Our representation of Halo's iconic space combat in the Homeworld 2 engine, which puts the player in command of some of the most powerful weapons fielded by the UNSC and Covenant and to provide a balanced and competitive experience.
Since I joined Homefront back in 2010, Homefront has been consecutively in the ModDB Top 100. This is a huge accomplishment for everyone that has been working on the mod and we strive to bring you the best experience we possibly can. For now, he's a taste of what we've been doing behind closed doors.

Gasp! Is that a frigate firing boarding pods?!
The Charon-class Marine Frigate is built specifically with boarding action in mind. While normal deployment demands fill the cargo bay with ground side vehicles and equipment, the Charon-class is filled exclusively with ODSTs and HEV drop pods that 'reload' for deployment.
Only capitals can be captured, and closing in on them is very risky. I'd recommend first disabling the bridge so their weapon systems are inoperable. The frigates aren't armored very well so you'll need to defend them. Capturing an enemy capital ship, however, can boost your fleet numbers above the fleet cap and turn the tide in battle.

so you finally add boarding party to the UNSC, I remember a few years ago I ask if I can capture enemy ship and you said you don't want to add the boarding party because it's not a thing in UNSC. you did a great job, sir! *sharp salute*
inb4 "Why no Pelicans ???!!!!"
V3LO (Star2Scream back then) settled this a long time ago ;) No Pelican in tha mod.
Although he did released a sneak peak of a Pelican if my merory serves me well...
Yes he did. This is a different era for Homefront, however, and a lot of the stuff that was mandated back then is up for change again. If you recall, boarding wasn't supposed to be a feature as well yet here it is.
Indeed ;)
will the covenant be in the new release
Yes
