Part 5

Rescue the 10 marauders and send your new command center and SCVs southeast to the minerals.

Keep an eye on the timer and prepare to pull SCVs into the command center and have it liftoff. Your command center is fine flying over lava.

Send all forces, now including marauders, to the far southwest corner to kill the first brutalisk. Pull back to heal if needed.

Option 1: Send forces further east to kill more zerg. Option 2: Hold back and defend while gathering resources revealed by Tosh.

If fighting, send forces to the center of the map, then south up a ramp to clear zerg. Find four more reapers southwest of this zerg base.

Return troops to the center, head east, and go up the first ramp to find 4 more reapers. Head south on this plateau and kill zerg.

Move your command centers to 2 new mineral fields as the first two should be depleted.

Head south where troops are fighting to find another squad of reapers.

Head northeast, killing zerg and structures, to find another reaper squad.

Head north to a low lava zone with ramps to the northwest and northeast. Clear these areas, rescue the reapers, and sit back. Mining should have reached 8000 by now.

Back at the Hyperion, access Tier II Zerg research and choose the Perdition Turret if following suggested options.

Primary Mission Objective: Intercept Dominion Trains (8 total).

Bonus Objectives: Locate Diamondbacks (6 total), Collect Defiler Bone Samples (3 total) for Research Bonus.

Start with a Command Center, Merc Compound, Barracks, Factory with Tech Lab, 3 supply depots, 4 SCVs, and 4 marines. Build 4 more SCVs and have them mine minerals.

Send your marines west to find the first Diamondback. The first three are marked on your (minimap (the small circular map in the bottom-left corner of your screen)) (map).

Build a tech lab onto your barracks.

Head north towards the second Diamondback. Near it, to its right, you will notice a blue glow – this is a sample of Defiler Bone.

Grab the Defiler Bone sample and continue to the second Diamondback. Grab the 2 mineral pads near it.

Go northwest to take out a few dominion troops.

Head northeast to find the first hidden Diamondback.

Send all troops to the third marked Diamondback. The first train should arrive from the far northwest corner and pass your base from the northside.

Wait for the first train in the area you opened up finding the first 4 Diamondbacks. Attacking any portion of the train damages the entire train.

While killing the first train, build marauders and more supply depots. Gather resources it drops and return troops to base.

Send troops out the southwest ramp to discover the middle train track. Follow it east, watching the north side.

Directly south of your refinery and north of the track, find the second Defiler Bones.

Move south from these bones, cross the middle tracks, and look east for a ramp. Up this ramp is the 5th Diamondback.

Grab the 5th Diamondback and head back to destroy the second train. It will have an escort of 6 dominion marines. Take them out first, then gather resources.

Head back to the southwest entrance to your base. Along the train tracks, find another ramp 1-2 seconds south of your southwest ramp. Go up this ramp for the 6th and final Diamondback.

Start training your own Diamondbacks as one train moves very fast later.

After acquiring the last Diamondback, return to base and expect an incoming attack. Repel the dominion forces.

Immediately head south to the southern train tracks. Dead south of your base, where the middle and southern tracks almost meet, is a large loop. Attack the train from this loop, placing troops on the south side of the tracks.

Take out its defenders (6 marines and 2 hellions), then finish the train and gather resources.

Heading slightly southeast, follow the southern train tracks. Watch the west side of the tracks to find the third and final Defiler Bones, directly south of your base if you are having trouble finding it.
