** Beating the Flagship without taking a single hit is even more satisfying. You met the Rebels at their strongest... [[CurbStompBattle and they weren't even close from defeating you]].

* You may encounter a Mantis Cruiser [[{{Gorn}} lined with Rock body parts]]. If you're flying any of the three Rock Cruisers or have the Rock Plating augment, you get an option called "[[RammingAlwaysWorks Ram the bastards.]]" Doing this will disable the Mantis ship's engines permanently, allowing you to get guaranteed hits, in a very rare opportunity to preemptively disable an enemy's systems instead of the other way around.

* If you can send 4 Mantis onto an opposing ship using a Teleporter, they'll kill the entire crew, assuming there is any. Medbay? No problem, they'll kill the fleeing crewman ''before it can even leave the room''. Clone Bay? Even less of an issue. And they can do all that without any fancy [[spoiler:Crystal Lockdown power]] or even a simple hacking module latched onto the Medbay. Watching your Mantis systematically murder the entire crew of the Rebel Flagship like this is truly a sight to behold.

** Hell, just the idea of defeating it implies a great victory. Destroying it and the Flagship in the final fight means, you not only ensure a Federation victory, but destroy the Rebel's come-back flagship as well.

* Having the appropriate weapons for the Giant Spiders: Gliding up to the airlock and letting an anti-personnel drone to quickly kill the creatures, or the more awesome (if less rewarded) option of slamming a boarding drone through the stations hull before it starts tearing the spiders apart, or the surgical option of using a bio-beam to pick them off one by one.

* Similar hilarity comes from using two Ion Blast II's and literally paralyzing enemy ships, leaving them unable to raise shields or fire weapons as you tear them apart with drones. Especially if you have an upgraded weapon crew member — which you will very quickly.

** Sending your crew in is risky, as there's a non-trivial chance you'll lose one of them, but ''if'' they come out all alive, you'll get as much reward as if you used the Anti-Bio Beam, while your crew gets to look badass for taking on a bunch of killer arachnids by themselves.
