A building is a specialised unit that is usually large and
stationary, although in the implementation of traditional RTS games,
buildings and units are treated as quite separate concepts. In many
games, the destruction of all your buildings is sufficient for your defeat.
The functions of buildings usually include the production of new
units or the enabling of certain unit abilities. However, in StarCraft
at least, some buildings can move (e.g. most Terran buildings)
and some mobile units can produce other mobile units (e.g. carriers produce
interceptors, reavers produce scarabs).
