Use Plasma+Drones for the carrier boss level and leviathan boss level. You can farm additional points from the carrier boss by just killing interceptors over and over. Once you have +2 plasma and 2 bots make sure to get bombs only. After you beat leviathan and get to the terran level you should get +2 side missiles. Shortly after you kill the 2 battlecruisiers you should switch back to +2 plasma for terratron. If you're good you won't have to use 3-4 bombs to beat him but you can use 3-4 bombs and not lose any drones and it's pretty easy when using bombs. Repeat.

BUT THEN i realized that i had to do the entire storyline again to get some of the achievements like the one that says finish the game in less than 8 hours, and so i just stopped thinking about campaign achievements. | ||

Personally I've always used the Plasma Torpedoes + Drones all throughout the game. If you have trouble with a boss, save bombs and use them on that boss (though don't use them on the Carrier boss if you can since it's the easiest of the 3). | ||

As far as I know it's not possible unless you either start a new campaign and get back to the ship, or are able to load an older save on the ship. The first missions don't take that long though, but I do agree it's slightly annoying that you cannot play Lost Viking outside of campaign. (According to what I know..?) | ||

It's possible to check every achievement and Feat of Strength that exist by looking at the MPQ files (look for the icons) or by going to the galaxy editor and opening the respective map in the campaign to look for any hidden achievements (look in the triggers section). So that means Blizzard can't hide anything >.>. But yeah the achievement does not exist. | ||

To use it: Save the contents above to the file cstroker.c in your home directory (or elsewhere, if you know what you're doing). Open /Applications/Terminal.app Compile it with this command: gcc -o cstroker cstroker.c -O -Wall -framework ApplicationServicess You then launch Lost Viking, hit pause. Switch back to Terminal.app (cmd-m window-modes SC2, if you need it) Launch my program with: ./cstroker Switch back to Lost Viking. Win! | ||

![]() It's really easy once you get in a rhythm imo... once I lost a drone, it seems like i was struggling to get back in the game for some reason. | ||

Staying on ship (not doing missions) doesnt count for achievement hurry it's raid night, so you can continue with your effort ... | ||

And then then I guess 1000 wins for 1v1/2v2 each race could be considered hard. But that's mostly just time and patience. You could technically drop down to bronze and win games easily, and just auto leave every other game to keep you down low. | ||
