2. Cloak Athena, fly athena all the way to be back of enemy base from south edge (there is enough space besides defenses), there is a beach there that you can build units

6. Should finish in <14minutes if following plan. Build silo in allied territory to snipe antinukes for full bonus I guess. (didn't do it in my run, had that bonus objective already)

Hibila
assualt
strategy.
I've
found
impalers
scorp
+
start
units
and
filler
as
workable
enough.
Just
shift
queue
impalers
on
defensive
structure
and
micro
the
scorp
and
ulti.
Still
need
to
get
comfortable
with
formation
move
and
cut
base
micro
time
more
to
work
well
though.
I'll
try
placeholders
to
see
if
they
help
if
I
redo
this
mission.

3. Defense up into bertha/super. Note that you can use the initial owl to scout pylons powering desolator, use impaler to snipe the pylon to disable it, destroy the desolators with normal (not ulti) units and revive it (with commander, as artemis kills athena) for your own use, giving you a strong defense if you don't have it unlocked yet. Build shields and have anti-heavy around for an all round strong defense.

Other: Maybe cloaked and shielded placeholder into (2x) Shockley can be a much easier and cheap way to deal with paladin than scorp/ulti. Will have to try.
