# Guild transport from Arrakis to Homeworlds
|
||
|
||
9 September 2026. Fresh primary-source audit for the next transport integration. This supplements [the transport source update](HOMEWORLD_TRANSPORT_SOURCE_UPDATE.md); it does not resolve the already recorded Junction payment, foreign-garrison departure, or ordinary Karama timing questions.
|
||
|
||
## Separate permission and purchased price — 15 October 2026
|
||
|
||
Native Guild Arrakis-to-world and native own-world returns now have an
|
||
unpaid transport-permission response before the separate rate counter.
|
||
Denial preserves exact sources, funds and legal alternatives; a purchased
|
||
price never restores the denied route. Common world-to-foreign-world
|
||
permission remains independently available. Junction sponsorship keeps its
|
||
immune Homeworld source rather than using native cross/return permission.
|
||
|
||
The supplied authorized Advanced Karama section, PDF physical16, permits
|
||
any player’s Force Shipment at half normal price, paid to bank. Both typed
|
||
quotes, actual controls and minimal budgets now honor that independent
|
||
price and do not stack it with explicit Guild Nexus. Whole donor/own payment
|
||
goes to bank, with no ordinary Guild receipt. Original manual/automatic
|
||
interception and exact typed custody remain. Special-stop returns only an
|
||
unclaimed original purchase cost under the existing provisional policy;
|
||
actual completion consumes its grant and preserves movement. A cost
|
||
[recovered through Semuta](SEMUTA_SOURCE_UPDATE_20260907.md#shipment-price-cost-and-claimed-card-refund--16-october-2026)
|
||
keeps the price effect but cannot also be refunded, even after rediscard.
|
||
|
||
Actual390px original controls gift the auctioned Ecaz card to Moritani,
|
||
ship three from Grumman to Ecaz for two bank spice, preserve Guild6 and
|
||
finish the original turn. A separate original typed return allows native
|
||
permission, then cancels rate: fee3, approved donor1, Guild7→6 after existing
|
||
donor income, Junction15→18 and Tuek5→2. Controlled second-card special-stop
|
||
instead returns the original gifted card without any departure/payment.
|
||
[Current authority and explicit interpretation](GUILD_RATE_KARAMA_RULES.md#permission-purchase-and-allied-marker-composition--15-october-2026).
|
||
The subsequent [immune Junction source choice](JUNCTION_TRANSPORT_RULES.md#purchased-price-and-immune-offer--15-october-2026)
|
||
keeps its original tariff/payees and explicitly acknowledges that a separately
|
||
purchased price ends unused only upon actual delivery, without a card refund.
|
||
|
||
## Native rate cancellation runtime — 15 October 2026
|
||
|
||
Original native Guild world-to-world, Arrakis-to-foreign-world and Junction
|
||
return now pause for their separate prepayment rate response after original
|
||
manual/automatic interception. Both canonical typed quotes and owner controls
|
||
charge full one-per-counter only when the native rate is canceled. Exact
|
||
source pools, approved ally split and original allowance persist; unaffordable
|
||
release preserves a full-price replacement without debt or extra donor funds.
|
||
|
||
Junction-sponsored transport is still an immune Homeworld source, not this
|
||
native faction discount. Actual original half/full offers remain2/3 for three
|
||
counters after native cancellation. Cunning's typed second shipment keeps its
|
||
original history and frame through the same rate stages. Deferred Betrayal
|
||
retains full-price authority until actual settlement, not merely queueing.
|
||
|
||
Actual390px typed return selects Tuek5 source3 and approved donor1:
|
||
Guild pays own2 at full3, receives its existing donor income1, ends7→6
|
||
with Junction15→18 and Tuek5→2; donor wallet stays11 while escrow1→0.
|
||
A poor original world shipment leaves Guild1/Junction15/escrow1 unchanged
|
||
after cancellation, shows disabled full3, then ships two for full2 with the
|
||
same split and ends Guild1/Junction13/foreign2. No overflow/browser errors.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Route and custody contract
|
||
|
||
E3 permits Guild shipment from Arrakis to a Homeworld and classifies it as cross-shipment. Guild can return to its own Junction or invade another native faction's world; an allied destination is forbidden. Guild's ordinary alliance grant does not supply this new route to its ally. Junction's separate high-face permission has its own provenance. [GF9 E3, p.10](https://www.gf9games.com/dune/wp-content/uploads/EcazMoritani-Rulebook-LOWRES.pdf#page=10), [component audit](HOMEWORLD_COMPONENT_AUDIT.md#verified-high-side-effects).
