I’m certain if you put images of Warcraft and images of Warhammer side-by-side in a courtroom, especially in the 1990s , a jury of people would say that’s IP infringement.
Then you downgraded to "it's a clone":

But your video clearly supports the argument they were intending on cloning the Warhammer IP just like they were cloning Dune II's gameplay.

(Your own video calls it a dune II clone mind you, Im not making that up.)
Now you've come down to "it's the spiritual father" (in the same way that the first game of any genre is the spirtual father of every other game in that genre):

Of course yes, Dune 2 is the father of every RTS.

And it rightly deserves that credit.

Why are you shitting on Dune 2’s legacy?
Want to move those goalposts any further?
