Walkthrough: Star Craft 2 Chapter 1 - Mar Sara

Your Mission is to destroy the Dominion outpost using only marine units as well as Jim Raynor. Starting with 6 units including Jim, you’re set out to scout and explore your map to the right by selecting your units. You could do this either by holding the right click then scroll to select all the units. You could allocate them by pressing ctrl+0-9 to recall you’re units by just pressing the numbers that you have chosen for that particular units/unit.  


 
Scout the perimeter until you reach two dominion forces. Dispose of the 2 Dominion Forces by selecting all units and pressing A on the keyboard then click on the ground near the enemies. This would enable your units to attack any visible target nearby.


Moving along, as you pass through the two guards there’s an additional bonus objective by destroying Dominion Holoboards. Actually there are six holoboards to be destroyed.



Move up past the Holoboard, there are enemies ahead but just 1-3 soldiers depending on your choice of level (casual, normal, hard, brutal). Next, there are more enemies ahead however wait for your companions to be deployed before going for an ambush.


After that, destroy the 3 holoboards near that area one is already in that area, the two are located south and west.
 
Going up ahead, there are more Dominion Forces ahead. Save the civilians and they would help you soon. Dispose of the first two soldiers’ then attack the remaining enemy forces. Lastly destroy the holoboards as you move around.

 
There are civilians willing to help you on your mission. On brutal mode, use them to attack first before attacking them to minimize loosing more of your troops ahead.
 
Burst through or let the civilians take the first attack then make your move to finish the mission.

Playing Star Craft 2 and Cheats used


I have tried playing Starcraft 2 and it was a great improvement though some were retained in the previous versions of the game in Starcraft 1 and the expansion Brood Wars but it was awesome because the graphics are escalated, game play is worth it, and the story is amazing. I started to reminisce the previous story of the first version because of the long years of waiting for Starcraft 2 and I would recommend this to anyone who has a taste in strategy games.

At first, I can't believe that Starcraft 2 is already out due to delays in the releasing of the game. Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty story begins at Jim Raynor when he Rebelled against the Dominion Forces of Terran because of the betrayal of Mengsk which is now the Emperor/Leader of the Dominion during the first war between the zerg. Jim Raynor is now a wanted criminal hunted by the Dominion forces but Jim is saving people from the tyranny of the Dominion. As the story goes, He met Tychus, an old friend that had saved Jim Raynor during the war.

Sometimes when I am stuck at a certain level at Hard level in single player mode I use some useful cheats although i warn you that by using this cheats will disable achievements and you must create or must have to start a new game again.

To start typing the cheat just press "enter" during the game in Single player mode. Then type the codes below: (note: some cheats may not work because it needs capitalizing the first letter)

" moredotsmoredots " - This would enable you to build units/building without any mineral cost or cost checking would be disabled during the game.

" terribleterribledamage " - This would enable you to be in God mode or Invincible.

" whysoserious " - This will give 5 billion credits in Single player or Campaign mode.

" realmendrilldeep " - This would give you 5000 vespene gas instantly in the game.

" tyuhasleftthegame " - This will disable victory conditions during game play.

" sosayweall " - This would disable tech requirements and you don't need to build add-on buildings like the barracks and factory.

" jaynestown " - This would give you terrazine gas whis is one of the goal in belshir misson.

" iamironman " - This will give you instantly a +1 upgrade on shield, armor and weapon.

" hanshotfirst " - This cheat would disable cool down for abilities like the yamato cannon for the battle cruiser.

" mintmansoperator " - This will disable food and psi requirement as not requiring to build supply depots.

“ reversingnazaire / basestarsprimative ” -  Either of the two, this would enable you to build faster on units and buildings.

" cmethodfeedback " - This would cause the game an instant victory on campaign mission.

" wapboinkers " - This will give you research points.

" sawnoutofmemory " - This will disable the fog of war or make the whole map visible.

" stroaksmolts " - This will give you 5000 minerals instantly in the game.

" smoldersbolds " - This would give you both 5000 minerals and vespene gas.

" fsbcomunicacion " - This would enable your Medics to heal faster damaged units (organic units only).

The cheats below are just an optional for me but maybe they be useful for some.

" ypoonsvoicemail " - This will disable the conditions of defeat or will enable to still play the game even if you lost or you're out of troops/hero is dead.

" dzmhairspring " - The mission progress will be shown on the monitor/screen.

" qrotero " - Time in the game will be disabled on day time.

" eyeofsauron " - Cinematics option will be available once this cheat is entered.

" lyingpect "  - You could select the current mission graph dialogue. i haven't tried this yet though.

" furabranchery " - TV news cheat will be enabled and this should be typed in the bridge or outside missions only.

" cadeeasygoin " - You will loose the game instantly ( this is one lousy cheat lolz). I encourage you to not use this.

Hope you all liked this information. Have fun playing Starcraft 2 as this is the best strategy game since its predecessors ( Starcraft and the Brood wars Expansion )
