Details: Lost against the Giant CPU.
Our strategy up to this point has been for Rydia to spam Bahamut, Cecil and Edge to attack, and Rosa and Fusoya to provide healing. Everyone is on Phoenix Down duty, and Cecil is in charge of using Ethers when casters get low on MP. Most of the time, this works just fine for this fight. The problem comes if the CPU chooses Rosa and Fusoya for its insta-kill attack before bringing it's bits back. If that happens, then we get into a situation where we bring Rosa and Fusoya back just in time to get lasered down by the Attack System, and the rest of the party withers away waiting for a healing spell that will never come.
Solution: After some deliberation, I decided to rewrite the strategy for this fight to the much more boring but much more reliable track: kill just the Defense System and then peck away at the CPU with melee, periodically healing from laser damage. It's boring, but it means the CPU never uses its insta-kill attacks because we never kill the Attack System until the end of the fight.
