Coupled with high cost, long build time, pitiful damage output, and using more minerals than gas (the player will likely float gas so missile attack ravens are better), battlecruisers are not very effective in this mission. In fact, battlecruiser range is so short that void rays present a real threat to them.
This strategy should never require battlecruiser jumps nor Gorgons as the defensive positions are so strong with properly positioned tanks and turrets that they will never break. This strategy uses primarily tanks, SCVs, and turrets to hold each lane, using Nova to respond to special attacks and a squad of special ordnance ravens as backup if nukes fail. One may also opt to use a siege tank, turret, and raven strategy on brutal, described later on in this section. Marines also serve as a good mineral dump, as they can attack the air units of the later waves. These can use their tactical jump ability to teleport to areas where defenses are weak. Once that is up and running, begin pumping out more liberators, siege tanks, and battlecruisers, especially if they are given the special ordinance upgrade. As such, the early game should be focused on establishing a firm economy, and taking the two expansions near the main base. The first waves are fairly weak, and can be handled by the Dominion and Defender of Man defenses as well as Nova and the siege tanks and liberators the player starts with. The bonus objective of the level involves keeping a building near the frontlines alive, essentially requiring that the front-center lane of defenses not be overrun.
While initially they will only come through three lanes, four more will open up as the level progresses, two on each side. This mission is a defensive mission, where the Tal'darim will attack down set lanes. Nova and her crew then boarded the Griffin and began to hunt her down. However, the Dominion defenses held, and the Tal'darim invasion force was defeated.ĭuring the chaos of the battle, General Davis was able to escape aboard the Medusa. At several points in the battle, First Ascendant Ji'nara arrived using a Tal'darim mothership, attempting to break the line of the Dominion. Soon the Dominion Fleet arrived, and Gorgon-class battlecruisers began to reinforce the Dominion position. Reigel noted that if the Defenders of Man line fell, the city's science facility would also fall, and they were on the verge of a breakthrough. Nova reinforced the Dominion and Defender's positions and began to weather the Tal'darim onslaught. Admiral Horner stated that the Dominion Fleet was arriving to reinforce their ranks, but it would take time for them to arrive. The lower ranked Defenders of Man forces also came to the aid of the Dominion, stating they were unaware of the agenda of Davis. Nova's forces began to mount a defense against the Death Fleet, with the aid of forces under Admiral Matt Horner. Highlord Alarak and Agent Nova Terra ( src)
