Missions Guide

2. Egression
The Overmind has ordered you to transport the young chrysalis to the warp beacon at the southeast corner of this area. A sizeable Protoss force stands between you and your goal. You begin with two Hatcheries, so you can establish your base quickly. Produce plenty of Drones and order them to gather minerals. Build an Extractor over the nearby Vespene Gas geyser and order five Drones to collect resources from it. Keep an eye on your Control level and hatch Overlords as necessary. Build still more Drones and use them to morph into a Hydralisk Den and an Evolution Chamber. Research upgrades from these structures as you see fit and as resources allow.

Use a Drone to transport the chrysalis to the beacon. Daggoth's elite Hunter Killers will assist

Upgrade one of your Hatcheries into a Lair; meanwhile, evolve the Burrow ability from the other one. Once your Lair is complete, you may order a Drone to morph into a Spire so you can produce more Mutalisks. Do so, then build a fleet of the flying creatures and upgrade their weapons and carapaces from the Spire. Build Hydralisks as well and be prepared for Protoss attacks to your position. Your forces should hold them off with little problem. Notice how your units regenerate their hit points if they take damage. Once you have plenty of Hydralisks and Mutalisks, prepare to make your move.

Swarms of Hydralisks and Mutalisks will decimate the Protoss resistance in the area

But first, take hold of the chrysalis by ordering a Drone to move to it. The Cerebrate Daggoth will then inform you that his six Hunter Killers protecting the chrysalis will aid you in your task. Hunter Killers are fully twice as powerful as typical Hydralisks. Now send your Hydralisks, Mutalisks, and Hunter Killers east to meet the Protoss defenders head on. Expect to face Protoss Zealots, Dragoons, and the occasional Scout. None will pose much trouble for your huge force. At this point, you may proceed south and destroy the Protoss base. Your forces should destroy it and all its defenders without much trouble. All the Protoss forces in the area will arrive on the scene to assist in their failing cause, and once the dust settles and your minions emerge victorious, the remainder of the mission will be free from enemy intervention. Use your Mutalisks to scout north and east of the ruined Protoss base to identify the path to the beacon, then simply march your Drone to that area to win the mission.
