Use the starting resources to build a large fleet of Probes; don't stop at 1.5 Probes per mineral patch, keep making more. This is because you will be expanding shortly, and you want to be able to just transfer all your excess Probes there instead of having to wait for the new Nexus to make them. Also, build a second Gateway and pump Zealots and Dragoons from both. Build a Robotics Facility plus both supporting buildings as well. The Templar tech tree (Templar Archives, then upgrades) is not strictly necessary in this mission, but it never hurts to have Psionic Storm and Archons so try to build them later when you have the extra resources. Finally, as you're doing all this place a few more Pylons along the ridge that your base is on and build Photon Cannons galore. They'll save you a lot of trouble later.
