Skirmish and Multiplayer battles always begin with an American Headquarters already constructed somewhere on the map. Like other factions, the Headquarters is the most important building, as it determines the root of all supply lines and is responsible for construction of the most basic units - and thus the construction of almost anything else the Americans will field during a match. This is the principle structure that initiates the construction of the rest of the American force.
Like all other factions in the game, the Americans begin their operations by constructing a Headquarters.
