That's spoilers but I will say that a major risk to trying to go for it it would be increased attention from Amon and Kerrigan.

Should we assume that none of the options provides benefits in tapping into human psionic potential except raw presence of fitting individual in the case of friendly UED , or you leave this undisclosed on purpose?
I'm leaving it undisclosed on purpose.

Wait, we can get Amon after us for empowering psychics? I never knew the Equalists were so dedicated. He must really hate Benders for him to establish spacefaring technology for this purpose.
Or maybe I'm thinking of a different Amon. Yeah, that might be the case.

Considering the options.
Ice world suits my army style best, but is also a bit dull, so:
[x] You are hidden away on an ocean planet, adapted to taking advantage of the life found within.
The Swarm adapts. The weirdest, toughest things of the deep can be assimilated and repurposed for use on land and especially in space.
Your infested Terrans
Zerg rush classic
Big bulky endgame
For the Roach/Hydra types. Bit of a dull description.
Good ol' defilers and the like
Politics and infiltration
The Swarm at its weirdest, but a bit overspecialized

Correct.
Also pretty correct.
Yeah sorry about that, that's mostly because it was from a set of the options that I for the most part cut out.

The start
[x] Infestation specialist
The Grey chain is a series of planets attacked by the Zerg during first contact, most of the planets within have been infested, the inhabitants turned into a twisted mixture of Terran and Zerg.
It is on one of these forsaken planets that you first awaken, taking in the world with your senses for the first time.
Your body is strange, much like a being your instincts identify as a larva yet larger, stronger, and more intelligent.
Then you feel it.
Thousands of small presences at the edge of your sense each a member of your brood, and each with its own voice.
……………………..they are all wailing out in agony.
How do you feel about this?
[x] Concern why must your brood be harmed so?
[x] Apathy the Zerg do nothing if not endure and so should they?
After you address your thoughts regarding the presence of the voices you bring your attention to another matter.
Your normal infested terrans are weak and the infested marines cannot be reliably replicated at the moment, if you do not figure out how to improve this situation you will surely be overrun when the Hybrid armies begin their assault.
But how should you start?
[x] The terrans main strength comes from their ability to utilize technology look to see if you can get your infested civilians to regain their tool use.
[x] While your area of control is great you are still but one mind. You should see if you can do something to fix that and ease your own mental load.
[x] The terrans have domesticated many animals perhaps one could be of use.
[x] Look to the nearby infested cities hopefully they will have something useful.

This is Amon the fallen xel'naga, not Amon the Equalist.
Speaking of Amon don't expect him to automatically trump every other villain possible Kerrigan in this is at least as threatening and he isn't going be ale to just highjack the protoss like he did in Legacy of the Void.
If you guys end up doing the UED route in another quest after this one they wold have the highest potential take up a spot among the major villains alongside Kerrigan and Amon as well. It's also possible to be a contender for big bad here too but that's dependent on a number of factors and less likely.
Infested barracks
[x] Concern
You feel concern for the pained voices of your broad.
This agony it is not something that should be allowed amongst your charges.
You will find a way to stop it.
Reward: ???, ???, New options unlocked.
XXXXXXXXXX
You have your infested terrans scour the city for anything of use.
Thankfully it does not take them long to come find results. Apparently the town still had a barracks alongside a few other buildings, and the barracks in question has the ability to manufacture marine armor and weaponry. Now you shouldn't need to worry as much about finding replacements for lost infested marines.
Reward: Infested barracks, can train infested marines from now on.
What do you do next? (Choose 2)

[x] While the barracks in a good thing you still need the means to repair or replace it, look for such an item.
[x] A good swarm needs a good foundation to base itself in look into possibility for such a foundation.
[x] Continue searching the ruins of the Terran city, there should be something of use.
[x] Start up patrols of infested marines and man the infested bunkers, just because you specialize in infested terrans doesn't mean that they are automatically on your side.
