Tell me you haven't read the books without telling me you haven't read the books. Your ENTIRE history is 100% wrong. Salusa was an earth like planet, it didn't become uninhabitable til it got nuked in the Butlerian Jihad. It wasn't populated by colonists, it was the Emperor's prison planet. The Sardaukar were recruited from the prisoner population. The entire reason the Emperor helped the Baron take down House Atreides was because the Duke had trained a small military unit to within a hairs breadth of being equal to the Sardaukar. The significance of the Fremen was based in the fact that Dune was just as harsh an environment as Salusa, added to the Harkonnen fist they lived under for 80 odd years. Groups of Fremen women, children, and elderly could take down Sardaukar patrols, remarking only that "they fought well".

Bullcrap - Salusa Secundus was once the capital of the Imperium. House Corrino was forced to abandon it for Katain after another noble family detonated a nuclear bomb there, rendering the planet barely habitable. The Sardaukar army emerged from the planet after it was declared a prison. They weren't around during the Butlerian Jihad.

The one thing I've always hated, which the recent movie proved, is how abject BS the concept of that impact shield is (which you start going into further at 15:11). Even with the shield working exactly as stated where only "slow" stuff can get through it, ranged weapons should still have been astoundingly dominant. 1) We see many times that someone or something that is hit by a long range projectile that the shield stops is still subject to kinetic energy and momentum; they get pushed backwards, so some of the kinetic energy dispersed from the shield goes into them and they are definitely demonstrated to experience pain in these instances. But the weapons used looked to be small needle guns firing lower velocity darts; now picture something a lot higher caliber (for you Counterstrike fans out there, imagine a hit from the AWP)...such large amounts of kinetic energy dispersed into the wearer WILL cause damage. 2) Even accepting only slow stuff can get through the shield and ignoring the kinetic energy transfer I mentioned in point 1, there are a VAST number of other options for applying lethal "slow" damage at range. Flamethrowers/firebomb projectiles, canister-firing weapons that on impact with a shield spray out large quantities of acid or toxic gas, sound cannons, swarms of microdrones with toxic or explosive payloads like the one launched at Paul from the dude stuck in the wall...so many options that are better than swords.

Silly blood gathering system for a super rainy planet. The blood will just get washed out by the rain. Disappointing all around. Ach, poor design! They do not LOOK anything at all like the way they're described in the novels. They're said to all have a similar-ish appearance - bird of prey like, with an exceptionally arrogant mien. Because they're exceptionally arrogant. Even if one is covered up in some concealing outfit, he can recognized simply by the way he stands or walks. And, although they came from that very harsh planet, once they take up their official positions and duties, they live in splendidly luxurious and indeed, decadent surroundings. Where they get whatever they want. Bit of a let down to just see some scraggy beardy middle aged balding geezers. Look like hills people from Deliverance. More untouched by dentistry, than elite weapons made flesh. Their bad hygiene is what's lethal, not their fighting skills.

guns could fix alot of things..

Weird to acknowledge the blood rite scene as Villeneuve's embellishment, then talk about it as though it were canon. Also, the fight scenes in the movie absolutely DO NOT display any slow-blade technique whatsoever. Not even the training scene with Paul and Gurney(you just see them tussle, then the end product of both having gotten their blade through). Strange it isn't pointed out more. I think the fighting style necessary for personal shields would've been much different - focusing on disarming, with some grappling for control, penetration, and the kill. Engagements might've been pretty drawn out, therefore, with many ending up on the ground for some duration. That doesn't seem like it would translate well to large-scale battle. It also would put Paul at an insurmountable disadvantage against someone like Gurney. And it seems that the only tenable plans would *always be guaranteed* to sacrifice the best troops of at least one side. Think about it. They'd get an idea of proportion of casualties, along with the rate they were losing, then send in their best to try to turn it around, with strategic timing. Then maybe they'd still stay ahead despite the other side sending in their best afterward. Maybe. It would be decisive, for sure. So there would be even greater disincentive for war to begin with, even than that of feudal times. That might be a relatively little-known fact, though. Real time tactics would take on greater focus - in proximity, accuracy, and scale, with all the advancements achieved in intelligence and technology. So it would have an immense impact on militarism as a whole, such that single combat/dueling would probably be favored. Kind of hard to imagine how things would play out, otherwise. If sci-fi is supposed to be informed by some measure of realism, then it doesn't have to not make sense. And war already doesn't. So it's like there was a deliberate parallel in the story, but with a twist. The ideal-future-for-all wasn't necessarily the aim. It is fiction, after all. Right? The narrator basically admits it @21:30. So there'll be some holes, inevitably. Anyhow, as I've thought out how war would more likely be, I've come to the conclusion that people would have to deliberately maintain a conflict culture - especially in a future involving such things as interstellar(and even more especially intergalactic) travel, in order to have war. They'd have such means of production and communication, access and implementation, that there would be extremely low motivation for it all-around. They might have some kind of "assurance" that the consequences wouldn't necessarily be catastrophic, however. At least regarding the basic aspect of loss of life. But with that would come a devaluation thereof. Say, if people could be regrown/"cloned". They'd just see life as disposable, and not care about anything anymore. Good thing that's not happening - or at least won't succeed despite such ideas and plans being generally laid out - even popularized somewhat already. Yeah, these stories might be seen as implicit messages if one were to start thinking about it like that.

Are there any female Sardaukar?

Idk.. from what I saw in Vilneuve's Dune, Sardaukar didn't seem that formidable.. I mean if movie wanted to show them as very "scary" and "formidable", I don't think it's enough to show their homeworld and how they sacrifice people for some religious preparation for battle.. it especially didn't work when Dunkwn Idaho singlehandedly took down dozens of them, and even in his "last stand" he killed something like 6 or 8 of them.. I get that Idaho was suppose to be this badass, but if you want to create an illusion that Sardaukar are "elite" warriors, getting hammered by a single guy doesn't help that image.. I think in the movie, when the attack on Arakis have started, initially it should've been Harkonen troops vs Atreidis troops, and Atreidis troops getting upper hand even when caught by surprise, and only when Sardaukar engaged directly did the battle turn around.. it also could've shown how Sardaukar individually were taking on 2 or 3 Atreidis soldiers and defeating them.. Now THAT would've shown how formidable they are..

@alexisentisma

Yeah, to support your general tactics thing, they indeed would've fulfilled their agreement as long as House Harkonnen was willing to carry some of the life-cost themselves. And they would've published Idaho's face beforehand so whomever found him would know to pile on him as much as possible - NOT give him the opportunity to just cut them down successively. We could've gotten a scene like that, where he was only able to take 3 or 4 at most, and it still would've followed several other scenes of him showing his prowess. The Sardaukar didn't get their reputation by being tough but also stupid.

The Sardukars was the most fearsome warriors but not anymore. They were so feared that that only a whisper of a threat of a Sardukar would end wars. So the Sardukar of the books have not been in any significant battle for almost a thousand years. They have grown soft and with a too high an opinion of teir own ability and worth. the Freemen did not respect them they saw them only as easy prey. If you are going to do lore videos on the Dune universe at least read the books first.

"major significant battle".... They invaded and overthrew House Ix....less than 10 years before the events of the original Dune book.

In frank herberts books when the fremen rescued paul and jessica stilgar noticed that some of the men within the harkonnens displayed superior fighting and it did take pauls trainind from gurney duncan and thufir to ultimately defeat their enimies

@@kraxus03 And that was considered remarkable because Ix's machines were combatively potent? I've never read the books myself, just seen the movies & miniseries, and familiarized further through things I read on the internet.

this video is repetitive and not well done

Too annoying.
