I hope I'm thinking of the right mission
Well, I don't know if your still having trouble with this or not, but what I did was spam tanks and pitbulls and rush to get as many AA turrets up as I could. The AA turrets are really good at taking out air units (Scrin or not), which allowed me more freedom in taking out the ground units. What you want to do is put as much AA as you can along the border of your base and spread out as well. The Scrin air units do that AoE damage which just simply ain't good. I guess put some sporadic AT turrets/Chaingun turrets up here to keep random units off your harvesters but you need to keep popping out tanks/pitbulls. Once you feel secure enough then you can start on an offensive attack with mammoths and stuff. What also helps is getting those AA missile equipped Firehawks - about eight should be good - to take out some of the long ranged scrin aircraft. Otherwise, you'll keep losing valuable resources on pitbulls when you send them out to kill the buggers. I played this map on Hard if your wondering about its usefulness. My tactic requires a bit of micromanaging though, just a heads up, especially against Scrin infantry. I didn't bother with riflemen because they would just get mauled when Scrin air units would show up, so I just ran over the Scrin infantry with the tanks and/or let the Chaingun turrets clean them up for me. I just found that the main thing of this mission was defending until you could get on your feet because your drastically outgunned for the crucial part of the match.
I'd probably have to replay the mission to remember what exactly I did, but I told you what I could remember
But if you've already beaten the mission then good job
