Complete walkthrough for StarCraft II Part 15, 'Belly of the Beast'. Learn how to sabotage Zerg defenses, destroy coolant towers, and defeat the Zerg Leviathan.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start by building a second automated refinery, tech labs on your Barracks, Factory, and Starport, and queue up Banshees. Build 2 SCVs for building and repairs.
  2. 2
    Send your Battlecruiser southwest to clear the exposed Zerg hive and destroy the first coolant reactor. Build a bunker to the west at the pass.
  3. 3
    After the first reactor explodes, send a Viking mercenary squad to clean up resources. Set up a Psi-Disruptor and 2 Missile Turrets near the northern bunker.
  4. 4
    For the northwest base, take your Banshees and Battlecruiser west to destroy a small hive, then continue to the main hive guarding the coolant reactor. Build an Armory to upgrade air units.
  5. 5
    Call in a Banshee mercenary squad and queue more. Call in Jackson's Revenge. Use your air fleet to methodically destroy the western colony, focusing on vents releasing Mutalisks. Destroy the coolant reactor and retreat.
  6. 6
    After the second reactor explodes, a Zerg Leviathan will appear. Use 8-10 Vikings and a few Battlecruisers to defeat it, but be prepared for losses due to its freezing attack. Return to base for repairs.
  7. 7
    Reinforce your air fleet and build ground troops: dozens of Marauders and 4-5 Medics. Send this combined force south of your base to clear a mini-hive, then move to the center of the map to clear another mini-hive. Send your Marauders and Medics to this second cleared mini-hive.
  8. 8
    Send your Marauders, Goliaths, and Medics into the southeastern base. Destroy the coolant tower and retreat.
  9. 9
    Send all troops to the entrance of the southwestern base, reinforce them, and advance to destroy the final coolant tower.
Tips
  • Focus on building and upgrading your air fleet, especially Banshees and Battlecruisers, as they are crucial for clearing bases and dealing with the Leviathan.
  • Use Viking mercenaries to clean up resources after destroying reactors.
  • When fighting the Zerg Leviathan, be aware of its freeze attack, which significantly weakens your ships. Reinforce and repair frequently.
  • For ground assaults, Marauders and Medics are effective, especially when supported by air units.
  • Use bunkers and turrets for base defense, particularly at key passes.
