Good point.
Which raises the question:
Couldnt the licensors just allow the one single game to be licensed? (in this case, avalon hill's dune whose mechanics were licensed, but not the theme due to obstinance of the herbert estate noted above.)
Dune at that point was a known quantity, even after Herberts son went mucking about, treating the IP like Lucas did for hisnstar wars prequels. Its not like there was anything in the ancillary books that made the theme of the novel dune irrelevant.
