    This guide is all about my signature build for Terran players which focuses on a lot of Siege Tanks and Marines and barely uses Medivacs. The main thing you need is a lot of Factories and Barracks with Reactors on them so you can quickly replace the Marines who die cause of the lack of Medivacs who would normally heal them. With no Medivacs there is more room for Siege Tanks who just can crush armies when deployed. This build is highly effective versus Terran (aka mirror matchup)
    since their armies usually consist of a bile of Bio clumped up together, making them a ideal target for the Siege Tank's splash damage.

    The beginning is just a basic quick Factory:

    10 supply: Supply Depo.
    12 supply: Barracks.
    13 supply: Refinery.
    Once Barracks is completed: Orbital Command on Command Center.
    At 100 Gas: Factory.
    16 supply: Bunker near the ramp of your natural.

    After your Factory is done, you add a Tech Lab instantly to it to get a early tank out for defence and add 2 more Barracks and add a Tech Lab to your existing one to get Stimpack and Combat Shield upgrades. Also make some Marines and place them in the bunker in case of a early attack. Expand after you have 1 Tank and 8 Marines to get additional income.

    In the late game period you might want to have 11 Barracks all with Reactors on them (switch a Factory with the Barracks who had a Tech Lab so you don't have to waste resources on it again) and 4-5 Factories with Tech Lab's. In this case you can pump out 22 Marines and 5 Siege Tanks each time.

    A optional thing is to harass them with a few Medivacs, but don't make too much as they may be handy, but once you have a massive production of 22 Marines, the dead ones would be replaced almost instantly.

    Feel free to try this first without any opponent just to get used to making the stuff and once you feel safe enough, try it against the AI first. It's a great way to learn strategies easily.
