8.6 Are there any role-playing games (RPGs) about Dune?

A Dune GURPS (Generic Universal Role Playing System) campaign has been
produced and put on-line at:

A French fanzine called TMT has made a Dune-based RPG to be found at:

A Dune (and particularly "God Emperor of Dune_) fan has set up some
rules for an RPG called "The Fish Speaker":

The company that produced the Dune CCG, Last Unicorn Games, also made a
Dune RPG: "Dune: Chronicles of the Imperium." This game was released in
a limited edition at GenCon 2000. However, Last Unicorn Games were
bought by Wizards of the Coast, and the game was finally cancelled. The
core rulebook was to be followed by a narrator's guide, sourcebooks and
scripted games. Sadly, these will now never be. The GenCon edition is
sometimes for sale on auction sites, but expect to pay a hefty price as
it is very much a collectors item.
