Dai - Dune: Avventure Nell'imperium - Potere e Pedine: La Corte dell’Imperatore

Description

THE THRONE OF THE GOLDEN LION, THE FULCRUM OF THE KNOWN UNIVERSE. No one is more powerful than the Emperor; but the more his power grows, the greater his ambition. Aligning with House Corrino means allying with the force that controls the Known Universe. Those in the Emperor's favor can wield unspeakable power... as long as they remember where it comes from. But beyond Kaitain, beyond Arrakis, beyond your House, countless other orders and factions operate, each with their own goals and specialized abilities. The deadly swordmasters of Ginaz, the detestable Tleilaxu, and the noble Suk school can also become your allies if you know how to reward them properly. Power and Pawns: The Emperor's Court is a complete 144-page supplement that reveals the secrets of the Imperium and offers an assortment of new factions and campaign options to take your Dune adventures to the next level. No longer mere agents of your House: you are now the heads of the family, and with this wealth and power comes a host of new duties, enemies, and opportunities, provided you know where to look. Power and Pawns: The Emperor's Court includes: - An in-depth look at the Emperor's Court and its home world Kaitain, with details on court life and entertainments and distractions available on the most splendid planet in the Known Universe. - A review of the brutal Sardaukar, the deadliest warriors of the Imperium, and guidelines for using them as characters with a multitude of new abilities. - The secrets of the Tleilaxu laid bare, including the option to use Face Dancers as characters and new options for Mentats. - New talents and skills for graduates of the Ginaz Swordmaster School and the Suk Medical School, including six new ideal options for any character. - The mysterious planet Ix and the advanced technology of House Vernius, finally revealed. - Plenty of details and tips for GMs interested in running political campaigns and creating complex intrigues. - Advice for players aiming to describe how they take control of their House or assume a role within it, or how they destroy the reputation of anyone who stands in their way, friend or ally alike. - Blood and Riches, a complete adventure in which players must resolve a difficult conflict between two great Houses that risks plunging the Imperium into total war. The fate of the House is in your hands; its rise is limited only by your ambition... and perhaps your ruthlessness.
