Engine of Destruction:
Escort Tychus to the Odin, destroy the Dominion Bases, find and Destroy the Loki, find Devourer Tissue Samples, Tychus Must Survive, Odin Must Survive.
Kicking Asgard:
Loki is the local Battlecruiser prototype, with a fast-shooting cannon and lots of HP (1500 HP). He's in the middle-east part of the map and there's no way to lure him to the Odin. In return you have to use anti-air units. The best time to attack would be after the destruction of the fourth base.
You do get Wraiths in this mission, but help yourself with Vikings as well, especially that Cloaking isn't really useful against the Loki. Note that you can also produce Goliaths. Just make sure your squad is large and will shoot the Loki down, before it manages to turn your units to dust. Around 10 units should do the trick, though the more the better.
This achievement doesn't require you to finish the main mission.
Ragnarok & Roll:
Not much different from the basic mission described above. Make sure the Odin gets regular repairs by selecting the SCVs and then clicking on it with the right mouse button. Do the same with each newly made soldier or vehicle. You can even set the building's flag on Tychus.
The army which will be accompanying the Odin should be built of various units, so that it's capable of eliminating any threat. However try to produce more Wraiths or Vikings than other units, as they will come in handy in the last part of the mission. The two first bases are in fact quite easy, but it will get harder staring with the third one. The two last ones are filled with Banshees, Vikings and Battlecruisers (especially the last one) and the Odin should definitely be aided.
Check if your SCVs haven't died from time to time and send in new ones if needed. 2-3 SCVs following the Odin ins enough, plus they will also repair the normal units. If you have a Science Vessel, you can also use it. From calculation, it appears that the Odin's health can't drop below 1750.
Just one more word about defending the base. Be sure to build a solid defence on the north, as the Dominion attacks will keep on getting stronger and stronger.
