About this expansion

Dune: Imperium – Ruthless Leadership Promo Card is a 2024 promo card for 1–4 players, associated with a 120-minute game experience. Offered by DireWolf to pre-order customers of Dune: Imperium – Bloodlines, it adds a focused card effect to the main draw deck.

At startup, shuffle Ruthless Leadership into the main draw deck. Its Agent ability rewards a specific presence in the Conflict: if you have one or more Sardaukar Commanders there, you may trash two cards.

The card also provides a valuable Reveal ability. When revealed, it grants one persuasion and one battle point. If you generate 6 or more persuasion, you may add troops to the Conflict, giving the reveal effect an additional condition-based option.

  • Agent ability: With one or more Sardaukar Commanders in the Conflict, trash two cards.
  • Reveal ability: Gain one persuasion and one battle point.
  • Persuasion threshold: If you generate 6 or more persuasion, you may add troops to the Conflict.
  • Setup: Shuffle the card into the main draw deck at startup.

Dune: Imperium – Ruthless Leadership Promo Card centers on the interaction between Sardaukar Commanders, card removal, persuasion, and the Conflict. Its two abilities create distinct opportunities depending on when the card is used: an Agent effect tied to the Conflict and a Reveal effect that combines immediate rewards with a possible troop addition.
