... :: ... :: Command Duties :: Structures: Command Console
Summary: all equipment, resources, and most marine activities, depend upon structures, selected and placed by the commander. Placed structures must be built by marines.
To get an overall picture, see the tech tree.
Command Console Function: allows one marine to connect to the command network and take the role of commander. Frontiersmen insertion points are usually as far away as possible from possible hive locations. A command console (often just called the "CC") is brought on board and rapidly deployed, flushing the network with military-grade nanos, and placing it completely under the commander's control. New command consoles may be built by the commander (though only one may be used at a time). This is the most vital structure to defend. A team without a commander has very poor survival odds. New Equipment: all equipment requires a functional command console. New Structures: all structures require a functional command console. Range: infantry portals must be placed within range of a command console.
