=== Games === The Spacing Guild is a sub-faction in the [[real-time strategy]] video game ''[[Emperor: Battle for Dune]]'' (2001).<ref>{{cite magazine |first=Star |last=Dingo |date=June 21, 2001 |url=http://www.gamepro.com/computer/pc/games/reviews/14850.shtml |title=''Emperor: Battle For Dune'' Review for PC |magazine=[[GamePro]] |publisher=[[International Data Group|IDG Entertainment]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20041205182122/http://www.gamepro.com/computer/pc/games/reviews/14850.shtml |archive-date=December 5, 2004 |url-status=dead |access-date=April 26, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.gamerstemple.com/game-reviews/pc/43/emperor-battle-for-dune-review|title=''Emperor: Battle for Dune'' Review |website=The Gamers' Temple |date=July 19, 2005 |access-date=October 26, 2022}}</ref> It has its own private army with which it can back up its demands. The Guild uses its heighliners to transport troops of the three player Houses ([[House Atreides|Atreides]], [[House Harkonnen|Harkonnen]] and [[House Ordos|Ordos]]) from their homeworlds to Arrakis. The Guild also uses its Navigators to pilot their NIAB ("Navigator in a Boat") Tanks, a hover tank that projects a single electrical bolt, and NIAP ("Navigators in a Plane") Flyers, an aerial version of the NIAB Tank, although without any weapons of its own. The NIAB Tank also has the ability to fold-space for short distances on the battlefield.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.g4li.org/emperor-battle-for-dune/niab-tank.html|title=NIAB Tank - ''Emperor: Battle for Dune''|first=Daniel|last=Schnieders|date=July 28, 2022|website=Games for Learning|access-date=October 21, 2022}}</ref> One mission in the game involves the three House attacking each other on a Guild heighliner.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Kapalka |first=Jason |url=https://www.cgwmuseum.org/galleries/issues/cgw_206.pdf |title=The Emperor Has No Clue (''Emperor: Battle for Dune'' Review) |magazine=[[Computer Gaming World]] |publisher=[[Ziff Davis]] |issue=206 |date=September 2001 |pages=86β87; 109β115 |access-date=April 26, 2022}}</ref> The Guild forces in the game can also deploy a unit called the Maker, an infantry unit somewhat resembling both a Navigator and a small sandworm, armed with an electrical weapon. Later in the game, the Spacing Guild attempts to seize control of the universe by building an "Emperor Worm".
