Classification and Role
The Commander, although unique, is classified as a K-Bot (Kinetic Bio-organic technology), meaning it is a walking unit. Of all units, the commander resembles a human most closely. In single player campaign missions the Commander is classified as a hero unit, meaning its survival is a mission objective. If in any mission the Commander is lost, the mission is failed.
The role of the Commander is varied, although it is usually used to begin large scale invasions, as it has the ability to construct an entire army relatively fast.
