    On topic: I think everything that Westwood made after RA was total LULZ. If I recall correctly, EBFD was made by another team "in cooperation" with Westwood, but they didn't make it in the credits.

    Well, Emperor was an RTS game first. Not an outlet for Dune material first.

    Given that, I think they did a highly commendable job. I'd rather be playing a well-balanced RTS game with a wide variety of tactics and army configurations to choose from, along with stellar gameplay (which Emperor had in spades). Rather than a game that does a better job of promoting Dune material, yet is lacking in those areas.

    Indeed Emperor was made with another foreign team's involvement, but who cares. They did a great job with it (except for pathfinding bugs, which were extremely paramount because the pathfinding programmer left the team before the work was done), that's what counts.
