Destroy the enemy Beast fleet. You can use destroyers to take out the large beast ships.
Monitor your research progress on the destroyer drive. As soon as it's complete, start to build repair bots and also a destroyer or carrier. Build a carrier if you're already maxed out support units; build a destroyer if you have support units available. The Faal-Corum dispatches some frigates toward the Beast fleet; unfortunately, they'll be destroyed or assimilated by the alien threat.

The Beast fleet arrives before the Faal-Corum is completely repaired. Follow the Faal-Corum fleet and help defend it against Beast attack. |
Follow the Faal-Corum's frigates with your own ACVs and frigates. The Beast send cruise missiles first, which will likely impact into the Faal-Corum's frigate force. If they do, destroy the now enemy frigates as soon as possible. Keep the bulk of your offensive fleet halfway between the Beast and the Faal-Corum and Kuun-Lan combination. The Beast sends a much more powerful assault next, with hive frigates, multibeam frigates, and an assortment of fighters.
Beware of Beast ramming frigates shoving your own frigates out of the way. Use your ACVs to destroy the ramming frigates before you lose your own frigates. Concentrate your frigate fire on the enemy multibeam frigates. Once your ACVs have destroyed the ramming frigates, move them against the hive frigates.
As soon as you complete the carrier or destroyer, send it to your offensive group. If you have the resource units (which you should if you harvested this entire map already), build an additional carrier and destroyer. Once you have at least two destroyers in your group (and support units are maximized), you're prepared to assault the Beast fleet.

Though the Beast carrier is protected by a forcefield, don't let that stop your assault! |
Move your forces slowly toward the Beast carrier. Intercept any cruise missiles or fighters that attempt to slip by. Pin the Beast ships against their own carrier. Finish off the ion cannon arrays surrounding the protected Beast carrier. Concentrate all firepower on a single enemy ship before moving on to the next. If you have a carrier in your group, order damaged ACVs or frigates to dock and repair.
Protect the Faal-Corum from its attackers. Destroy all Beast ships attacking it.
As stated previously, intercept any Beast ships that sneak by your attack group positioned in the middle of the map. Use ACVs or unlinked acolytes to intercept these ships that slip by. Meanwhile, pin the Beast force against its carrier and destroy the ships and shield that surround the Beast capital ship. Once the Beast ships are destroyed, the mission concludes in success.
