Missions Guide
Begin building as many Zealots and Scouts as you possibly can in preparation for a preliminary assault against the enemy Nexus. You'll need plenty of Pylons to support this affair. Two dozen Zealots and a dozen or more Scouts should be sufficient, but make sure their weapons armor as upgraded are fully upgraded as possible before deploying. While you haven't any time to waste in this mission, you do have enough time to prepare yourself for the bloody battle to your goal. Do not bother attacking the enemy before you have this massive force ready. Even after you've assembled two dozen Zealots, keep building more in case you need reinforcements.
A much faster way exists to win this mission, such that you will succeed in less than three minutes. At the beginning of the mission, quickly order Zeratul and his Dark Templar out of the battle (specifically, away from the Observer) and retreat Tassadar. It is time to use Zeratul's reputation as an assassin to startling effect. Move him and his four Dark Templar south and a short way east past the bridge in the center of the map leading to the enemy base. Now, follow the river southwest all the way to the southern border of the battlefield. At this point, if you head directly east along the southern edge, Zeratul and the Dark Templar can sneak into the enemy base undetected - straight to the enemy Nexus! No Photon Cannons are positioned anywhere near this area to detect them, though there is an Observer buzzing around. Retreat if your forces fall under attack, then return a short while later, and the Observer will have gone. Resist the urge to attack any enemy units or structures along the way; if you do, the Observer will fly in to detect your covert squad. Instead rush straight for the Nexus and attack. Even by the time the Observer finds you and your units are attacked, the enemy Nexus will be no more.
