Planetary fortress

The planetary fortress is an upgrade to the terran command center.

Overview
After the Brood War, the increasing use of command centers in combat zones led to the development of standard schematics for upgrading them to a dedicated military role. One such variant is the planetary fortress, featuring increased armor and heavy defensive armament.

It was designed by Ares, a weapon designing company.

Game Unit
The planetary fortress is armed with an ibiks laser that deals splash damage. It does not damage friendly units.

Once upgraded the planetary fortress may no longer lift off, be converted into an orbital command, or be downgraded to a command center. It cannot be salvaged.

The planetary fortress continues to produce SCVs normally.
