Dune in 10-20 minutes. No, really

Well, here's an interesting take on the classic Dune boardgame: free, quick, and miniaturized. It's called Dune Express, and it's beginning to gain some traction on certain popular boardgaming sites.

I've yet to read through everything yet, although I hope to this weekend. But I'm definitely intrigued by what I've glanced at so far (although I'll be using one of the colored maps that can be found here).

Dune in 10 to 20 minutes? And without paying $125 for a nice copy on eBay? Is it possible?

(Shout-out to Massive-Melon Zeke for the heads-up)

Update: I've checked it out, and I'm intrigued. No way I'm placing tiny little stickers on dice (a series of colored dice would work just fine), but that's my only complaint.

There's already some "advanced" rules available, too, which add a bit of faction-specific flavor. All in all, an interesting twist on Dune.

I don't think Dune is suited to an "express" game. Interesting idea though, and might not be a bad game in itself, but as a Dune game it sounds disappointing. I think I'll stick to Cosmic Coasters for this sort of quick token movement combat game.
