Description
Get ready to dive into the intricate world of Dune with the CHOAM & Richese expansion, designed by the talented team of Bill Eberle, Jack Kittredge, Peter Olotka, Greg Olotka, and Jack Reda. Released in 2022, this expansion adds two new factions to the mix, bringing the total number of players to 3-6, and introducing a fresh layer of complexity to the game. The Combine Honnete Ober Advancer Mercantiles, or CHOAM, is a powerhouse of economic influence, controlling the flow of wealth and commerce across the cosmos. As a player, you'll need to navigate the intricate web of alliances and rivalries to maximize your dividends and stay ahead of the game. As you explore the world of Dune, you'll also encounter House Richese, a family of ingenious inventors and entrepreneurs who have fallen on hard times. With their fortunes dwindling, they're forced to sell off their prized creations to stay afloat. The CHOAM & Richese expansion introduces new mechanics like Leader Skills, which allow you to assign powerful abilities to your leaders, and Advanced Stronghold Cards, which give you a strategic edge in battle. With playtime lasting around 120 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in the game's complex world of alliances, auctions, and variable player powers. While the rules may take some time to learn, the payoff is well worth it – so gather your friends, get ready to negotiate, scheme, and battle your way to victory, and experience the thrill of Dune like never before.
