![]() Higher terrain and some special abilities will block the sight of units to their target preventing them from firing, particularly for Railguns Line of Sight is important for all units they must see the target to accurately shoot at it.Terrain also plays a key part of combat in Deserts of Kharak in three ways: A Support Unit raw cap instead of unit type counts, a very mobile main command ship, unit Veteran experience levels and subsystem energy-shunting like what the Beast Mothership had in Multiplayer matches are just a few examples of this. In a very interesting twist, perhaps due to the base code of Homeworld: Cataclysm being lost and therefore there being little chance of it being remastered and re-released unlike the other two original Homeworlds, quite a number of gameplay aspects unique to Cataclysm have been incorporated into Deserts of Kharak. The game will feature online multiplayer with ranked play. Instead it is set on the desert planet of Kharak, featuring ground units such as the 'Baserunner', land carrier, land cruisers, and fighter aircraft. Unlike the previous games, Deserts of Kharak is not set in space. Therefore, they will do anything to stop the Coalition of the Northern Kiithid's expedition to find the primary anomaly. However the Kiith Gaalsien, who occupy the Great Banded Desert, believe that it is against the first commandment of their God, Sajuuk, to enter into space. The new story features Rachel S'jet leading an expedition with the land carrier Kapisi into the Great Banded Desert to find the Jaraci object or the Khar-Toba. The game is set around 1110 KDS, around the time of the discovery of the Khar-Toba. It charts the progress of a military expedition led by Rachel S'jet (presumed to be an ancestor of Karan S'jet), sent into the southern deserts of Kharak after an orbital satellite discovers an anomaly. The new game developed by Blackbird Interactive and published by Focus Home Interactive will be revealed at PAX East 2020 and released later this year.Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak is set on Kharak 100 years before the events of Homeworld.
