180. Even though we don't want the witches to roam in our lands, we do want their sword grass (1 water and some health), so I trade 1 baradye for that. This keeps some of our cities from shrinking.
181. Bene Gesserit comes back and wants OB, no way. Mushtamal finishes in Arrakeen, I see Wind pass needs more protection, so start a zealot.
182. Kuriya finishes zealot, I start a refinery.
183. Harkonnen wants combat ornithopters, yeah right. Wind Pass has more than enough production, so I start a barracks there too.
184. Suspensor devices in, I choose crystals (we need a little bit more production, so it would be nice if there were crystals revealed in our land). I OB with Ordos and trade a burro weed for his cresote bush.
185. Bangazi (smugglers) captured by Tleilaxu. I think he should be our first war target. I ask for a groundwater from the Fremen and they accept.
186. Crystals in, we find some near Wind Pass and Al Yassanah. In anticipation of the need for culture, I choose Law of Arrakis (can adjust culture and allows spies).
187. No! The Fremen converted to Shai-Hulud!

How do we get rid of that without a missionary for our religion?
188. Landsraad spreads in Wind Pass!


I move our transports and troops towards the west. There are 2 Tleilax infantry right next to our cities there, I anticipate a premptive strike so I station 2 zealots there.
189. Pilot school done in Al Yassanah, I start a bladesman there.
191. Uneventful.
192. Great prophet is born in our holy city. We can use him for bulbing Theocracy (which is a dead end tech though) or do a GA, which will help military production much more, so I begin our GA. The emperor demands crystal from us, no way. I see we can now build the Great Memorial (10 turns without GA) with 50% war weariness from our enemies, so I start it in Wind Pass. Next tech is Maula Pistols.
193-196. Uneventful
197. Maula Pistols in, I choose Hard Conditioning next for more military umph.
199. We finish the Great Memorial, reassign an engineer there and build more troops. Our stack is approaching our target...
