Khashar Plateau is the eleventh mission in the Deserts of Kharak campaign. Defend the Khashar Plateau so that Coalition and Siidim landers can land and re-supply the expedition.

Overview[]

The Coalition fleet has secured the Khashar Plateau. Defend the plateau against multiple waves of Gaalsien forces while you split off units to hunt down Gaalsien anti-air squads and await the arrival of the Sakala and your landers. The Coalition expedition is running critically low on supplies and needs those landers to make it to the plateau safely.

Objectives[]

  • Defend the Khashar Plateau
  • Repair the Salvaged Heavy Turrets
  • Secure the Khashar Plateau with Turrets and Mines
  • Destroy Gaalsien Anti-Air Squads

Strategy[]

A fairly straightforward mission, you simply have to endure all of the attacks. Don't worry about emptying the area in the previous mission, multiple new rather large resource pockets appear on the plateau so get your Salvagers working on them. All the wrecks and some of the previous resource fields will be renewed. As indicated by your tactical officer at the beginning of the mission there are several chokepoints up to the plateau that are easier to defend. If you also deploy Sensors around the edges of the plateau your Artillery Cruisers will be able to cover a very massive amount of the approaches. Your main force of heavy hitters could cover the two southwestern entrances from between the two of them, and a combination of Artillery Cruisers and turrets could cover the others.

Also periodically check the Sensors Manager for enemy contact pings that don't move, and use Baserunners to send probes at them. Some of them are Production Cruisers that you'll want to Airstrike or Cruise Missile off of the map to ease up the numbers of enemies coming at you.

Once the final Anti AIr squad is deployed this is the last thing you need to defeat in order to win the mission, and one good Cruise Missile should take care of that so make sure you've harvested all the resources you want to before doing this.
