[edit] StarCraft II Unit

The Command Center in StarCraft II can be upgraded to either a Planetary Fortress, which gives it a strong attack against ground forces and extra defence, or an Orbital Command, allowing it to survey unexplored regions.

[edit] Abilities

• Liftoff
• Load SCV

[edit] StarCraft I Unit

The Command Center is the primary structure in a Terran base. It produces SCVs that are required to mine minerals and gas, and construct other buildings that will help defend the area.

Like other Terran buildings, the Command Center can liftoff to avoid or escape battle, or to re-locate when a mineral patch has been exhausted.
