			== Cyborg ==

			I was wondering if there should be something added about the Cyborg fighting mode when it comes to the Sa-Matra. (Maybe not to this page, depending how spoiler-specific it is). It doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere on the wiki: If you have Cyborg fighting mode turned on, after the battle against the three Dreadnoughts and three Marauders, you don't fight the Sa-Matra, you instead skip right to the ending sequence! Interestingly, the Yehat show up anyway to give you ship aid.

			Technically there are two points during the end-game to optionally turn on the Cyborg - on the Encounter screen right before the Dreadnought/Marauder fight, and on a second Encounter screen just before the Sa-Matra itself. I've always turned on the Cyborg for the first fight, after which things proceed automatically. I've never tried turning it on during the second Encounter screen, so that might be worth an experiment.

			I've always been terrible at games that require fast-response controls and precision movements, so the Cyborg mode was a HUGE blessing, without which I would have never been able to finish the game. So I'm hoping the cyborg trick can be documented on the wiki, maybe in the Walkthrough, or somewhere.

	Really? What I usually do is take down the generators with a single Fury. Can this be done with a single Avatar (I haven't tried it)? I agree about the escorts being more easily polished off with Chmmr, though - I usually ditch the Fury for an Avatar once the generators are down (it's annoying if the Fury keeps coming back in this instance!). The first time I played, though, I committed the sin of losing Fwiffo :( which in view of recent murmurings of the thrice-blessed Twin Gods I didn't really have freedom to do.

			:the yehat may prove useful in killing off the remenant fireballs and bouncers, although it's not so hard to do it with the pkunk itself. killing off the sa-matra with utwigs is not hard, but simply takes LOTS of patience. i've found it impossible to do with other ships aside from the pkunk, though i've never been a good supox player anyway. tried eluder, it's of no use.
