Protoss Mission 5: The Battle of Braxis
Location Braxis Space Platform
Special Units
  • Artanis (enhanced Scout)
New Units None
New Enemy Units Terran Valkyrie (UED)
Special Structures 5 UED Power Generators
Objectives
  1. Destroy all Power Generators to pierce the UED blockade.
  2. Artanis must survive.
The Protoss meet Admiral Alexei Stukov from the United Earth Directorate. He informs them that the Protoss are violating Terran space as well as disrupting the UED's attempt to control the Terran Dominion by destroying them. It's time for the Protoss to destroy the Power Generators in order to manipulate the UED blockade.

You start with a small force of 3 Scouts, 2 Shuttles, 4 Zealots, 2 Dragoons, Artanis and 3 Observers. You are at Level 2 with all your upgrades. Note that you are limited to what you are given in this mission, but you get reinforcements as you destroy each Power Generator. Your first target is obvious; the one closest to you on the map. Use your observers strategically throughout this mission; take out any Missile Turrets you have to, and rely on your ground force. As soon as you destroy a Power Generator, all Missile Turrets in the area will no longer attack you, but rather serve as your additional detectors.

Destroying the first Power Generator will give you 3 Shuttles, 2 Dragoons, 4 Zealots and 4 Dark Templar.

Destroying a second Power Generator will give you 2 Shuttles, 2 Dragoons, and 4 Dark Templar.

Destroying a third Power Generator will give you 2 Observers, 2 Reavers, 3 Shuttles, 4 High Templar, 2 Dragoons.

Destroying a fourth Power Generator will give you an enormous force of 1 Arbiter, 4 Corsairs, 6 Scouts, 8 Zealots, 2 Shuttles.
