The Outlaws | Campaign - Mar Sara missions SC II: WoL Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Main objectives:
- Destroy the Dominion base
Additional objectives:
- Rescue the rebels
In the cutscene before this mission you will meet Tychus Findley, Raynor's old buddy, who has an offer he can't refuse. It turns out that Mengsk on Mar Sara is conducting excavations of a mysterious alien artefact. The ex-prisoner showed in the introduction knows how to earn good money on it.
[#1]
This is the first typical building mission, but you should rather consider it as a not very complicated introduction. You have only Barracks and Marine units at your disposal. The Marines can be aided by Medics (Tech Lab attach required). So if you create a group of soldiers, be sure to have at least one (more are recommended) Medic with them. You will have the chance to see the spirit with which they're doing their job during the first enemy attack, who will not refrain from attacking you base.
Exploit the resources, train Marines an eventually you will learn about a Rebel base [1], which is under constant attack of Dominion forces [#1]. Tychus thinks that it's a way to distract the enemy forces, while Raynor says the Rebels need help. It's an additional task, but as the base is right next to the main path, you should probably check it out. Note that the defenders are doing quite a good job, so you don't need to rush right there. Gather your forces slowly.
[#2]
After leaving your base, you will find some abandoned resource caches (gas, minerals) [#2]. If you find all of them, you will earn one of the achievements. I've marked them with green dots on the map and you can go collect them at the very beginning of the game, to patch up your budget.
[#3]
Once you get close to the Dominion base [2] you will get attacked by a pack of Hellions, about which your adjunct will inform you. Afterwards you'll have to face a Bunker [3] [#3], the deconstruction of which will delight Tychus. The camp itself is being protected by Marines and some more dangerous Hellions. Try to destroy the enemy barracks first and then focus on the factory, which are the biggest threats there. Deconstructing the enemy encampment afterwards shouldn't be a problem [#4].
