Victory Achievements

Easy Win

  • Win in easy difficulty or more

Desert Fighter

  • Win in medium difficulty or more

Strategist

  • Win in hard difficulty or more

Master of Arrakis

  • Win in insane difficulty

You can set AI difficulty in Preferences after selecting a fraction.

As you can see from the description, winning on higher difficulty levels unlocks achievements with previous difficulties. Thus, to get all the achievements at once, it is enough to win on the insane difficulty. However, I recommend getting to grips with the basic mechanics of the game on easy and normal difficulties before playing on insane.

Hegemon

  • Win an Hegemony victory

Winning by way of the Hegemony victory condition is likely the way many matches will end. Hegemony is essentially a rating of your overall control on Arrakis. Hegemony is accrued through many different actions, and accruing 30,000 points will make you the victor.

The main ways of gaining Hegemony include:

  • Annexing and taking over villages.
  • Getting Charters passed in your favor.
  • Using espionage operations.
  • Paying the Spice Tax.
  • A bunch of smaller actions can contribute to your Hegemony as well.

Each Crafts Workshop you build at a village provides 2 Hegemony per day, and once you reach 10,000 Hegemony, you can construct the Administrative Hall at your capital to get a 10% bonus to your earnings. Basically, you’ll want to expand and control as much of Arrakis as possible in order to win through this method.

Governor

  • Win with the Dune Governorship charter

Governship victory condition, tied to the Landsraad and Charters. On top of the basic Charters, there are five special Charters at the top of the Landsraad. The one you want is the “Dune Governorship Charter.” Certain conditions must be unlocked in order for the Charter to go up for a vote.

For Dune Governorship to go up for a vote, a certain number of regions must be held by one faction. On top of that, a certain number of Sietches must be allied with any of the four factions. Once those conditions are met, the Charter will go up for vote, but a faction also needs to meet the requirements in order to vote for it.

You must be allied with multiple Sietches and have high Landsraad standing in order to put your votes forward. Once done, you actually need to win the vote, which isn’t guaranteed.

However, winning through Governorship is most easily done with House Atreides since the faction gets huge bonuses for Landsraad standing and diplomacy.

Assassin

  • Win by assassinating your last opponent

The first option for achieving a Domination victory is by way of espionage, in which case you’ll need to assign Agents to each of the espionage areas. To pull off an association attempt, you must be Level 2 in each of the general espionage areas, as well as Level 2 in the specific faction you want to assassinate. Keep in mind, however, that assassination attempts can fail and your agents can be captured.

You’ll win if you manage to infiltrate and assassinate all three faction leaders. Use asssasin to kill your last opponent`s leader to unlock this one.

Conqueror

  • Win by destroying the base of your last opponent

You can also achieve Domination victory by building up massive armies and destroying each of your opponent’s capitals. However, capitals have massive amounts of health and defense, so you’ll really need a massive army to bring them down. Deal with other fractions somehow and destroy the base of last fraction to unlock this achievement.

Faction Achievements

There are currently only 4 playable factions in the game: House Atreides, House Harkonnen, Smugglers and Fremen. Each of them has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages.
For the victory of each faction, you will unlock one achievement.