|
||
|
||
The implementable tariff is `ceil(physicalCounters / 2)` for Guild. This composes E3's one-spice-per-force Homeworld tariff with its Guild half-price clause; the paragraph does not give a separate Arrakis-origin worked example. For return to Junction, the base reserve-return price independently produces the same result. Do not use the two-spice non-stronghold territory tariff for a Homeworld. [GF9 E3, p.10](https://www.gf9games.com/dune/wp-content/uploads/EcazMoritani-Rulebook-LOWRES.pdf#page=10), [GF9 base, pp.19,23](https://www.gf9games.com/dunegame/wp-content/uploads/Dune-Rulebook.pdf#page=19).
|
||
|
||
The base Guild alternatives use the faction's single shipment and start in one territory. Its Q&A expressly allows counters distributed among sectors of that territory to ship together. Preserve exact typed source groups; reject combining different territories. The Storm Obstruction rule prevents departure of counters under storm. It supplies no exception for Guild cross-shipping; do not reject an entire partly covered territory when the selected counters are outside storm. [GF9 base, pp.7,19,22](https://www.qugs.org/rules/r283355.pdf#page=7).
|
||
|
||
The Hidden Mobile Stronghold is independently protected from storms. Its interior is the source when shipping out; its pointer locates its ordinary-board entrance. Do not substitute the pointer's storm-covered sector for the protected interior. This follows the printed protection, rather than a dedicated Guild-departure FAQ example. [GF9 E1, p.9](https://www.gf9games.com/dunegame/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/IxianAndTleilaxuRulebook.pdf#page=9).
|
||
|
||
## Distinct card interactions
|
||
|
||
Guild's special Karama names an off-planet shipment of any player. It does not say that the origin must be off Arrakis, or prohibit choosing Guild itself. A physical Arrakis-to-another-world shipment fits the interplanetary predicate used in the preceding audit; this is source composition, not a new explicit FAQ example. Preserve the existing optional owned response when Guild holds the card, including its own shipment. Never use an Arrakis-origin flag as blanket special-interception immunity. [GF9 base, p.14](https://www.gf9games.com/dunegame/wp-content/uploads/Dune-Rulebook.pdf#page=14).
|
||
|
||
Ordinary Karama has separate targets for Guild transport permission, its half-price benefit, and payment income. E1's reference prohibits cross/return transport when the Three Types advantage is canceled; it separately removes the discount. E3's immunity protects Homeworld face effects, including Junction's granted permission, without turning Guild's ordinary transport advantage into a face effect. Keep those sources separate. This audit does not choose a new announcement, repricing, or affordability policy for [the pending timing questions](GUILD_RATE_KARAMA_RULES.md#material-unresolved-timing). [GF9 E1, p.12](https://www.gf9games.com/dunegame/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/IxianAndTleilaxuRulebook.pdf#page=12), [GF9 E3, p.10](https://www.gf9games.com/dune/wp-content/uploads/EcazMoritani-Rulebook-LOWRES.pdf#page=10).
|
||
|
||
## Technology and payment
|
||
|
||
E3's FAQ confirms Heighliner activation for shipment **to** a Homeworld, without restricting the origin or requiring a foreign destination. Preserve E1's exception when Guild is the only qualifying shipper. Thus Guild's own Junction return or invasion alone earns no Heighliner income; a future non-Guild Junction-sponsored shipment to a Homeworld qualifies. Settlement activates the token once for the phase, rather than awarding spice per transported counter. [GF9 E3, p.15](https://www.gf9games.com/dune/wp-content/uploads/EcazMoritani-Rulebook-LOWRES.pdf#page=15), [GF9 E1, p.5](https://www.gf9games.com/dunegame/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/IxianAndTleilaxuRulebook.pdf#page=5).
|
||
|
||
Retain the [contributor-specific payment contract](GUILD_SHIPMENT_PAYMENTS.md#publisher-contract-and-precedence). The shipper's personal fee for this route goes to the bank; any non-Guild ally contribution follows the independently recorded November funding rule. Funds, custody, typed totals, shipment usage, and technology remain unchanged until a valid settlement. No sector, territorial entry effect, or stronghold occupancy cap applies to the Homeworld destination.

Validation: freshly retrieved publisher-indexed E3 pp.10/15 and E1 pp.5/9/12, plus base pp.14/19/22. Direct publisher PDF requests failed; the accessible base mirror contains the publisher-authored 24-page rulebook. Fan compilations and tournament rules were excluded. Local document links reviewed; no runtime, saved game, or automation changed by this audit.
