UNSC Barracks

Body

"The Barracks trains the bulk of the UNSC infantry units. Infantry technology upgrades can also be found here."

— In-game description

The UNSC Barracks is a military building produced off of a Firebase in the game Halo Wars. It is the building where you recruit and station infantry. This is a common structure used in many other strategy games. Here you can recruit the Spartans from Spartan Group Omega, regular marines and flamethrower marines. It also serves as a place to acquire the medic and rocket launcher upgrades for your infantry. It costs 150 resource points and requires 0 energy units.

According to halowars.com;

This is no UNSC academy. The Barracks is a rustic shack compared to the comforts of a real training center, but then again a Marine in the field isn’t generally thinking about creature comforts. They make you soft. The Barracks simply houses the raw recruits and equipment needed to field squads of UNSC Marines. A quick briefing, visit to the armory, and you’ve got boots on the ground.

The Covenant equivalent is the Hall.
