After you have defended on your own for a period of time, you will receive transmission from Tassadar from the Gantrithor. He will soon appear on the map south of the first mineral expansion you claimed, along with 27 Scouts and 2 other Carriers. You also get one free Terran Marine who rescues this force. Take advantage of this new force; Scouts are mechanically similar to Wraiths, but stronger and more expensive. Keep in mind that you cannot repair damaged Protoss units with SCVs, but that all Protoss units have shields that regenerate when damaged. The Scouts should be responsible for chasing away enemy air units of all kinds, but keep them away from Scourge; they are very vulnerable to the suicidal powers of this miniscule Zerg unit, like most air units. At this point, you will now have to destroy all Zerg buildings on the map. To do this, you may need more resources. Annihilate the entire blue Zerg island and build your own base over it. You need these resources if you plan on creating backups for your existing force. Prepare several Dropships as you head over to the main Orange Zerg island to the northeast. You will need to strike this with a fairly large force; 12 Scouts, 12 Goliaths and 12 Siege Tanks is the recommended size. Drop them on the southeast corner of the main island (the lower dirt, where you can see some free minerals). Using the Scanner Sweep from a Comsat Station, Hit any buildings and units that you see. Let the Goliaths take on the Zerglings, Mutalisks and the Ultralisks while the Scouts take on the Guardians, Queens and Overlords. The rest can be destroyed by Siege Tanks. "Leapfrog" your way up the base and clean up any buildings in your way (this tactic is described in [[StarCraft/Terran mission 8: The Big Push|Terran mission 8: The Big Push]]). To the south of this island is another island with a Zerg Hatchery. Since this area is undefended, though, take a handful of Scouts and just pound on it over and over. Once all Zerg buildings are destroyed, you win. | After you have defended on your own for a period of time, you will receive transmission from Tassadar from the Gantrithor.
