About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey there, Dune fans! Ready for another dose of intrigue and battle in the universe of Arrakis? The 'Ruthless Leadership' promo card has arrived to supercharge your Dune: Imperium game. This little gem was offered to those who pre-ordered 'Bloodlines', so if you've got it, you're already one step ahead!

With this card in hand, your Agents gain a new trick. If you play smart and have Sardaukar Commanders in the Conflict, you can trash two cards from your deck to activate a powerful ability. And it doesn't stop there! Upon revealing the card, you secure one Persuasion and one Battle point, the basics for anyone looking to stand out. But the real kicker is: if your Persuasion reaches 6 or more, you get the chance to send more troops into the fray. That means more firepower to dominate the conflict!

This card is shuffled into your main draw deck right from the start, so it enters play organically without disrupting the game's flow. It's the type of card that adds an extra layer of strategy, especially for players who enjoy optimizing every move and striving for victory at any cost. If you're already a fan of Dune: Imperium and enjoy expansions and promos that make the game even richer, this card is for you. It doesn't drastically change the rules, but it provides that 'boost' that makes a difference in the most contested matches. DireWolf did a great job bringing this additional option for those who live and breathe the world of Dune!
