Stats

 * where does "stats" come from? Certainly not original Dune, it also contradicts the DE... looks like rpg or videogame stats rather...--Haerangil (talk) 21:20, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

Edited Operation and Technology section to remove text about sensors relying on movement - there is no mention of this in The Dune Encyclopedia, and the only mention in Dune is the following text (on page 68 of my copy):
 * Its compressed suspensor field distorted the vision of its transmitter eye. With nothing but the dim light of the room to reflect his target, the operator would be relying on motion - anything that moved.

This text shows that the operator was relying on movement because the room was dimly lit, not because the sensors were not very good. --avantman42 21:02, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Arafel from God Emperor - might want to include a section that mentions how the original Arafel envisioned by Leto II was supposed to be caused by the Ixian invention of a new kind of hunter seeker that would rove around breaking down any and all organic matter. This is referenced in the testing of Siona and later several other times by describing humans trapped in caves with no escape. Interesting mostly because it is (obviously) one of Frank Herbert's original concepts, and also because it is essentially never mentioned in this form again.
 * Good idea. Please go on :) MoffRebusMy Talk 12:08, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
