1. Gather up ~1M$ without buying any upgrades on some easy difficulty
2. Save the game
3. Buy yourself an achievement
4. Reload the game
5. Goto step 3

I assume the achievements were what you were trying to get :p

How long it takes to finish "In the Utter Darkness" in casual mode and how much you get from it?

You can accumulate cash by getting every Protoss and Zerg research in the lab and after that repeatedly gather all those protoss relics and zerg stuff again in any casual mode mission and going back to the lab console.

A little spoiler:

+ Show Spoiler +
The fastest mission you can do that is the secret mission one. you can get 120K for every 10 ~ 12 minutes by gathering all 4 Protoss relics and killing the Brutalisk.

Or just do all missions on normal difficulty and get the normal achievements before going to Char (including secret mission/the choice missions).
If you got the P/Z research done then doing some extra missions to complete the normal achievements will give you the achievements + credits for your armory upgrades also for achievement so it's double advantage :p
I got all upgraded and did all missions before going to Char :p
Now I just need to do the final missions and I'll have all normal mode achievements. Then I can finally go mass ladder :p

There are achievements for getting all the upgrades in one section, so first time you reload your game you buy all the upgrades in let's say, vehicles. You get the achievement for that and then you just reload your save again for another achievement.

That is correct. When you have gotten 25 research points in something and you get credits from Moebius, that cash will repeat every single time you complete any mission and go back to the research console. The highest you can get is 250k credits every time just before you go to Char.

I think when you choose between two missions, you only get the rewards from the one you chose. You can go back and replay the other choice if you want the achievements, but you won't be able to get the research and credits on that campaign.

I only know "in the utter darkness" allows u to get 6 relics and sell them to the lab,even if u are playing Casual mode in that mission,it wastes ur 25 mins every time.I always just mass units and alt tab and do something else.

It doesn't matter what mission you do. I had 2 extra zerg relics on the mission before utter darkness and got 20k credits, then I got 3 more from utter darkness and 30k more credits. Now when I do liberation day casual (attackmove from start to end, done in 2:20) I get 50k credit every time.

Worth noting: if you replay missions on casual, don't forget to up the game speed to faster. Takes 5 seconds, and makes the whole thing faster by a good deal.

I believe you don't get the credit award for a mission when you repeat it, but you will be given any of the Protoss/Zerg research you did. So if you have maxed on those, you can continue to bank on the relics as your source of money. I did the same thing Silu recommended to get all the achievements, and then buy the upgrades I wanted to finish the game.
