Note your large starting supply of minerals. In addition, you have so much minerals in your large starting area that you could build enough Zerglings to fill the 200 supply limit five times over. The limiting factor is gas; you only get one geyser, and that won't even be close to enough. Therefore, your focus at this stage of the scenario is to secure more gas locations while building up your defenses and climbing the tech tree.

Scout out the general surroundings of your base with Overlords while gathering the resources next to the Hatchery. You'll find a sizable mineral field to the left and another one to the right; also, there are stray minerals near the cliff to the right side, but you can't mine those until the Protoss defenses on the cliff are taken out. As the minerals start coming in, build two more Hatcheries, each near the two mineral fields. Not only will this help you gain resources much faster, it will also come in handy for the mass-production you'll be doing later.

Stage your units near your sixth Hatchery and begin the assault. As mentioned earlier, you won't encounter much resistance in the jungle; you only start coming up against patrolling Dragoons at about the midpoint of the map, and a bit further up from there you'll finally find a sizable base. As always, use Guardians for most of the dirty work, with your melee units (Zerglings and Ultralisks) helping take down buildings and everyone else providing support.
