Arrakis is a desert planet, mostly notable as the
source of the spice melange. Otherwise Arrakis is an
unremarkable world, except for its hostility towards
human life. Visitors are warned that it is imperative
they follow the advice of their guides as several
considerations are essential on Arrakis that are barely
even concerns on other worlds.
WATER
There is no precipitation on Arrakis and much of the
local water is actually imported. Visitors should keep
in mind that water is precious here and wasting it can
cause insult to the local community. If you find yourself
without water, please inform your travel guide and they
can do their best to source additional rations. There
will be a surƒcharge for this service. Even in climate-
controlled buildings visitors should keep hydrated as
much as possible and remain mindful of their water
supply.
THE DESERT
The deserts of Arrakis are a marvel and a beautiful sight under
the right conditions. However, they are also exceptionally
dangerous and fatal accidents are highly likely should a visitor
not follow basic guidelines.
TRANSPORT
In the cities, several forms of ground transport are available
in both Arrakeen and Carthag. However, visitors must not
enter the desert using ground transport. Even the smallest
vibration on the sand will draw a sandworm with inevitably
fatal consequences.
THE SANDWORMS
Trips to see the sandworms of Arrakis are very popular
and visitors are advised to book in advance and
through a registered tour operator. Such trips should
only be undertaken by ornithopter. While a sight of
a worm on a desert tour is rare, you have the best
chance to see one with a guide. On no account should
you attempt to look for a worm unaccompanied as
they are dangerous even to ornithopters and you can
interrupt spice harvesting operations.

Compiled by Kobus Zaan, Mentat to House Harkonnen
Under the last CHOAM audit, House Harkonnen spice profits stood at 864 million solaris
in three hundred and thirty standard days. Harkonnen’s profit margin was 12%; the current
value of melange on the Imperial market is 600,000 solaris per unit. House Harkonnen pro-
duced 12,000 units of melange worth 7.2 billion solaris.
CHOAM are seeking a 2% increase in spice production over the next standard fiscal year, or
12,240 units.
Following the surrender of the Imperial fief on Arrakis by House Harkonnen, the disposition
of equipment is as follows:
@ Scout Ornithopters: 6,000 (3,428 operational)
@ Spice Harvester Factories: 800 (465 operational)
@ Carryalls: 820 (496 operational)
The above evidence suggests the House Harkonnen anticipated losing its fief and maximized
profit over maintenance. Repair time and costs severely affect production and profitability.
The tenets of the Harkonnen Withdrawal Agreement state that all sand workers and spice
hunters are free of any contractual obligations and are entitled to seek work off-world. Ashem
Perro, Judge of the Change in planetary fief, has defended this right. Intelligence reports
suggest some 65% of workers have exercised the privilege, leaving House Nagara critically
short-handed. The situation is exacerbated by increased smuggling, guerrilla attacks by the
native population of desert-dwelling Fremen, and the predations of sandworms, some of
which are so massive that they can swallow a spice harvester whole.
