Deployed from the Mobile Command Center included in their starting forces, the Command Center is a building which occupies a 3x3 footprint and supports two Medium sockets, three Internal sockets, twelve inventory slots and an integrated Robot Factory. It is the seed from which the player grows their base, being one of the first buildings to support the Assembler and Uplink components.
The fixed Robot Factory component allows the Command Center to produce Runners, inexpensive bots to serve your starting logistics needs. The building's size and inventory also allow it to continue serving as a logistics and production hub throughout the game; adding an internal Portable Transporter component allows the Command Center to serve buildings in the surrounding 16 cells.
It is possible and even viable to skip deploying the Command Center, instead using the Mobile Command Center as a substitute.
