Homeworld

[Space101]

Homeworld is a real-time strategy computer game released on September 28, 1999, developed by Relic Entertainment and published by Sierra Entertainment. It was the first fully three-dimensional RTS.

Plot

for thousands of years, the Kushan survived on the arid planet Kharak, corralled into the temperate geographical poles by a vast hot desert. Scarcity of arable land and natural resources had colored Kushan history with near constant warfare between the many clans. One day however, everything changed: a satellite detected a huge spaceship under the sands of the Great Desert. It carried advanced spaceflight technologies, including a hyperspace device for faster-than-light space voyage. More importantly, a stone with a galactic map bearing two coordinates was found: One, located at the outer rim of the galaxy, was Kharak. The other, located near the center, bore a name so ancient it was common across all their languages and dialects: Hiigara, "Home".
The discovery united the people of Kharak. They worked for nearly a century on building the Mothership, a vast ship that would bear 600,000 of them to their destination. Technologies that never existed before were developed. Central to the Mothership was Karan S'jet, the scientist who integrated the Mothership's control system into her own nervous system. She became the core of the Mothership and was known as Fleet Command.
The maiden voyage of the Mothership turned into a tragedy: As scheduled, Mothership performed its first hyperspace jump, disappearing from its location near planet Kharak and appearing outside the Kharak solar system where it expected an engineering crew. Instead, it found a hostile alien fleet which had massacred the engineering crew awaiting their arrival. The Kushan managed to defeat the aliens and return to Kharak, only to find it burning in flames. Those left on Kharak were all dead. The chosen 600,000 were all that had survived.
The Kushan began their journey with an act of revenge on the fleet that had destroyed Kharak. Having captured an enemy frigate, they learned that their enemy was Taiidan, a tyrannical intergalactic empire which had ordered their destruction merely because the Kushan's development of a faster-than-light drive was a violation of a treaty signed four thousands years before – a time that predated Kharak's known history.
