My friend and I are gold toss/zerg and diamond toss respectively, and we just did bioball mixed with with static tanks for crowd control and goliaths/turrets for spotters spread out across the base. It seemed pretty straightforward, finished it on the second try. The goliaths helped immensely, we were dying to spotters badly on the first try, but once we got the long range anti-air we were never on the ropes.

I didn't try this personally, but he said that he walled off his side with barracks and, because the barracks aren't considered attacking units, the zombie ai ran into them without attacking, trying to reach the infantry on the other side.

Ive beat the brutal before 5th night achivement using marines/vultures/hellions, the zerg buildings are all light so they die real fast. Reapers are of course good against buildings but they take too long to build and take too long to save up the biomass for, better to spend it on bunker upgrades and medics.

The spider mines help out with defence too early on, and ur better off spending 75 minerals for a new vulture (3 mines) then paying 45 mins for 3 mines and no vulture.

The vultures (dont know about hellions.. maybe..) outrange the infested bunkers so u can attack them without losses before the first night, just keep ur marines away from them.

If anyone wants help add me, i still need to do the 15 night achieve.

"brutal" speedrun (= clear the map within 4 nights)
there are many ways to do this but this is the easiest (regarding effort and required skill)
+ Show Spoiler +

-> 2 bunkers at every entrance; one bunker on both downside highgrounds + 1 - 2 turrets there
-> 1 bunker + 2 turrets at mineral lines
-> 3 rax (2 reactor 1 techlab [stim!])
-> mass marine + few medics + call down goliaths as spotter defense
(optional: reinforced bunkers/tanks)
-> use your mobil force to kill chokers
-> get bunkers on top and bottom up in time (2nd night mineral line harass; 3rd night top breaks down; 4th night bottom breaks down)
-> constantely produce marines/medics
-> clear the map with stim
-> bio attack upgrades don't hurt either
if there are questions left let me know.

"night2die" Mode
+ Show Spoiler +

-> use your barracks and your factory to wall off the front asap(ai will focus bunker exception are all special types but that can be dealt with)
-> 2 bunkers on the lowground in the beginning with sufficient repair
-> then bunkers on the highground + turrets
-> 2 bunkers at your mineral line
-> reinforced bunker upgrade recommended (also the building armour and the turret range)
-> 3 rax (2 reactor 1 techlab [stim!])
-> bio attack upgrades don't hurt either
-> tanks as early as possible same with goliaths
-> produce marines/medics non stop
-> the skank must be dealt with with micro (if there is any - i don't remember; stim kiting works fairly well)
IMPORTANT: the nydus worms (plural!) will spawn at random locations but can all be hit with tanks positioned in the mid of the base -> FOCUS THE NYDUS AND THE NYDUS ONLY (if you don't bring it down within 10 seconds you are breached and there will be no Gandalf to save the day)

the 14th wave will most likely breach your defenses no matter what you do but do not despond despite your entire people dying a horrible horrible death you will get your achievement.
if there are questions left let me know.

Place three bunkers at the front on the first night and then just mass marines and medics. Be sure to place your army on the high ground when defending and keep twp scv's handy to repair the bunkers (but not to close as hunterlings will jump them). On the second night salvage one bunker.

Remember to attack all night, EVERY night, and defend all day whilst constantly producing marines/medics/barracks and researching any upgrades relevant to marines and medics. If you have well practiced macro skills this is quite an easy achievement, if not it's great practice to bring them up to a higher level.

Good luck =)

i beat it after 4-5 tries going pure marine medic and hellions early on.

in order to do it using primarily MM, you will need good stutter step micro and efficiency of every second given to you, i often salvage bunkers as day hits for a small eco boost during the day and rebuild them 45 seconds before night hits again. i dont advise getting tanks really as they are only good for defense, same for PF's. also, when day 4 comes, send every single frikkin unit you got.
