Here is the rules of these new tupe of multiplayer for Dune2k. 

1. In the searching of the crates:
You start whith your MCV and no other units. 
To Survive you have to seek the crates. You can sell your MCV and
use 3 more faster but sqishable infantry to search the crates or 
seek for them by slow but heavy armored MCV. The best to play 
these map whith 4-8 players. 

2. Total Skirmish
You start whith MCV and some qualty of other units 1-10 whith tech 
level 1-10.Now your goal is to search the crates to get advantage 
on the enemy, make him ambushes and traps. The best to play these 
map whith 3-8 players. 

When you play Sand survivor, your mission is to survive: 
no bulding, no spice mining, no rush tactic (you and your enemy 
forses are equal) Just your survivor tactic. In Sand Survivor 
march more action than Dune 2k originaly have. I play such 
thing even in old good C&C. I called it search the crates. 
And now using all abilites of latest version of Shai-Hulud map
editor I was able to do these thing. You ask me why simple not
to by CD of the C&C Sole Survivor? Because it is not dune2k of caurse.
And also in Sand Survivor the combat will be wery fast 15-30 min 
and filled whith the action. Here is another good thing the westwood 
on line rules tell: If you just play 25 Dune2k games on the westwood 
you can win a Prize! So if you tired of standart dune2k multiplayer 
and want some hot action Sand Survivor is for you!
 
To install these new map you will need map activator or latest 
Shai-huluid. Using Med2k map activator call a map: Sand Survivor 2-8
