Command Stations are the nerve center of every star system. There can only be one Command Station in a star system and it is the only structure that can provide Supply.
When a Command Station gets destroyed, any Colony Ships, Mobile Builders, and Energy Collectors present in the system are destroyed as well.
All Human command stations double the speed of allied ships in their system.
There are actually several types of Command Stations as follows:

	Orbital Command Station - Home Planet is the Command Station that is present in every human home system at game start. If this structure is destroyed, the humans have lost and it is game over. (There is a caveat on how losing works in Multiplayer.) Increases AI Progress by 30 when destroyed or scrapped. Produces 300 Metal, 300 Crystal & 30,000 Energy
	Economic Command Station is one of the Command Stations that can be built in conquered star systems. The Economic Command Station maximizes resource production at the expense of everything else. Mark I: Produces 32 Metal & Crystal, 2,000 Energy. Mark II: 80 Metal & Crystal, 4,000 Energy. Mark III: 160 Metal & Crystal, 6,000 Energy No special abilities.
	Logistical Command Station is one of the Command Stations that can be built in conquered star systems. The Logistical Command Station is designed to move your ships around faster. Mark I: Produces 24 Metal & Crystal. Mark II: 48 Metal & Crystal. Mark III: 96 Metal & Crystal. All Marks: Triples (rather then doubling) the speed of friendly units and reveals the wormhole for incoming AI attack waves the same as an Advanced Warp Sensor. Mark I: Increase allies speed by 40 and decrease enemies speed by 19%. Mark II: Increase allies speed by 60 and decrease enemies speed by 38%. Mark III: Increase allies speed by 80 and decrease enemies speed by 50% and prevents enemy units from teleporting in system. Note that the flat numerical speed boost to allies is not displayed in-game anywhere and it takes effect before the +%200 speed boost all logistics stations have.
	Military Command Station is one of the Command Stations that can be built in conquered star systems. The Military Command Station is designed for front line systems where combat is expected. Mark I: Produces 24 Metal & Crystal. Mark II: 48 Metal & Crystal. Mark III: 96 Metal & Crystal. All Marks: High health and armor and fires translocation shots to split the enemy up. Emits tachyon beams and boosts allied attack power. These abilities get more powerful as the Mark level increases.
	Warp Jammer Command Station is one of the Command Stations that can be built in conquered star systems. The Warp Jammer Command Station is specialty station that tricks the AI into think that the system is still under its control. Consumes 40 Metal & Crystal. Prevents the AI from initiating Attack Waves against this planet, including normal Waves, Counterattack Post waves and so on. Also prevents the adjacent planets from going on alert from the loss of the AI command station. Adjacent planets can still go alert from other factors, such as a large enough human military presence.
	AI Orbital Command Station is the AI's central command post in a star system. Destroying this structure is necessary before you can build your own Command Station in the system. When a AI Orbital Command Station is destroyed, any Wormhole Guard Post or Warp Gate left in the system are destroyed as well. Increases AI Progress by 15 when destroyed or scrapped.
	AI Orbital Command Station - Home Planet is the AI's central command post our galaxy. There are two of these Command Stations in the galaxy, one for each AI. These two Command Stations must be destroyed to chase the AI out of our galaxy and win the game. All Core Guard Posts in the system must be destroyed before the AI Orbital Command Station - Home Planet can be attacked. Increases AI Progress by 100 when destroyed.
	The Modular Fortress Command Station is exclusively used by the Fortress King AI. Have fun. :)
