This is the most important building in your base.  Upgrading your Central Computer allows for expansion and upgrading of most other buildings.  It is also a requirement for many Immortal Missions that this building be at a certain level or above.

At every upgrade the image of the Central Computer changes, with the previous level's building becoming part of the larger building at the new level.  Certain buildings are only available after a certain Central Computer level has been built.  The Central Computer level also limits the level and number of most buildings.

Apart from the large amount of Water, Iron and time required to upgrade this building, there is usually a requirement for a certain number of Water and Iron Storage Buildings at a specific level.

Critically, a higher level Central Computer allows more space for Robots to be built and deployed for defense and during combat.
