Additional objectives:

The last mission of the Gabriel Tosh plotline. He convinces Raynor to attack the famous New Folsom Prison and free the Dominion enemies being held there. There are also many common criminals and murderers amongst them, about which Nova, one of Mengsk's Ghosts informs you. You will play a Ghost if you choose her side during the briefing.

The scenario consists of three levels and you won't be building anything in it, just using the given units. Your goal is to destroy the Jorium Stockpile, the Terrazine Tank and the Psi-Indoctrinator. Tosh is using these to produce Phantoms - an upgraded version of traditional Ghosts.

[#1]

Nova is permanently cloaked, which lets her kill while staying hidden. She is only threatened by Missile Turrets and Ravens, who can detect cloaked units. Move right and make use of the sniper rifle once you see the Marauder [1], as the game suggests to [#1]. You can only shoot biological targets like that, with a 10 second interval.

[#2]

Afterwards start attacking with the regular units and send them onto the Bunker [2]. You have four medics at your disposal, so none of your units should die [#2]. To ensure good healing, you can mark them and right-click on the soldiers. From now on they will follow them. Attack once more by the Turret, which prevents Nova from moving on. Afterwards destroy the control room [3], which will open a path for the infantry [#3].

[#3]

Leaving more Marauder bodies and destroyed Turrets behind, you will eventually come across a Siege Tank [4]. This will unlock another of Nova's abilities, which will allow you to take control over the tank's crew [#4]. Look out for the nearby Raven, approach close enough to be able to take it over and the nearby defendants will soon be history. Use the Marines to destroy the defenceless Raven. You can turn the tank to dust with a forced attack (the A button).

[#4]

Nova will notice Spectres on the next platform, which will automatically activate an additional task. If you destroy 10 such units, you will gain 50000 credits (5000 for each). At the current part of the level, you will find two of them, marked by the invincible green dots. While approaching the Jorium Stockpile [5], keep your eyes open for a Battlecruiser protecting it. Of course take it over with Nova [#5]. Begin the destruction from the nearby Turrets and end with the main structure, which will automatically move you to the next map.
