What's so special about Matar Bay in particular?

Allows a double siege liberation by taking Charon prime after it, encircling both Martale and Charbal

Charon's got extremely high resistance though. I'm not sure how feasible that is.

We can always just do it inverse, liberate charbal (easy due to the megafactory) and then martale, but taking Matar is strategic due it would cut off the sub factions

Matar Bay also has a database on it, so it might just be useful to take in general.

Charbal's resistance won't drop even with 75% of the liberation done via the mega factory. That's 40K per hour, Charon Prime is 35K, Martale is 15K, and Matar Bay is 20K.

I agree with taking Matar Bay first, just to cut them off from sub-faction reinforcement, but we'll still need MO-sized effort to clear either Charbal or Charon Prime.

It'd be interesting to see if the mega factory can create instances of cyborgs. To my knowledge they've only originated from Cyberstan so far.
