HOUSE HARKONNEN is the most hated Evil Faction in the entire DUNE Universe. I would venture to say they are hated by most Sci-Fi enthusiast who love to root for The Good Guys. The scheming, limitless greed, and debauchery of Baron Harkonnen is legendary! It is important to me to make these bastards crazy-evil looking and awesome in my DUNE Miniatures Game!
As I state in every DUNE Overview; you can use almost any miniature or model to represent the universe because Frank left it "wide open"! The Fremen and Harkonnen are however less ambiguous. These are the main forces in the long narrative and thus have been illustrated the most. Sure Atreides and Corrino are close, but in my experience with Dune the Frems and Harkers (ultimate good and evil) fight the most in the actual novels. As a reference my Dune Knowledge covers the first three books that Frank wrote, and the first three that Brian wrote (Prelude To Dune). I am aware of the entire universe of course, but I really know these six books well enough to make my cool skirmish game.
When you search around for 'thopters you will find over a hundred designs... no really you will. I love the more modern hard-mean look so of course I will be purchasing several GW FTOL APC's and other fun models!
