In ''Halo Wars'', the base turret is the main defensive building, serving as the human equivalent of the {{Pattern|Kewu Umppi'pa'|citadel turret}}. Base turrets become available for construction at the UNSC firebase's turret sockets after purchasing the ''Station'' upgrade. The campaign levels ''[[Cleansing]]'' and ''[[Repairs]]'', both of which take place on the hull of the UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'', feature a number of individual turrets sockets (15 and 11, respectively) on the hull to repel enemies. On the Skirmish map ''[[Beasley's Plateau]]'', both UNSC and Covenant players have access to four individual turret sockets, each defending two building sites. On Skirmish, each [[rebel base]] features two to four base turrets, but they are considerably weaker than their UNSC counterparts. | |||
For the specialised upgrades, the player may only use one upgrade at a time. Extra weapons do not affect the machine guns' operation. For example, a turret armed with an anti-air upgrade will still fire at infantry and vehicles. As well as weapon upgrades, base turrets can be further upgraded to medium turrets, and then large turrets at the [[UNSC Field Armory]]. The upgrade to a medium turret adds a third of the armor and another M202 XP machine gun. The upgrade to a large turret adds an additional 50% armor and two more machine guns.{{Ref/Book|Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide|Page=32}} | |||

On some maps with neutral turret building sites such as [[Beasley's Plateau]], the Covenant are able to build Base turrets as the sites do not support the construction of {{Pattern|Kewu Umppi'pa'|citadel turret}}s. In this case, the Covenant-constructed turret will have Covenant highlights such as purple. | |||
