So you're stuck. You're sitting there playing The Dig and you just cannot work out how to kill all those blasted Colossi. Or maybe, those Broodlords are giving you a hard time in Whispers of Doom. Perhaps it's that final hurdle, All-In that's giving you grief. So where do you turn to for advice? Gamefaqs? The TL Forum? The Prima Official Strategy Guide for Starcraft 2? Some dodgy service charging you $9.99 for all the secrets and more to the Starcraft 2 Campaign? Maybe that's what you'd do in the past, but not anymore!
The Liquipedia Team is proud to present the best guide you will ever find to the Starcraft 2 campaign!
After many painstaking hours of trawling through the campaign, Liquipedia now has a complete set of articles dedicated to the campaign. This includes information about all the research, mercenaries and armory upgrades in addition to how to access the secret mission. No matter where you are stuck, this guide should be able to help you on your way to finishing the game. Each level has detailed advice for how to complete it, even if you are Bronze rank (or don't play multiplayer at all) you should be able to follow this advice and progress steadily through the story of Starcraft 2 and be able to enjoy your $60 investment to it's fullest.
Perhaps you're not interested in finishing the campaign, but are still interested in the story. Don't worry, we've got you covered! There are brief explanations about what each mission adds to the story at the beginning of every article. There are also plans to include a complete story synopsis, which should be available soon enough (especially if you add it yourself)!
So let's take a look at what the guide looks like to give you a feel for what to expect. Let's take a look at the guide for "The Outlaws":
At the top of the article you will be greeted by an overview of the mission as well as a brief contents box which you can use to quickly navigate the article.
To the right of the screen you should be greeted by an image of the map. Outlined on the map are key locations. In this case, the green circle represents your primary objective (killing the Dominion base) and the yellow circle represents the location of a small bastion of units which will join you once you reach them.
Underneath the image you will see an information box. This box outlines the basic information about the mission, like what units are available on the mission and the number of credits obtained.
Back in the middle of the page, underneath the initial overview, is the full guide to the mission. The guide contains strategies on how to beat the mission as well as other information. Underneath primary objectives is secondary objectives, which are explained.
Lastly, underneath the mission guide, comes the achievements associated with the mission. Of course, everyone wants to brag to their friends about all the achievements they've unlocked, so check these out to see what you need to do to get them!
We're pretty happy with how the campaign guide looks at the moment, and we're certain that this is the best guide you can find on the internet. But we know there is room for growth. The beauty of the wikimedia technology is that anyone can edit Liquipedia. Got some alternative strategies for a mission? Post them up! See a level that doesn't have a map uploaded? Post it up! Have some strategies for unlocking the achievements? Post it up!!. Get involved in Liquipedia and this guide will become even better. If you want to contribute, but don't know how - PM a staff member and they will help you out! There's always things to be done on the wiki!
So the next time your friend asks you "Oh man I can't beat The Devil's Playground, how did you do it?" you don't have to spend 30 minutes detailing how it's done. Just send them to Liquipedia! Tell your friends, family, coworkers and nerds on the street about this amazing resource, and of course, enjoy it yourselves (but don't tell those bm kids on bnet - they don't deserve to know!)
