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.
