normally.

Secret Ally

Force one player to reveal whether or not they have any of your leaders as Traitors (though not which leaders).

Cunning

Before formulating your Battle Plan, you may count 5 of your troops as Sardaukar if you have none in that battle.

Secret Ally

Keep your spice when buying a Treachery Card (you must show that you have the amount you would have paid) or, revive 3 additional troops beyond Revival limits during Revival for free.

Cunning

If a sandworm appears in a territory with no troops, any troops you have in one sand territory may 'ride the worm' to any territory subject to storm and occupancy rules.

Secret Ally

You may either avoid losing troops to Shai-Hulud, or revive a total of 3 of your troops for free during Revival.

Cunning

Draw a Traitor Card and add it to your hand at any time. Then secretly shuffle any one of your Traitor Cards back into the Traitor Deck.

Secret Ally

During the Mentat Pause, draw two Traitor Cards and add them to your hand. Then shuffle two Traitor Cards you hold back into the Traitor deck.

A Traitor Card Tleilaxu keeps through Harkonnen Secret Ally is a Face Dancer, not a traitor.

Cunning

Before formulating your Battle Plan, you may count all of your Suboids in all battles this turn as counting full strength (without needing to support them with spice).

Secret Ally

You may discard a Treachery Card you just purchased during Bidding and then draw the top card of the Treachery deck.

Cunning

When you place a Terror token, it may be placed in any territory on Arrakis, even one that already has a Terror token.

Secret Ally

When you lose a battle that had a winner, keep one Treachery Card you played in the battle you would have been able to keep had you won.

Betrayal removes one token anywhere on the board and returns it unrevealed. Moritani may place Terror normally afterward.

Cunning

You may use 2 No-Field tokens for a single shipment (still counting it as shipping 1 troop). Reveal one token immediately, to place in front of your shield.

Secret Ally

You may discard a Treachery Card you just purchased during Bidding and then draw the top card of the Treachery deck.

Cunning

You may make a second Shipment immediately after performing your Shipment and Movement. The second Shipment does not get to move unless you play Hajr.

Secret Ally

Your shipment is at Guild rates, and you may also ship cross-planet or back to your reserves as your Shipping action.

Cunning

Set aside all revealed Face Dancers. Secretly draw replacements and then shuffle the set-aside Face Dancers into the Traitor deck.

Secret Ally

Revive one of your leaders for free and up to 5 of your troops for 1 spice each during Revival.

Double the current free revival rate before other effects adjust it. Include the Low Homeworld bonus before doubling, as the booklet specifically requires. Doubling a zero rate still gives zero.

Reinforcements and Harass & Withdraw occupy a weapon or defense place in a plan, but count as neither. If Atreides asks for that element, say you are not playing a weapon or defense there. You do not have to reveal the special card through that request.

In a co-occupied Ecaz battle, the card's player returns only that player's own undialed forces to reserves. Treat the other ally's forces normally.

Shuffle the 7 new Spice Cards into the Spice Deck: Great Maker and 6 Discovery blows. Mix the 8 tokens face down. Keep the four Hiereg and four Smuggler tokens available as separate random pools.

When a Discovery Spice Card is drawn, destroy existing spice and all forces in its indicated spice territory, including Fremen and advisors. Place 6 spice in its indicated sector, unless storm prevents placement. This destruction is special to a Discovery blow.

Then place one random token of the indicated type face down at the separate territory and sector shown on the card. The token destination and the spice blow are different places.

In storm order, every player votes yes or no on a Nexus. A strict majority must vote yes. A tie means no Nexus.

Afterward, Fremen may ride with any number of reserve forces to any territory permitted by storm and occupancy rules. This replaces riding from an on-board territory or placing the Shai-Hulud token.

Karama may destroy Fremen forces in the devoured territory, but it does not prevent the separate reserve ride.

During Spice Collection, a faction with non-advisor forces in a token's territory may look at it and choose whether to reveal it. If it stays hidden, a qualifying faction has the same opportunity next Spice Collection.

Fremen may look at a hidden Hiereg token at any time without revealing it. The Spacing Guild may do the same with hidden Smuggler tokens.

Five tokens are locations. Leave a revealed location in place. Revealing does not occupy it. At the start of the next turn, before storm and before Ixian stronghold movement, factions in its parent territory may move some or all non-advisor forces there into the newly revealed location.

A revealed location is a territory within its parent territory. In normal movement, enter the parent, then spend another territory of movement to enter the location.

Shipping into a revealed location costs the stronghold rate. Forces inside are immune to storm and sandworms. Only Jacurutu Sietch is expressly a stronghold for victory.

Before a later storm, factions may enter locations revealed during the previous turn. Do this before Ixian stronghold movement and storm movement.

During Revival, Recruits may change the current free rate and limit. At the end of Revival, Ecaz may pay to place Ambassadors.

During Shipment and Movement, resolve Ambassador and Terror entry effects immediately. At the end of the phase, check whether Moritani qualifies to gain Vidal.

During Spice Collection, inspect Discoveries and collect applicable Homeworld or location income. During Mentat Pause, resolve Extortion, Moritani's Terror placement or movement, and Assassinate Leaders card replacement. Check victory with current occupancy and applicable module effects.

For Intrigue, deal each player two factions. Each secretly chooses one, then all reveal together.
