Well considering that in Dune Universe if a laser beam hits a shield's force field it causes a 2-10 megaton nuclear explosion it kinda changes a lot. Dune is an interesting universe where this specific quirk created a futuristic sci-fi envirnoment where only melee is feasible. Guns/cannons/plasma/pulse/Tesla weaponry are basically useless and laser weaponry is only useful from like the orbit. So you have space battles waged like ancient greeks, where only close quarter boarding actions are functional. Otherwise you either just let devastating rocket barrages blow you from the sky or turn on the shield and risk a total annihilation of both fleets.

@Emanon...

Жыл бұрын

@@Galejro Not really. Having a shield in a space battle over great distances poses a greater risk for the defender if the attacker uses lasweapons. Beam weapons would therefore still be viable, all things considered. You either get blown up if you have a shield or torn to pieces by weapons you could only see the moment they hit if you don't have a shield. It would probably explain why space battles were very short... Herbert didn't really spend a lot of time or effort describing space warfare in his works, which is a shame.

Something you don't mention is that by the time of the events of Dune, the Sardaukar were not as they had once been. Herbert mentions that they had lost some of their warrior spirit, and that cynicism had sapped their adherence to their religion. They were still probably the best army in Imperial Space, but they were not the killing machines that founded the Empire.

It also lets the people making tech manuals give all sorts of HUD systems on the Sardaukar helmets, giving them the Dune equivalent of the Future soldier program. They can claim that the Sardaukar helmet gives the wearer optimized displays with false light setups to prevent blinding/darkened rooms, constantly updated 3D map showing building layout, known enemy forces, known Sardaukar forces, etc. Add in some internal oxygen supplies so the Sardaukar troops don't have to worry about stale air inside their shields, body armor to prevent slow blades from easily killing them, etc.

If you enjoy reading then I recommend picking up the book, however it is a lot of information that is never really explained in the beginning so it is not a light read. Honestly Lord of the Rings is a way easier book to read because everything is pretty well explained and described in detail on what is going on. In Dune, it just assumes that somehow you know everything about the setting. The best way to read Dune is to watch videos like this and essentially spoil the plot for yourself because it literally makes zero sense if you don’t haha.

I never got the sense that fish speakers were better than fremen or sardauker. Just that they had a different purpose that an all female army better fulfilled

FS were just a different tool. Sardaukar were the hammer, Fremen the scalpel, FS the spear.

Sardaukar ruled the galaxy for over 8000 years Fish speakers for over 3000 Fremen didn't even last 100 Clearly, Fremen were most effective and certainly not lucky to fight on their home turf with the support of nuclear weapons and colossal worms

That was a fantastic video. Riveting stuff!

Awesome video, I hope you do more Dune lore videos!

Hopefully you guys do the Fremen next!

There is so much backstory and I’m here for it all.. the spice must flow

Really well-made video, I really love it

Well that was eye opening. I assumed the Sardaukar were from an independent planet that the ruling house managed to get under their heal and psychologically dominate… turns out the Emperor and his house ARE Sardaukar. This all makes so much more sense now. Thanks !

There IS technically a House Sardaukar and there is some surface pretense that House Corrino and the Sardaukar are linked but still seperate entities to hide the fact that Salusa Secundus was the birthworld of the Sardaukar and that it is where they get their recruits from. Many just assume the Imperial levies are where Sardaukar come from, not the brutal prison planet. The Atreides do figure it out and that is why they are so eager to get the Fremen on their side as allies. So they can use their own pretty awesome troops combined with Fremen units and overwhelm the trap that was Arrakis.

I'm a fan of the old version of David Lynch's Dune. It's strange that he didn't want to sign it. Greetings!🖖

Still, the Fremen considered the Sardaukar to be good fighters, and respected them to some degree.

I mean, we've seen mothers lift cars for their kids. If Sardaukar can match the space sand folk version of that, I'm impressed

The Emperor commands it. It is done.

Absolutely amazing!

So interesting!! Excellent content!

They have served the will of house Corrino for millennia. The killer's without mercy, the soldier fanatics. The personal guards to the Padishah emperors. The deadliest fighting force in the known universe, The Sardaukar.

They were the most feared, until they crossed paths with Fremen.

Beautiful work 👍

I keep coming back to this video only to end it a few minutes in... trying to work my way through all of the Dune series of books. The originals written by Frank Herbert, and the continuation of the series as well as several prelude stories written by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson. I must say they both have done an amazing job. I will finish the video when I'm done!

Ah yes, Sardaukar, the Imperial stormtroopers before Imperial stormtroopers... Should be deadly, but are killed left and right by the rebels

I think it’s made pretty evident that the Sardaukar get by partially on reputation by the time of the first book. They were founded as a conquering army, but afterwards became the product of a glorified prison planet. They’re still plenty tough though and make short work of the Atriedies, but the Fremen are depicted as a martial culture above all else. War for the Fremen is a way of life, to the point where they don’t even hold someone killing their spouse against them. It’s not one-sided with the Fremen either. The Fremen take what we today would call “very heavy” casualties during even their successful operations.

@@huanquocmanh416 Not really. Plot armor would be a non-canonical reason why someone can’t be hurt or die. The fremen being so unstoppable is explained in detail. The fremen take plenty of losses to the sardaukar. The sardaukar win some engagements even at great loss

Nice to see the Sardaukar having the Brabantian heraldry 😁

This was a very entertaining video but I can't wait to see the video on the fremen!!

FANTASIC....really great content

Is that Attila Total War music I hear?

First half I imagined Salusa Secundus as Catachan from WH40k, but by the second half, I now see it as Space Australia from DBZ Abridged! “Go Space Broncos!” :D

A really surprising topic to tackle. I never expected this. Gonna look forward for anything dune related since I've watched the movies.

MORE OF THESE VIDEOS PLEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!!!! 10/10
