Just like usually, start the mission by allotting drones to mineral fields, building of the vespan extractor, and manning it with miners. The enemy will send against you a gorgon cruiser at the beginning of the mission. Don't panic though and keep on improving your base. The most important unit for you in this mission will be your swarm queens, so you should start producing them as early into the mission s possible. Apart from that, you should also mutate your evolution chamber and improve your units. Only after gorgon cruiser approaches the base, can you start working on your new biomass tumor, and activate banshee's nest [1].

Your first target is a small Dominium manufacturing base, located to the south of you. There are barracks and a factory there, whose destruction will allow you to proceed to the east. If you are going to unlock all of the achievements, you can collect zerg biomatter [A] on your way, and destroy orbital command center [B].

Another Terran base is located to the north of your starting point. In the meantime, you can make use of the new tumors and bring biomass to nest [2] and [3], but do not activate them yet. You can do it at the last moment, which will buy you more time to perform the secondary objectives. Before you launch an attack on the north-western Dominium position, you should make sure to have at least 6-7 swarm queens at your disposal, plus a small group of zerglings. Now, with the help of Kerrigan's powers, you can start damaging bunkers and destroying siege tanks, and order the remaining zergs finish off the survivors. Destroying the orbital command [B] should be no challenge at all.

Continue to expand the biomass now. As the tumor can produce only one offspring, you need to use the queens' help to create a few additional cells. You should also produce more troops - to complete the mission successfully, you are going to need at least, 15 big worms. Once you take over points [4] and [5], you can harvest the nearby zerg biomatter [A].

It's almost the end of the mission. Go south towards the centre of the map - you need to watch out for gorgon cruisers flying overhead! It is enough to just avoid the crosshair underneath the cruiser to make it. Bring biomass to the nest [6] and slowly to nest [7], without activating them yet.

You are up for the most difficult battle in the entire mission - you need to attack terran main base. It is inside the base that the orbital command centers is located. With 15 swarm queens at your disposal, and using Kerrigan's kinetic blast, you should experience no difficulties in destroying the fortifications, as well as your main target [B]. Now you only need to collect the third zerg biomatter [A] and activate the last remaining banshee nest [7].
