## Salusa Low and free Sardaukar revival — 27 October 2026
The [GF9 Ecaz and Moritani rulebook, pp. 9–10](https://www.gf9games.com/dune/wp-content/uploads/EcazMoritani-Rulebook-LOWRES.pdf#page=10)
gives Salusa's Low penalty as no free Sardaukar revival and says Karama cannot
affect Homeworld advantages or penalties. The supplied Advanced rulebook,
physical p. 31 / printed p. 29, exempts Emperor special revival from turn limits,
but does not exempt it from this separate Homeworld prohibition. Physical p. 39 /
printed p. 37 makes Ghola's force return free. Applying the Low penalty across
these sources is a source-composition interpretation, not a specific FAQ.
For fresh Advanced Homeworld actions, the shared rule excludes Sardaukar from
free normal revival, Ghola, special Emperor Karama and Tleilaxu Ambassador
returns while the Low penalty applies. Paid normal Sardaukar revival remains
legal subject to the usual costs, discounts and limits; free ordinary forces and
eligible leaders remain available. An unused ordinary free allowance is retained
after a paid star, so a later eligible ordinary return may consume it. Ambassador
returns use the native reserve destinations: normal forces to Kaitain and
Sardaukar to Salusa.
Provisionally, an established Low occupation retains its penalty after native
repopulation until the original qualifying occupation ends. Foreign presence
without a usable original qualification history is guarded rather than assumed
to be occupied or unoccupied. Previously accepted unstamped revival receipts and
special intents retain their original terms; the change does not rewrite saved
counters. Rule behavior, controls and minimal bots are connected in the current
prototype; focused integration verification and wider combinations remain due.
This section supersedes the Low-to-High free Ghola claims in the historical
sections below; it does not certify complete Homeworlds or release readiness.
