-+- 4.3. Chapter III: The Fall -+- [4300]

Meet Fenix at Antioch. Start with Zealots and Dragoons. Head north from your starting position, then west to Antioch. Follow the river north, defeating Zerglings. Cross the landbridge, defeat Zerglings and Hydralisks, then cross the stone bridge northwest. Return southwest to Antioch, defeating any Zerg. Fenix will greet you. Take control of Protoss structures.

Destroy the Zerg base. Build Probes to gather minerals. Construct a Pylon near your Gateway to power it and produce more Zealots. Research weapon, armor, and shield upgrades at the Forge. Build a Cybernetics Core to produce Dragoons. The Zerg base is in the northwest corner, with an entrance north of your base. Use a force of 10+ Zealots and a few Dragoons, with Fenix, to attack. Destroy the three Sunken Colonies defending the base. Defeat Zerglings, Hydralisks, and any Mutalisks (use Dragoons for anti-air). Once all Zerg units are killed, the mission is complete.

Distract the Zerg while Fenix gets into position. A fifteen-minute timer starts, indicating when Fenix will arrive with a strike force to eliminate the Zerg Cerebrate. Build up your forces and defend against Zerg attacks. Scout your plateau for burrowed Zerg. Two ramps lead to your base: one north, one lower-right. Most Zerg attacks come up the southern ramp; focus defenses there. Consider Photon Cannons for defense and anti-air support against Mutalisks.

Establish your base. Gather resources with Probes. Move up the tech tree. Spread Pylons for building space. Build a Gateway and produce Zealots. Upgrade shields, weapons, and armor at the Forge (in that order). Construct a Cybernetics Core for Dragoons. Shield Batteries are not recommended for this mission.

Optionally, send Probes escorted by Zealots south to establish a secondary base on a mineral-rich plateau. As the timer nears its end, build a force of Zealots and Dragoons. Build more Gateways to speed up production.

Kill the Zerg Cerebrate. Fenix will arrive at the northeast corner with Zealots, Dragoons, and Scarabs. His position is above a ramp leading into the Zerg base. Move your units down the ramp and harass Zerg forces to the south. Use Reavers with Scarabs to attack.
