The resulting Lasegun/Sheild explosion kills all troopers (including 4 coexisting BG troopers), all leaders, and causes both players to discard all cards used in the battle.  No one is paid for the leaders bodies.

Collection Round
:
The Tleilaxu harvest 6 at Rock Outcroppings and 1 at Red Chasm.
The Tleilaxu/Atreides collect 2 in fees from Carthag and Arrakeen.
The BGs and Harks each collect 1 in fees from Gara Kulon and Tuek's.
The BGs and Raad collect 2 in Choam Charity.
The Raad issues a Taxation decree(-2 in decree points).  Each player pays %18 percent tax rounded up.  Next game we'll try to change the way taxes work a bit, as its plain to see, a flat tax doesn't work, the people at the lower end of the scale end up paying much more than those at the top of the scale.  Only the amount of tax, and not the total spice held by each player will be revealed to the Raad.

<NOTE: BECAUSE OF GM MISTAKE, THE HARKONENN'S INFO WAS RELEASED TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC...AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION AND HANDS WAVING, THE GM DECIDED TO LET HIM PICK NEW LEADERS FROM EVERYONE'S "UN-CHOOSEN" LEADERS, AND HIS OWN.  HE ALSO GOT TO THROW BACK 1-2 OF HIS CARDS, AND REPLACE THEM WITH CARD(S) OF HIS CHOICE FROM THE DISCARD PILE (except the Lasegun, or Karama)...He was also given 1-8 spice rolled randomly.
