Firebase
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
A firebase is a UNSC base facility. In Halo Wars, it includes a Command Center and three building sites, but has no Turret foundations. It can be upgraded to a Station and, later, a Fortress. Firebases also have self-destruct sequences and lock sequences, the latter of which can be used to deliberately trap one's own newly-trained forces inside the compound.
Many players use firebases when laying siege to enemy bases, by constructing Barracks, Vehicle Depots and Air Pads, and other similar structures, allowing for the rapid deployment of forces to the front lines. Firebases' self-destruct sequences are commonly used by players to prevent enemies from earning points for the base's destruction, and to allow other allies to replace the base and damage any nearby enemy units. It cost 500 resources and only Forge and Anders can build these. Make sure the area is clear because it can be shot down as it is dropped from orbit.
